SHIPPING & RETURNS
As a small, husband-and-wife run business based in a rural area, we take pride in personally handling every order that comes through our door. While this means your wine may not always ship as rapidly as it would from larger, metro-based operations, it’s also what allows us to keep our prices fair and accessible - without the added costs of a large team and additional warehouses. We truly appreciate your patience as we get your wine on its way as soon as physically possible.
SHIPPING FAQs
How long will it take for my order to arrive?
During regular periods, orders are shipped once weekly from our warehouse and are generally delivered within 3 - 7 working days. As we are located in a rural area, shipping times may vary depending on your location and additional time may be required for the delivery of your order. Please note, during busy periods such as vintage, shipping may be reduced to once weekly and additional time may be required for the despatching of your order if we are processing a high volume of orders.

Will my wine be shipped in hot weather?
During periods of extended high temperatures in local and/or delivery areas, we may delay the shipping of your order until temperatures are acceptable for transit. We will notify you of any shipping delays and will work to ensure your wine reaches you safely. Your patience is greatly appreciated during these times, as we prioritise both the quality of our product and the satisfaction of our customers.

Who will be delivering my order?
Our wines are shipped by Australia Post's specialised wine delivery service. Please note: unless specifically requested (i.e. providing instructions at checkout), a signature will be required to take delivery of your wine, otherwise it will be returned to your local post office for collection.
