Why are my cases sometimes despatched separately?

In order to ensure that you receive the wine on your order as quickly as possible we despatch each case as and when it is ready. This means that orders for more than one case may be delivered separately. Please do not be alarmed if this happens, it should mean that the rest of the order is not far behind. You can check the progress of each case in the Order History area of Your Account when signed in to the site.

Where will you leave my order?

When you choose your delivery address, we ask you to specify a safe place that the wines can be left, even if no-one is at home.

You can select one of the options from the drop down box or specify your own; places like garden sheds, unlocked garages, greenhouses and lean-tos for example. Alternatively you could request that your wines are left with a neighbour.

Your safe place should be easily accessible, sheltered from the elements and concealed from public view. Our carriers will leave a card to let you know where they have left your wine.

^ Back to top

What if I don't have a safe place for delivery?

If you have no safe place for the wine to be left you can select the option 'No Safe Place - Signature Required'. Selecting this option can mean that the delivery will take longer - especially if there is a good chance that no-one will be at home when our carrier tries to deliver (our standard delivery is Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm, with Saturday delivery available if you choose a delivery date). Our carriers will leave a card if they do not find anyone at home. You will be able to call the number on the card and our carriers will tell you when they will try again. Unfortunately, you will not be able to collect the case from the carrier's depot.

^ Back to top

What if my wine still hasn't been delivered?

If you have placed an order and you have not received it within three working days please consult order queries section or alternatively contact us and we will seek to rectify the situation as soon as possible.
