Has anyone ever shipped a bottle of wine to a friend? I wanted to send a bottle and a cute wine glass I had made for my sister-in-law, packed it up really well and double-boxed it. Just went to UPS to send it, when they asked what was in it, I told him (not thinking for a second they wouldn't ship it), but the guy says they won't ship alcohol ‍♀️ who knew? I suppose I could come back and fudge it a little bit what's in there? Not sure what my options are.

You can't ship wine. I know we just went through a whole hassle to get our shipping licence for the winery. Illinois has one of the toughest wine shipping laws. You have to find a distributor/winery to ship wine for you

So. hypothetically speaking you can. there are beer swaps that do this all the time. Just don’t tell them and wrap the hell out of it!

Binny’s will ship for you typically. We send wine at Xmas for some clients.
