Let me muddy the waters a bit more.

*Direct Shipment of Alcoholic Beverages to Consumers State Statutes

The majority of states have statutory provisions that allow for out-of-state manufacturers to ship alcoholic beverages directly to consumers. The majority of states restrict the direct shipments to wine.

Out of the 54 states, territories and commonwealths, four states—Alabama, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Utah—specifically prohibit the direct shipment of alcoholic beverages to consumers. Mississippi, Guam, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands do not have statutes that specify that direct shipments are allowed. Massachusetts and Pennsylvania have had statutes ruled unconstitutional by state courts in those states.

Delaware and South Dakota have statutory provisions that require orders to be processed and shipped through licensed wholesalers. Arizona, Georgia, Kentucky and South Carolina have statutory provisions that allow wine to be shipped into the state when purchased by the customer on-site at the winery. Rhode Island allows intoxicating beverages to be shipped when purchased on-site.*

Then further down it shows the text of the laws from the states. However, in the text for Louisiana, it refers only to "wine" and not "spirits." So it's kinda strange.

There, I'm sure that fixes everything. :)
