Ordering your Wine direct from the Boutique Winery

• For any wine ordered through boutiquewineries.com.au, the sale is made direct between the winery and the customer, via the internet, in much the same way as any other mail order sale.
• Wineries are not allowed to sell wine to anyone who isn't 18 years old or over. By placing an order you confirm that you are at least 18 years old. It is an offence to sell or supply to or to obtain liquor on behalf of a person under the age of 18 years.
• If you are buying a case of wine as a gift - the recipient must also be over 18 years old.
• If the wine couriers are in any doubt about the age of the recipient on delivery, they will request some form of ID. If the person receiving the wine is unable to produce appropriate ID, unfortunately the couriers will be unable to leave the wine.
• Our terms and conditions may change from time to time.
• For credit card payments a credit card surcharge will be charged for each order. The actual amount of this surcharge will be made clear before you confirm your order.

• If for whatever reason the Winery is unable to supply the wine, Boutique Wineries will issue a gift voucher (no refunds) to the value of the original order. This gift voucher can be then be redeemed for wine by placing an order with another Winery.
