We now have two shipping locations which means members in most cities receive their wines in 2-3 days via ground shipping. In states where it’s too hot to ship ground, we will ship via FedEx cold chain which takes longer but ensures your wine travels to the hub in temperature control at which point it gets upgraded to priority to be delivered by 12pm.

Unless you have already specified FedEx for your shipment, we ship our wines via UPS ground. If you’d like to request FedEx, please contact us at 707-302-3635 or wineclub@farniente.com.
