e-wine

I'm so happy Ken Lay won! yeah, i said it. But, here, Mr. Lay argued the right side of the argument before the Supreme Court: state laws that bar internet ordering and shipments from wineries in other states violates the commerce clause. read here.

The case affects states that allow intra-shipping directly from winery to consumer, but that disallow such direct ordering out of state. Such a scheme unconstitutionally protects in-state commerce.
