Newport News Wine Gift Delivery Tips
Joint Base Langley–Eustis
Deliveries onto Joint Base Langley–Eustis can be harder. Off-base homes are usually easier, so check with the recipient first.
PCS moves and deployments
Military families move often, and ships deploy for months. Confirm the recipient's current address, or send to a family member at home who is 21 or older.
Shipyard schedules
Many people work shifts at the shipyard. Ask when they'll be home, since someone 21 or older has to sign.
Hurricane season
From August through October, coastal storms and nor'easters can flood streets and delay deliveries. Watch the forecast and order early.
College students
Most CNU students are under 21, and wine can only be delivered to someone 21 or older with ID. Wine gifts are better for faculty, staff, parents and graduates.
Hospitals
Riverside Regional Medical Center may not accept alcohol for patients. Send to the recipient's home instead.
