Important Shipping Information
Adult Signature Required: You must be 21 years or older to buy wine. By placing your order with this winery you certify under penalty of perjury that you and the recipient are at least 21 years old. When the wine is delivered, the recipient will be required to show identification proving that he or she is at least 21 years old.
Distribution Network: All orders containing alcoholic beverages are shipped out from a licensee. We have partnered with New Vine Logistics to provide legal delivery of wine to approximately 80% of all zip codes in the United States. We are constantly working to add states to our distribution.
Wine Club Shipments: Wine and Wine Club Memberships are available online in the following states:
- AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, FL, ID, IL, IN, IA, LA, MA, MI, MO, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NM, NY, ND, OH, OR, TX, VA, WA, WV, WI, WY.
- Telephone orders are also available to residents of Minnesota. Please call 800-864-9463 for assistance.
Wine Selections and Wine Club Reorders: Wine orders and reorders of previous Wine Club selections are shipped within 2 days of the order. Distribution is restricted to the states noted above.
The First Step - Item Availability and Processing Time
Most items are available immediately. Certain states have highly regulated laws regarding the shipment of wine. Orders shipping to these states will require additional processing time. If your order will not be shipped within 2 business days, you will receive an email or phone call from our customer service department describing the cause of the delay and be given a new projected shipping date. If the new delivery schedule is not acceptable, you can cancel the order for a complete refund.
Standard Ground Shipping
The standard shipping option for all orders is the Ground Delivery service of United Parcel Service (UPS). Orders shipped Ground will typically arrive 3 - 6 business days after the order leaves the warehouse.
Express Shipping
Express Shipping, via UPS 3-Day Air, 2-Day Air and Next Day Air Saver, is available for an additional shipping charge. During the check out process the exact shipping charge for all deliveries within the Continental U.S. will be posted.
Order Tracking:
Please contact Customer Service for order tracking information.
Shipping & Handling Charges
Shipping & Handling charges are noted during the check-out process.
Multiple Delivery Attempts
If no one is available to receive and sign for the package, two subsequent attempts to deliver will be made. Wine orders require an adult signature, so whenever possible, we strongly encourage you to use a commercial business address to assure the fastest delivery time.
Back-Ordered Items
If one or more items that are to be shipped from our warehouse are on back order we will hold the entire shipment unless you instruct us to do otherwise. If you need the In-Stock items of your order to be shipped without delay, please contact us via phone or email and we will ship out the In-Stock items at no additional shipping cost.
Benefits of Using a Commercial Delivery Address
We strongly encourage you to provide us, whenever possible, with a commercial address for the delivery of your order. Having your order shipped to your work address provides all the following benefits:
- Wine orders require the signature of an adult.
- Your Order May Arrive Earlier - UPS Commercial Address Deliveries for all levels of service typically arrive earlier in the day than at residential addresses.
- You Won't Need to Worry About Missed Delivery Attempts -
All deliveries will occur before 4:30 on a business day. - You Will Experience Fewer Driver Errors -
UPS drivers know their commercial routes like the back of their hands (if not better). Fewer driver delivery errors occur with deliveries to commercial addresses. - Your Orders Won't Be Left Un-Attended
UPS Drivers make a judgment call as to the relative security of your packages left on front porches and similar locations. A work address eliminates any possible problems with package theft or damage.

Security Policy
We understand your concerns about online security. Because we share your concerns, we work diligently to keep our site a highly secure ordering environment so you can shop with confidence. The result is a Web site that offers you the highest level of service, convenience and trustworthiness.
The Secure Order Process
Using our e-business software, in conjunction with features built into popular browser software, our site provides advanced security for your online purchases. The following section describes how the secure order process works, from start to finish.
Important! Your order will be processed by Dry Creek Vineyard. We handle all order processing and order fulfillment. Your credit card statement will list Dry Creek Vineyard as the merchant for your order.
1. Entering Your Order
Every purchase is secure, and clicking a Checkout button on the Shopping Cart page is all it takes to get started. The security features are automatic; you don't need to do anything special to invoke them.
2. Making a Positive ID
Once you've clicked the Checkout button, your browser looks for a digital certificate to confirm that it is communicating with us. Once a positive ID is made, your order continues.
3. Entering Secure Mode
Next, your computer and our server begin communicating in secure mode, sending data back and forth in an encrypted format.
After your browser has entered secure mode, we'll ask you for your credit card information. The encryption features of browser software are exceptionally powerful and ensure the security of data as it is transmitted to our server. Our site makes use of the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol and 128-bit strong encryption to provide the highest level of security available.
4. My Order Is Complete. What Happens Next?
Security measures continue even after you've placed your order, as we process your order in a highly secure computing environment.
You will receive an email confirmation of your purchase, and you will be directed from Secure Mode back to the website.
Making a Purchase with a Browser That Doesn't Support Security?
You can't. Because we don't want you ever to have to worry about ordering from our site without a secure connection, we've designed our system so that it will process orders only with browsers that support secure mode.
Please note that the latest versions of Netscape's and Microsoft's browsers have security features, and both are free for downloading. Visit either company's Web site for details.
We've worked hard to bring you a secure online ordering environment. We hope you'll contact us with your questions, comments or concerns
