Shipping in Summer

[Thomas]

I think the solution exists: temperature controlled storage and refrigerated trucks. That's the way the industry handles wine movement.

The problem is, of course, in order for the solution to work for the consumer, consumer shipping companies have to invest in the warehousing and the trucking.

I'll ask you a question: how do you think it affects the imported wines that are pulled out by customs and allowed to sit at the docks for days without temperature control? Happens all the time.
