Shipping Information.

Currently, we cannot ship directly to customers in the following states: Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Delaware, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachussetts, Missisippi, Montana, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah & Vermont.

As we gain permission to ship to any of these states, we will update this page appropriately.

We can ship to the non-allowed states via licensed businesses. (Example: ABC Liquor Store in state XX allows you to pay a nominal fee for taxes, etc., and they will receive wine shipments for you. Check with your local liquor store or wine shop.)

Summer shipping restrictions now in effect: At this point it is too hot in most of the country to ship via UPS Ground. The only states we recommend shipping to via Ground at this time are Oregon and Washington. If you choose to have your wine shipped via Ground this time of the year, you run a good chance that your wine will arrive 'cooked'. We will be glad to hold your shipments, free of charge, in our cellar until it is cool enough to ship. Please indicate this choice in the comments field when ordering. Wine is a dynamic product and we strongly suggest shipping viaUPS 3-Day or Air - OREGON WINE MERCHANTS WILL NOT REPLACE WINES DAMAGED BY EXTREME TEMPERATURES DURING SHIPPING. If you choose to ship via UPS Ground during the summer months, we will email you a release/disclaimer form that must email back to us before we ship.

When you place an order through the Oregon Wine Merchants web site you will be required to provide an adult signature upon delivery. Wine is a fragile and dynamic commodity that can be damaged by extremes in temperature. Therefore we suggest that you ship your packages via air-service.

Although out of stock wines will be re-ordered promptly; there may be occasions when you may have to wait for wines you have been charged for. You will be notified accordingly.

Please note that we do not necessarily ship your order as soon as it was received. For example, if you order wine on a Thursday via 3-day shipping, we will generally wait until Monday to ship it, so that it does not spend the weekend on a UPS truck or in one of their warehouses where the climate may be adverse. If you need to have your order arrive by a specific date, you must call us at 1-800-OR WINES to make sure we can accommodate you.

Thank you for your business.
