Non-Delivery & Cancellation
If you don't like any wine, for whatever reason ... or if any
bottle is broken or spoilt upon delivery we'll replace it - simple as
that.
You may cancel your order for any reason up to and including 7
working days from the date of delivery of your order, provided all
the bottles are unopened and intact. We will refund the full price of
the order including delivery within 30 days from the date of
cancellation.
Occasionally we do have to substitute wines for a later vintage
or an alternative of equal or greater value. If you are unhappy with
any substitutions you receive we will arrange collection at our cost.
Claims for non-delivery must be made within three months of your
order date.
Any complaint is taken very seriously and we endeavour to
respond to complaints as soon as possible.
"I would just like to express my appreciation of the courteous
way that my 'mini' problem over a wine order was dealt with. In this
day of mediocrity it was a shining beacon of service." Mr R Clee,

Age Restrictions
It is against the law to sell or indeed supply intoxicating

order you confirm that you are at least 18 years old. If our couriers
are in doubt of the age of the recipient of an order they will
request some form of ID. In the event that this is not satisfied they
are not permitted to leave the wine.
