ok so here goes
it legal to send wine to a private person over the age of 21 in the USA if (a) the value of the shipment is less than 2000 USD, (b) a prior notice form is filled and given to US customs, (c) all relevant excise and custom duties are paid (d) the wine is not carried by USPS.
Since here in france wine is considered to be a basic human right (joke.. almost) our postal service has set up a system with a private carrier in the US where they take care of the paperwork and formalities for us.
I'm going to pop into my local post office later on this week and get a proper rundown as to the formalities and what the costs are but it does appear to be possible.
So I'll be putting up some menus and prices and as mentioned before, if you are looking for a particular vintage, just let me know.
this is a link to a pdf set up by the french postal service explaining export rules throughout the world for wine, sorry but it's in french.
