State Shipping Laws: Massachusetts

Summary

Massachusetts passed new direct shipping legislation in 2006. The new law has a limit on how much wine an individual consumer can receive from and aggregate of wineries every year. Unless wineries can be assured that they won't be penalized for being the one that goes over the annual limit, we advise them not to ship. Most importantly, FedEx and UPS are NOT shipping into Massachusetts.
