Customers from New York, Michigan, Arizona and Louisiana can now order wine from Amazon.com wine store.
With the holiday season ahead, wine is the most popular drink this time of the year. Just in time for festive shopping, Amazon announced customers from New York, Michigan, Arizona and Louisiana can now place orders and get their favorite wines shipped from the online wine store.
Amazon Wine offers a vast collection of wines with delivery available to 20 states and the District of Columbia, adding eight states since last year. With the addition of the four new states, customers can purchase directly from more than 700 wine sellers and over 5,000 available labels on Amazon Wine store.
"The holiday season is a busy time, and it's a huge time saver for millions of customers to have access to thousands of high-quality wines while they're shopping for that special gift on Amazon. We're excited for our customers to be able to browse our vast selection of boutique and prestigious labels through the Amazon Wine store," Peter Faricy, vice president for Amazon Marketplace, said in a press release. "Our customers tell us they enjoy our wine-country selection and the convenience of finding detailed information in one place. We want to connect customers with wine sellers around the country and provide a destination where they can learn about and purchase wines directly from great wineries on Amazon."
In addition, Amazon Wine is also offering limited production wines, special deals on mixed packs and a chance to interact directly with the wine makers on Amazon. The online wine store has added over a thousand international wines including the exquisite ones from Italy, France and Australia. Customers can also avail limited period discount of 20 percent on a wide range of mixed wine packs and 10 percent off on Halloween Wines.
Customers can also choose to see the range of red wine, white wine, rosè wine, sparkling wine and dessert wine by choosing the option from the left hand side panel on the website. Also, customers can select wines based on vintage, brands, country and origin, professional rating, price, bottle volume, seller and average customer rating from the left panel.
While Amazon Prime members enjoy wide range of shipping benefits, the Amazon Wine is not a part of these benefits. Customers can ship up to six bottles of wine at once for a fee of $9.99.
