Wine is sensitive to excessive heat, freezing temperatures, and temperature fluctuations during transportation. Angry Wine Merchant recommends expedited shipping or holding orders until conditions improve. All shipments originate in Los Angeles, California. Please review our Shipping Information for fulfillment schedules, packaging, and delivery requirements.

Shipping Recommendations

We recommend UPS Next Day Air whenever possible and scheduling deliveries to avoid weekends, holidays, and extreme temperatures. Weather holds are available upon request. Although expedited shipping reduces transit time, no shipping method guarantees protection against temperature exposure.

Customer Acknowledgment & Responsibility

By requesting shipment, you acknowledge the risks of transporting temperature-sensitive wine, including heat, freezing temperatures, carrier delays, and temperature-related deterioration such as seepage, oxidation, premature aging, or damage that may not be immediately visible.

Customers who authorize shipment during unfavorable conditions knowingly assume the associated temperature-related risks. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Angry Wine Merchant is not responsible for temperature-related damage or deterioration during transportation, including that resulting from weather conditions, carrier delays, missed deliveries, extended carrier holds, or other circumstances beyond our control after shipment has been tendered to the carrier. Temperature-related deterioration resulting from shipment authorized under unfavorable conditions is not eligible for refund, return, or replacement, to the extent permitted by law.
