I very much appreciate the offer but I'm afraid there is too much of a
chance that someone would get into trouble. We have some strange laws
in the USA regarding shipment of alcoholic beverages *to individuals*,
both into the country and into certain states. I don't pretend to
understand them all but I prefer to err on the side of caution. I wish
you every success in finding someone who can import your wines into
the USA legally. As I've said before, I'll remember the name Ipavec
and if I ever see one of your wines on a shelf, I'll buy it.
