I was surprised to see my shipment originating from Earth City, MO from ‘Wineshipping’ for my Dusi Pinot Grigio (which still shows as ‘Processing’ on CM). Appears to be working, as bottles were no more than room temp. Nice!
I was notified yesterday by UPS of an arrival today of the Mixed Vintage Mystery Mission from Found Wine, also coming via Mound City (I live in Morgan County). I’m late on the UPS route, so it will have been in the truck all day (about 86 outside), so I’ll have a thermometer ready to check the bottle temps when it arrives. Casemates order status still shows “Processing” (I wonder what would happen if I click “Cancel this”?).

hello. refrigerated trucks will be used to get to hubs across the country. once handed off, it will be 1 and sometimes 2 day transit. packages are consolidated weekly.
for northwest and a few other states, it will be styro and an ice pack (when necessary) to be included.
i’m happy to answer any more questions about this.

@Mark_L My shipment arrived about 15 minutes ago. Bottle temps about 85F (standard cardboard). Probably OK.
