Connecticut

Over the past year, the state of Connecticut along with 36 others, saw the possibility of ordering out-of-state wines disappear. That includes any and all internet purchases, catalog orders, and direct shipments from retailers. Interstate wine shipment had been loosely regulated since a 2005 Supreme Court ruling that lifted numerous state restrictions on purchases from out-of-state wineries. Unfortunately, wine and spirits wholesalers were able to sway politicians, leading carriers such as FedEx and United Parcel Service to stop accepting shipments for out-of-state alcoholic beverages (except for the 14 states that still allow it).
