GENERAL GUIDELINES
State law requires an adult signature for delivery.
All wine orders will be shipped at the beginning of each week to minimize weekend carrier hold times.
During extreme weather, we may delay shipments to ensure wine quality.
To preserve the integrity of your wine, we recommend delivery of wine shipments to a business address, rather than a residential address. Delivery to a residence may cause a delay and / or heat exposure to your wine.

You must be 21 years old or older to buy wine. By placing this order with Miner Family 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. The willful misrepresentation of your age or the age of the recipient is a crime in most states, and if you willfully misrepresent your age or the age of the recipient, we will cooperate with authorities to prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law.
