Sending 1 bottle of wine to usa?

Any information about how much/how to/ is it possible? The reason I don't want to carry it iin my luggage s it is very valuable (and for a friend) and I'm worried that if the airline loses the bag I'll be in trouble.
I've transported wine in checked bags before but the cost of this (paid by them) is freaking me about unlikely things (altho my bag has been lost before), so
I thought I read that I could send a bottle of wine as a gift on the cpb site and a form I needed to do it, but after 2 hours of searching I can't find it !@!

So does anyone know if I can so this - I've read such conflicting info that my head is spinning and
NO the shop where this is being purchased seems to know nothing about shipping it to the US - other than maybe they will package it and I can take it to a post office (but then I read that it is illegal to mail alcohol in the US without a brokers license - argh)
