Regardless, the best possible solution is to check liquids. If its wine you need to ship, the only really safe option is to have professional grade styrofoam shipping containers.
Slightly off topic, but my trip is going to go via Lima, Peru, so I'll mention it. DL has just announced to its employees that they are expecting an increase in freight business on their planes from varous South American cities, including Lima and Santiago de Chile (don't know about Buenos Aires). They will bump passriders even if there are seats if there's a weight issue from the freight.
They will also seat passriders with lower seniority if they have carryon luggage only, not checked luggage.
