Jonas Wines is owned by Albert and Malin Jonas, who purchased two containers of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from a new winery in Washington State. They pay for the wines and are excited when they finally arrive at their stores in Louisville, Kentucky. The shipment arrives on September 21, and since they are about to leave on a much needed holiday, they do not open the containers until they get back from their European holiday on October 10. When they open one of the bottles of Chardonnay, it tastes sour. They try 10 other bottles, which have the same problem. They call the winery and tell them they are shipping back the wine and want their money returned. The winery refuses saying that they did not promptly notify them of the problem. Does Jonas Wines have a case against the winery? Explain your answer.

Using the same facts as stated in 2 (a) above, the winery offers to replace the wine. Does Jonas Wines have to accept the winery's offer? Why or why not?
