Today the Supreme Court struck down state prohibitions on interstate wine sales. The 5-4 decision cuts across traditional ideological and doctrinal lines. Justice Kennedy wrote the majority opinion, joined by Scalia, Souter, Ginsburg and Breyer. Justices Thomas, O’Connor, Rehnquist and Stevens were in dissent. I’m not sure what I think of this decision as a doctrinal matter, but I’m thrilled I’ll now be able to order wine direct from out-of-state!
