Winetex's post in the Sine Qua Non thread about it being too hot to ship wine reminded me to post this. Anyone else hear about FedEx's newTEMP-ASSURE® service?

Sounds pretty interesting...

Begs to ask the question...will they ship wine where they shouldn't?

Hmmm....All Ways Cool can ship FedEx.

It should be notes that FedEx will not knowingly ship wine from individuals, the sender must be a licensed retailer.

just looked up the rates for St Helena to Atlanta - $4K!

i'll make the delivery for that price.

Wow!!

There is a wino couple here that stores all of their CA allocations in CA. Then they rent a van and go out and pick it all up. Their reasoning is that they have a nice drive, get to go to Napa and actually save some money. I'm angling for some space in their van for a couple of cases.

From looking at the link it looks like this is for large shipments of drugs and such which need to be cooled. I don't think they are interested in doing this on a case of wine.
