Shipping & Service Policy


Where Do We Ship?

State laws restrict or prevent shipping wine directly to consumers in these states: Delaware, Kentucky, Mississippi, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Rhode Island, and Utah. We also are unable to ship to U.S. territories or other international locations. Deliveries can only be made to physical addresses. We cannot ship to Post Office boxes or APR/FPO addresses. Some states restrict the amount a consumer can have shipped from a winery. Contact 425-485-1097 to confirm.

Final local and state taxes will be calculated on email order confirmation once the shipping address is reconciled in our system.


What Does Shipping Cost?

Shipping rates are determined by the number of bottles purchased (weight of one bottle is 3.33 lbs.) and also vary by location and service selected.

Weather Restrictions

Lobo Hills Wine Co. typically offers Ground, 2nd Day Air, and Expedited Next Day Delivery services. However, during extreme weather conditions or temperature variances, we want to ensure that the quality of your wine is not impacted. Because of this, we do not offer Ground shipping during such weather conditions. We will either hold your wine, or inquire if you would like to ship via air (at an additional cost).

Fermentation on Rocks?

Most vineyards pull up stones and toss them aside, leaving the soil easier for the vines to burrow into. Left in place however, the roots of the vines (which are incredibly strong) would have broken through the rocks, absorbing their minerality into the fruit. By placing the rocks into the fermentation vessel, you give the wine an opportunity to take into itself what it was deprived of by having it prematurely removed.
