Wine Shipping & Delivery Policy

Ojai Mountain ships small-lot, high-elevation wines directly to customers across eligible U.S. states. Whether you order from our online shop or receive a wine club shipment, this page explains carrier options, volume-based rates, delivery requirements, and how we pack and release orders from our fulfillment center.

Shipping rates for retail orders are calculated at checkout based on your delivery address, bottle count, and selected service level. Wine club members may receive flat rate or complimentary shipping depending on membership tier.

Carrier Service Options

Ground: Our most affordable option. Ground service typically arrives in 3–7 business days depending on distance from Napa, CA.

Second Day: Expedited delivery that arrives within two business days after the carrier accepts the package.

Next Day: Fastest option for time-sensitive deliveries. Arrives the following business day where available.

Volume Shipping Discounts

Stocking up saves on shipping. Retail orders qualify for the following ground-shipping rates:

  • 1–5 bottles — standard carrier rates calculated at checkout
  • 6–11 bottles — $20 flat rate for ground shipping
  • 12+ bottles — complimentary ground shipping

Delivery Requirements

  • An adult signature is required upon delivery. The recipient must be 21 or older.
  • We ship to select states only due to direct-to-consumer wine regulations, with the exception of Utah, Delaware and Rhode Island. Eligible destinations are confirmed at checkout before you complete your purchase.
  • Ground shipping is recommended for winter orders. For summer deliveries to hot climates, we advise expedited shipping to minimize heat exposure during transit.

Order Fulfillment & Notifications

Retail orders are typically fulfilled within 2–3 business days. Wine club shipments ship within 14 days of each release notification. That window gives members time to customize their shipment before it leaves our facility.

Weather holds may apply during summer months to protect wine in transit. If your order is held, you will be notified by email and text. To receive your wine sooner, expedited shipping through UPS or FedEx Second Day or Next Day is available at checkout.

Shipment notifications are sent by email. Text updates are also available — enroll at checkout or in your account settings.
