Shipping Policy

$9.00 GROUND SHIPPING ANYWHERE* That's right, $9.00. Doesn't matter if it's 1 bottle, 5 bottles or 12 bottles, shipping Ground will now cost you only $9.00. That's 75¢ a bottle if you ship a case! Bay Area, New York, Florida, it doesn't matter... $9.00 per package, up to 12 bottles per package. This applies to all orders going forward. *Up to 12 bottles. Slightly higher prices for AK and Hawaii apply. $9 ground shipping applies to all orders placed Jan. 1, 2007 or later. BPWM highly recommends shipping air at all times, however ground service is available and inexpensive at $9 per box. Wine is a living thing, and temperature fluctuations can greatly affect it. We ship in insulated Styrofoam containers, but this will make little difference if your wine is sitting on the tarmac in Las Vegas for 3 hours. We monitor temperatures around the country, and will never ship during severe heat or cold spikes, unless we receive a written request otherwise. Please remember it is not just where you are, but where the wine is going through on its way to you. We generally always try to ship on Mondays or Tuesdays (depending where you are) to avoid your package spending the weekend in a warehouse. We charge you our actual shipping cost plus high-quality packaging, never more. We primarily use UPS for wine deliveries. You can also choose FEDEX, DHL, or one of many trucking companies that we can quote for you. BPWM will store your wine for up to 6 months from arrival date free of charge. After that time, you will be notified, and if you choose to keep holding your wine with us, a fee of $2.00 per case, per month will be applied. Thanks to space age technology, we ship practically anywhere. If your state is on the list at checkout, we can ship there. If not, email or call us to discuss other options. There are excellent storage options in the Napa Valley for longer-term storage. Some of these are: 55 Degrees Vintrust Vinfolio Napa Wine Lockers Contact us for details.
