Q. I just placed an order and don't see my discount?

Q. What if I only want the vintage listed and not any other vintage of the wine I want to order?

  • For  wines $50+, we will provide the listed vintage or contact you if we have a different vintage. 
  • Commodity and value-type wines, e.g. those selling for $20 and less, are not subject to any specific vintage and you will be provided the in-stock vintage.
  • If you only want a specific vintage of a wine, please indicate it in the 'Special Shipping Instructions' box in the order.
 
Q. What is your return policy?
A.
  • If you purchased it less than 14 days ago and the wine is bad, we need the item returned with the wine in the bottle and the cork in tact. We will then issue a refund upon return of the item.
  • If there is nothing wrong with the wine and it is unopened and in sellable condition, but you overbought or simply don't like it, we will take it back and refund your money less a 20% restocking charge. Alternatively, if you choose a store gift card or an exchange for other products, there will not be a restocking charge. Items that were kept outdoors in hot or cold weather or kept on ice are not considered in sellable conditon and not eligble for return.
  • Older vintages are sold as is and are not returnable, that is why it is absolutely vital to inspect old bottles and never buy it over the phone.
  • Shipping charges back and forth are not refundable.
 
Q. Why didn't I get my discount(coupon, sale price, etc.)?
A. Only one type of any kind of promotion can be applied to an item. If it's the price is in red, that's it, no further discounts. Or you can apply your coupon, but we will have to use black prices. In other words, you can chose promotions, but you can't combine them.

Q. What is the case discount?
A. The case discount saves you 15% ON NON-SALE WINES in the purchase of a case or mixed case.
 
Q. How many bottles makes up a "case" or "mixed case"?

A. Yes, you can build a mixed case with any 12 wines you choose. Items on sale will not discount any further.

 

 
Q. Some of the wines in my case are already ON SALE, do I still get the 15% discount?
A. No. The case discount only applies to items which are not on sale.
(Example: if you buy 6 bottles of Columbia Crest Cabernet at $11.99 regular price, and 6 of Sharecropper Pinot Noir at $22.99 on sale, the Columbia Crest will be 15% off the $11.99 regular price, but not the Sharecropper, since it is already on sale for $22.99.
