The Supreme Court ruling last year helped a lot with shipping wine. Of course, MD is still in the dark ages.

In one of those curious things, the northeast appears to be the last bastion of non-freedom of commerce, i.e. the wine and liquor distributors have bought and paid for their "right" to screw the citizens of those states. I should say, the northeast except Vermont and New Hampshire. There are a few in the south, and a few in mid-America as well.
Here's a list of states that do not allow shipping of wine from the winery to the consumer. Not very many, but enough to be a pain in the arse.
Alabama
Arkansas
Delaware
Kansas
Kentucky
Maine
Maryland
Massachusetts (Fedex will not ship wine into or out of MA)
Mississippi
Montana
New Jersey
Oklahoma
Pennsylvania
Rhode Island
South Dakota
Tennessee
Utah
