Shipping Notes
An adult signature (over the age of 21) with proof of age verification is required for delivery. Any request made to leave a package without the signature will be ignored, and no exceptions will be made. If you are unable to sign for your wine at the time of delivery you can arrange to pick up your package at your local UPS facility. UPS will generally hold a package for 5 business days for will-call pickup. All shipping charges are nonrefundable if packages are returned due to incorrect addresses or unavailable receivers (in both cases UPS will contact the receiver/sender to remedy the situation, it is the responsibility of the receiver to provide the correct shipping address and sign for the package). There will also be a reshipping fee if the package needs to be reshipped or a change of address must be made.
Delivery within VA
We try to deliver the product the same day as long as it is ordered by 2 PM. We charge $ 15 to $60 for delivery. An adult (over the age of 21) signature is required for delivery.
