Where can I Purchase Reliance Wine & Vines?	Reliance wine is not sold in stores. You will have to make it yourselves. I have used it in some fruity white wine blends. It may be included (but not on the label) of many wines that have a fruity, sweeter finish. These style of wines may be purchased on line from: St. Julien Winery Peterson & Sons - Natural Wines Due to regulations wine cannot be shipped into Michigan from other states. Stop by these wineries to purchase this style of wine. NY - Bully Hill Vineyard NY - Swedish Hill NY - Hunt Country (Note - If any other winery carries this style of wine and wants to be included here, please let us know) We do not sell wine or vines.
