This may or may not be good news, depending on future actions by your
local state legislature. The way I read this, what this ruling says is
that a state may not discriminate by allowing intrastate shipments
while barring interstate ones. There would be two ways of complying:
by allowing shipments from out-of-state (the good news everybody seems
to be assuming) or by banning all wine shipments including from within
the state (not-so-good news).
