Export Deliveries

Due to import restrictions we are regrettably unable to ship goods for delivery to Canada.

We are pleased to organise the delivery of fine wines & Spirits to our export clients. We use a variety of specialist shipping companies who operate successfully in the individual continents of the world. Due to the costs involved economies of scale are prevalent. Wines of high value, and, or reasonably large consignments of perhaps 60 bottles are relatively economical to distribute on a global basis. Following considerable research we are pleased to offer details of expected shipping costs to a number of prominent destinations. We will be pleased to make more definitive quotations on request.

Please note: There may be excise and or customs duties levied in the country of destination, we have no control of and transfer the responsibility of handling and payment of these taxes to the buyer. Please make sure you fully understand your responsibilities as an occasional importer before you order, as we will not be able to refund or replace goods which have been seized or lost as a result of customs or excise inspection processes.
