Sometimes winemakers ask us about the rules around sending wines to Sweden. Most know that there is a monopoly in Sweden but they also have customers from Sweden asking for shipments. In fact, although there is a retail monopoly for alcohol in Sweden it is perfectly legal for Swedes to buy from abroad. Or to put it another way: wineries can sell directly to customers in Sweden.
To explain the situation we have written an article that explains what the buyer needs to do and what the wine producer needs to do, if they want to follow the rules.

Can I buy and have you deliver wines to a suburb of Stockholm?
You can buy and have wine delivered to Stockholm, but not from us. We are writers, not a delivery company.
Hello I’m the manager of one small company of wine from San juan- Argentina ” Bodega Villa Borja” . I want to know how is possibly to bring the to Sweden and offer. I’m in Stockholm and interesting in the market.
A difficult question. I guess if you are in Stockholm you should try and get meetings with as many importers that you can. Here’s a list of some of them. It is far from complete.
