More about buying wine online around the Web:

The Wine Institute - A public policy advocacy group representing 645 California wineries and affiliated businesses. Check out legal issues involved with ordering wine online, and to see which states restrict direct purchasing by consumers. If this bothers you - a letter to your state politicians may be a good idea!

Wine-Searcher - Searchable by keyword or by category with links to the top 50 wine sites online. Excellent resource for wines from all over the world.

IntoWine - This site is a treasure of wine information. Like wandering through Paris, where every turn brings a new delight. Lists of links bring you to territory that they don't cover themselves.

The WineEnthusiast - No wines for sale here, but if you're looking for stemware, cellars, corkscrews, bars... or even a trip to visit your favorite wine region, you'll have a good reason to visit.

Tom Cannavan Wine Pages Online Magazine - Tom hails from Scotland so prices and shops may not be relevant to those outside the UK, but the site is chock full of bits of interest to wine lovers no matter where they live. Be sure to check the section on matching wines with foods.

Wines.com - Not to be confused with wine.com, this more sedate site focuses on information rather than wine selling, although it does have links to buy wine. If it's just shopping you want - drop the 's'. Wine.com is information poor but has a good wine selection for online shopping if you already know what you want.
