States Authorized for Direct Shipment
Due to the ever-changing nature of wine shipping laws, we may be able to ship wines, directly or indirectly, to all states except Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Kansas, Maryland, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and West Virginia.

Shipping Costs
UPS is August Forest Cellars’s carrier of choice (common carrier). Ground shipping is provided by UPS at current market rates and is not marked up.
Wine is a Delicate Commodity
Wine is a perishable commodity. Wine does not like extremes of temperature: hot humid summer and cold winter weather may adversely affect the condition of your wine during shipment. We will do our best to ship wines during periods of favorable weather. However, if the customer requests that wine be shipped in spite of a weather hold, August Forest Cellars is not responsible for, and will not replace wine that is damaged by extreme weather conditions during shipment. When your wine order is picked up by the common carrier for delivery, responsibility for the wine becomes the responsibility of the purchaser.
