You can, but remember that you have to pack it in your checked luggage. There are some styrofoam inserts just for this purpose if you can find them. Or put it in a large ziplock and wrap in bubble wrap. A lot of trouble, frankly- and wine is so much cheaper in Europe. Don't you have some other local products you could take?

I'm not quite sure if the amount of wine you may bring into Germany without paying duties has been of any concern for you, but I guess it can't hurt to know the limits:
2 liters of wine per person (17 or older) entering the country.

We have friends in Germany and I checked a styrofoam shipper containing 6 bottles on an AA flight from DFW-FRA in April. No problems departing or arriving. Since CA wine is very expensive in Europe, our friends were thrilled with the gesture. And, we filled the shipper with German wine and checked it on the return.
Shouldn't be a problem.

I donīt know where you have looked, but you get Californian wine at any Aldi store for 3-4 Euro. OK, the quality of these particular wines can be disputed.
