Alcohol beverages are sold in California and title passes to the buyer in California. By placing an order with Vintage Wines Ltd., you authorize us to act on your behalf to work with a carrier to deliver your order to a valid address within the United States.
Shipments are restricted to California, states reciprocal with California, and non-P.O. BOX addresses. Non California buyers are responsible for knowing whether they may lawfully import wine and/or spirits into their state.
We cannot ship to the following states: Alabama, Arkansas, Michigan, Mississippi, New Hampshire, South Dakota and Utah.
We cannot guarantee delivery on a specific day. Once an order has left our store, we no longer have control of the package. FedEx/GLS/We Ship Express do not guarantee delivery times or dates. Should you need faster delivery, we recommend that you upgrade your shipping method, as applicable.
Carriers do not insure against heat or cold damage, and we are unable to take responsibility for such damages after your wine has safely left our store. You are solely responsible for determining when and by what method you wish us to deliver your order—so be aware of weather conditions before shipping an order. In winter and summer we generally do not ship on Fridays, since carriers hold shipments over the weekends in their warehouses, where storage conditions may be far from ideal for temperature-sensitive products such as wine.
We use a carrier with temperature-controlled vehicles as required by the the states of Illinois and Oklahoma. We offer and encourage all customers to use this premium temperature-controlled shipping service especially from mid-April to mid-October. When using this service, delivery times will generally by delayed (commonly deliveries to Midwest and East Coast will take 10 to 14 days).
If pre-arranged, we also offer a concierge storage service in our shop.
In states requiring an adult signature for alcohol shipments, an additional charge, up to $9, is charged by the carrier. Our shipping prices include packing materials.
San Diego County sales tax is 7.75%. All orders picked up at our store are subject to California sales tax, even if not charged when ordered. Any new taxes that come into effect after the order is placed will be adjusted to reflect applicable taxes at the date of shipment or pickup.
If you desire shipment of original wood cases, gift boxes or whiskey tubes, then an additional charge for this service can be made by phone (preferred), email at orders@vintagewinessd.com, or through the "Order Notes/Special Instructions" field in the Shipping Details page of the online checkout process.
We are unable to offer international shipping.
