Florida is one of the more permissive states for wine shipping – direct-to-consumer delivery is allowed and the rules are straightforward. The main practical challenge is the Florida heat. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 90 degrees F, and wine shipped without temperature protection risks heat damage.
Clubs That Ship to Florida
The major clubs all ship to Florida: Nakedwines, Firstleaf, California Wine Club, Gold Medal Wine Club, Bright Cellars, and Wired For Wine 90+ all deliver to Florida. Most use FedEx or UPS wine-certified delivery.
The Heat Question
If you are in South Florida from May through September, ask your club explicitly about their summer shipping policy. California Wine Club uses insulated packaging and ice packs for summer shipments to hot climates. The safest approach for Florida residents: ship to your office or a location where someone can bring the package inside immediately after delivery.
Top Recommendation for Florida
The California Wine Club handles Florida delivery well – their packaging is robust and they have been shipping to hot climates for over thirty years. Nakedwines is ideal for Florida residents who want to time orders for cooler months when heat damage is not a factor. Use our recommendation quiz for a full personalised match.
