    • You may call as at 510.527.3675 to pay by phone.

Scheduling

Please contact us at least two business days in advance to schedule your FedEx Shipment or pick-up an order at the freezer. The Chicago location sometimes requires additional time.

  • California and Oregon – We ship on Mondays and Wednesdays. You may pick-up Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. – 4 p.m.
  • Illinois – Ship on Wednesdays only. You may pick-up Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. – 2 p.m.

Shipping Grapes in the U.S.

  • FedEx – Pails of frozen grapes or juice can be shipped to your door anywhere in the U.S. This is typically the most cost effective shipping option for up to 8 pails. We cannot FedEx drums due to their weight.
  • LTL Truck Shipments – For large pail orders or any quantity of totes and drums, we can arrange LTL freight shipments. You are also welcome to arrange shipments with your preferred LTL carrier.
    More info on LTL Shipping
    Shipping costs change frequently in response to weather, fuel costs and availability so we do not provide flat rates. We happy to provide a quote for an order. You will get the best rate the closer you are to filling up a pallet. For example, there is typically a small price difference in the cost of shipping 1 drum or when filling the pallet with 4 drums. Getting together with friends and sharing shipping is a great way to save! We have accounts with multiple shipping companies that provide us with substantially lower rates than our customers typically receive for single orders. Brehm Vineyard’s charges a $50 coordination fee when we make shipping arrangements. You are welcome to arrange for your own shipping without the fee.

Shipping Grapes to Canada

We send shipments to British Columbia and Ontario Canada following harvest (pre-order is required). We can also ship orders to Canada using LTL trucks year-round. We cannot FedEx orders to Canada.

For winemakers in Eastern Canada 

Each fall Brehm Vineyards will ship frozen pails and drums that have been pre-ordered to Ontario. We are working with a new freezer in Ontario this year, as Apollo Cold Storage closed it’s doors this fall. We will transfer pre-ordered pails and drums from the Chicago freezer to Igloo Cold Storage in Ontario this November.

    • Shipping cost – $18 per pail transferred from the Chicago freezer. Inquire for drum pricing.
      • For example, if you want a pail currently in Chicago it’s only $18. If you want a pail that was harvested this year or a past vintage pail  currently in storage in Oregon or California,  $15 per pail to move it to Chicago for a total of $33.
  • Picking up your order at Igloo Cold Storage: 7420 Bren Rd, Mississauga, ON L4T 1H4, Canada
      • Once the shipment arrives in Ontario, you’ll have 3 weeks to pick up your order.
    • Contact us to schedule your appointment two business days in advance. Their will-call hours are:
      • 7 a.m. – 4 p.m.  Monday – Friday
      • 7 – 10 a.m. on Sundays

Fresh Grapes Available at Harvest

Pre-Order for the upcoming harvest year launches in May! Fresh grapes grown in California are available at our processing site in Petaluma, CA at Stage Gulch Vineyards. Oregon and Washington grapes are processed in Underwood, WA at White Salmon Vineyards. Please note, we do not ship fresh grapes as we cannot guarantee quality.

When it’s time to pick . . . we pick!

Brehm Vineyards monitors each varietal throughout the growing season in order to harvest grapes at their peak potential. Please be patient with us as mother nature sometimes has a mind of her own. We will work with you on scheduling your pick up and give you as much notice as possible at the time of harvest. This may be up to week of advance notice, or in rare cases, we will give you a call the day before.

Please Remember: You are responsible for bringing your own bins/containers to receive your grapes/juice and provide your own transportation.  If you’re picking up a half-ton of fruit or more, please deliver your bins in advance.
