Prices & Descriptions

Prices, offers and details are as set out on our website. Prices on our website are retail prices and are inclusive of UK excise duty and VAT. Prices may be subject to change without notice. The product price that is selected on the website (for instance the individual bottle price or the price per case of 6 bottles) is the price we apply when processing your order.

Although we endeavour to ensure that all pricing information on this website is accurate, occasionally an error may occur and goods may be mis-priced. If we discover a pricing error we will, at our discretion, either: contact you and ask you whether you wish to cancel your order or continue with the order at the correct price; or notify you that we have cancelled your order. We will not be obliged to supply goods at the incorrect price.

Although we make every effort to do so, we cannot guarantee vintages. We will contact you if a vintage that you have ordered has become unavailable. Where possible we aim to satisfy orders using more recent vintages and if we need to do this with your order we will do so in consultation with you.

With the exception of specific offers or promotions, our 6-bottle case price only applies to unmixed cases of 6 bottles. Every care has been taken to ensure descriptions, measurements, colours and prices are correct. All items are subject to availability at the time of ordering.
