I placed my order and here was the shipping info on the receipt. Not sure why AZ would be such a greater delay (?).
Interestingly enough they have a 24 hour wine consultant hot line. Must get some interesting calls in the middle of the night.

I appreciate this separate thread. I want to add that when I last participated in the GS, this was supposed to be one of my hits. Good price - about $10 for two bottles of wine and a bottle opener - so I placed the order. Alas, nothing, not even a charge on my next cc statement. Ended up one hit short of my last four, and out of time to recoup. So, my questions to mikeefe are, was this possibly because this isn't allowed in Massachusetts, and did you try it? Thank you.

Thank you, Diamondback, I guess. Thought it might have been one of our relic Blue Laws. Then it must just be my luck. I was afraid of that... (And thank you again, seriously.)

Wow I got my shipping confirmation email yesterday and my wine was delivered today. They still haven't charged my AMEX nor has the hit posted to my DM account.
I'm going to have a fun time drinking it this weekend.
