Depending on where you live, your libations should arrive at your door just two to seven days after your order is placed. It’s rare, but, the pandemic or extreme weather events may cause local delays in shipping. Be sure to keep an eye on your tracking to follow your wine’s journey! 

Yes. US laws require an adult aged 21 or older to sign for the delivery, as wine is an alcoholic beverage. Please make sure an adult will be present on the day your order arrives to receive it. We’d hate to see your cracking open a can of Archer Roose be delayed!

If you’re unable to sign for the delivery, UPS My Choice members can redirect the package to a UPS customer center or another location where someone can sign on your behalf. Unfortunately, you cannot sign online for delivery release as an adult signature is needed.

If you’ve already missed the delivery, you can sign the back of the UPS InfoNotice® slip and place it back where the driver left it.

Archer Roose ships to most contiguous states in the US, and we’re working to add more states soon. We currently are not able to ship directly to: Alabama, Delaware, Mississippi, Rhode Island, South Dakota or Utah. However, if you’re in Alabama, Delaware or Rhode Island, you can find Archer Roose at a store, bar or restaurant near you.

We are currently unable to ship internationally, but hope to in the future

Unfortunately, at this time, we are not able to ship to a PO Box.

Whatever the situation calls for — can, glass, or Dixie cup! However, our sense of smell is responsible for about 80% of what we taste, and wine glasses unlock more of a wine’s aromas. Archer Roose wines taste fantastic right out of the can, though sipping from a glass can give you a fuller sensory experience.

No, you cannot taste the aluminum. Each of our cans contains a food-grade liner that separates the metal can from the wine. This is a liner similar to what you see in canned beer. By packaging in this format, we are able to bring fresh, delicious wine to you!

Yes — our cans are highly recyclable! At Archer Roose we know that you want to feel good about the wine you drink. The global recycling rate for traditional glass bottles is only around 26.5%, while the global recycling rate for aluminum cans is 69%. Aluminum can be recycled and reused infinitely.

Refrigerate as you would bottled wine. For ideal taste, unopened wine should not be refrigerated until 1-2 days before drinking (though it’s perfectly fine to leave in the fridge until you drink it!). For outside of the fridge or longer-term storage, store as you would any wine: in a cool, dry spot (not on top of the fridge or anywhere near a heat source).

Great question! Printing vintage dates on the label is part of a tradition of bottle-aging wine. Since our wines are meant to be drunk fresh and right away, we don’t include the vintage. Also, by removing the vintage, we can avoid using additional shrink wrap or stickers needed to include the date information with our cans, which uses less packaging and makes our cans more easily recyclable.

Core to our brand is bringing you a global portfolio. Because we make wine in different countries, they have different classifications of what it means to be organic. Our winemakers practice limited intervention to bring you high quality, sustainably sourced wines.

Nope! But our wine does contain sulfites, which are naturally occurring in wine and are in everything around us. Sulfites are generally blamed for causing reactions or headaches. In reality, these reactions are often caused by other chemical additives employed during the winemaking process. We are consciously craft all our wines by using as little additives as possible (#madewithout). That being said, if lots of wine is drunk, that headache may be unavoidable :).

Our wines are meant to be drunk fresh and right away, but our Bubbly wines have a shelf life of one year and our still wines have a shelf life of 18 months. You can find the “born on date” or the date of fill at the bottom of each can.

Each of our varietals are unique!  Please check out each product page for specific nutritional information: archerroose.com/products. 

Yes! We use no animal products in the fining process or at any point throughout our wine’s production.

Yes, our wines are gluten-free. We’d like to think we’re keto-friendly, but we invite you to make your personal decision! You can see each of our wine’s nutritional information on their product page: archerroose.com/products.

A good wine is one that you enjoy drinking! High-quality wines are also always made from the highest quality grapes grown in wine regions that lend favorable terroir to the winemaking process (like Archer Roose’s wines, if we do say so ourselves).

A sommelier (pronounced suh-mel-YAY) is a wine steward, a certified and knowledgeable wine professional who usually works in fine dining and is responsible for every aspect of a bar or restaurant’s wine program.

They are an expert who can help you navigate through a wine list (which they curate) to find the best wine to pair with your desired dish. In fact, perfect pairings are one of the most important things a sommelier develops.

It’s easy to confuse these two terms, but their difference is pretty straightforward: varieties are types of grapes (e.g. sauvignon blanc grapes, Malbec grapes, etc.), while varietals are wines that are named after the principal grape from which it is produced.

This is an easy one! A wine’s nose is a term to describe the smell, or “bouquet” of a wine. Simply swirl your can or wine glass a bit to release more aroma (this actually works — it’s not just something snobs do). What scents can you identify?

Palate refers to the ability to identify and taste different characteristics of a wine, and also to your actual palate: the roof of your mouth. You can develop your palate by using your senses to discover and recognize with your eyes, nose, and taste buds. A “discerning palate” is something anyone can develop, perhaps with a little practice. And, for extra accuracy (or a little treat), don’t forget a palate cleanser, like lemon sorbet or french bread, between wine tastings.

Tannins are phenolic compounds that affect wine texture and mouthfeel by creating the drying sensation or bitter taste in your mouth when you drink a red wine. Tannins naturally leach into wine from the grape skins, seeds and stems pressed during the winemaking process and from the barrels the wine is stored in,

When a wine has a pleasant amount of tannins, it’s often described as “grippy.” “Green” tannins will taste bitter, with unpleasant astringency. “Resolved” tannins in mature wines are described as “smooth” or “soft,” and are no longer astringent.

Just like using wine glasses, you don’t have to decant wine unless you want to! However, letting wine breathe (or “aerate”) allows them to open up and taste even better. Generally, red wines are decanted, but white wines are not.

People decant wine for two reasons: to help filter sediments that may have formed during aging, and to add oxygen to the wine — both of which affect the wine’s flavor, mouthfeel, and aroma. Typically, red wines are decanted for ~30 minutes minimum, or even up to a day for older, higher-alcohol wines.

No, wine doesn’t suddenly sprout appendages. Also called “wine tears,” wine legs are the trail on the inside of a wine glass from droplets that form after you’ve sipped or swirled and the liquid resettles to the bottom. When the alcohol on the sides of your glass starts to evaporate, water, tannins, and sugar form drops that then fall back into the glass, forming little trails. Despite the popular belief, legs are in no way a sign of the quality of a wine.
