Included in the total cost are packaging materials, labor costs of preparing the item(s) for shipping, carrier fees and fuel surcharges, plus the carrier’s additional, mandatory “signature fee.” By law, delivery of alcohol requires an adult signature upon receipt. Finally, insurance fees are added for your security.

    Disclaimer for Shipping:
    All purchases are packed and shipped in carrier approved containers made for shipping wine. They are a strong and safe way to ship bottles of wine.

    Wines that come in OWC (original wooden cases) will not be shipped in wood. Consumers may request the wooden case to be shipped separately with their order at an extra nominal expense (i.e.: to CA from CT- $9).

    Wines that come in OCC (original cardboard cases) will not be shipped with the original case. However in some instances whne the case is sealed and secure we will ship the case. Those can also be requested to be shipped separately, also for a nominal expense (i.e.: to CA from CT- $5).

    Federal Express (FedEx) and UPS are our carriers of choice for their value, expediency, and efficiency.  We do however, for safety's sake, apply insurance to every package that leaves our store. This insurance fee is calculated into the shipping prices we charge.

    In the event of breakage or loss of parcel, a complete refund will be made to the purchaser, which will include the price paid for the wine, as well as the complete shipping cost and any applicable taxes.

    Many states restrict the shipment of wine. Please accept our apologies if we are unable to ship to your area. Deliveries to the following states are limited to wine accessories only: Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maryland, Maine, Mississippi, Montana, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, West Virginia.

    Please note that if we have shipped you the wrong vintage in a case that states a different vintage (i.e. that you ordered) - it is most likely that our distributor has shipped us a bad case.
