    For aviation lovers and oenophiles alike.

    http://www.chandellewinery.com/aviation_wine_labels.htm

    I love the airbus rendezvous label. Wonder how the wine really is.
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Rafal,
    The various states have a complete hodgepodge of laws concerning shipping wine (since it shifts the burden of checking ID from the seller to the shipper). Maryland says no, but it's completely fine in DC and Virginia (send me an e-mail if you want to use my address). And, to keep it on topic with this board, you can ship wine to New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. There was a Supreme Court case about this a few years ago.

    Thanks Matt,

    I've already ordered two bottles with United 727 and TWA Connie :)
    Wine will be shipped to my office in VA :)
    And here is email that I've got from them:

    "Hi, MD is a felony state. Has been for many years. This means that if
    we
    ship you wine and they find out (yes, they do raid UPS shipment centers
    from time to time and forget FEDEX, they won't even take a MD bound box
    from us...) they can extradite and put us in jail for 5 years. All for
    a
    bottle of wine. That's how your state legislature wants it. Again last
    year it was overwhelmingly supported yet again.

    However, we can ship to VA with no problem. We are a licensed VA
    shipper.
    We ship there and to the District for our MD customers.

    Thanks for the interest."


    :)

    It's a good thing they don't have a Concorde label, otherwise Mario would have to join AA--and not the airline. :lol:
