Here's the full opinion. http://scotus.ap.org/scotus/03-1116p.zo.pdf

As others have mentioned, there is going to be a big fall out on this. What this does for the present, however, is invalidate the Michigan and New York laws/regulations as unconstitutional. At best, this may mean that consumers in those states may be able to order directly from wineries, at least until the states enact legislation that makes it illegal for ANYONE to ship to consumers. Even at that, you still have to find a shipper that will handle the goods - UPS probably won't and Fed Ex is a problem, too. Im sure there will be a lot of wrangling and quick work by legislators to enact some sort of laws that will keep the WSWA contributions flowing into their coffers. This fight isn't over yet, folks, but the picture does look a bit brighter, at least for now. Keep your fingers crossed, especially you folks here in MA. Time to start writing your local legislators again. Let them know where their votes come from.
