Ownership
All goods remain the property of Wiston Estate Partnership until payment in full has been received for the wine and any other sums owed to Wiston Estate Partnership. Until title passes, the customer will hold the wine as trustees for Wiston Estate Partnership. The wine is to be stored securely and is to be easily identifiable as wine supplied by Wiston Estate Partnership.
Lien
In circumstances where Wiston Estate Partnership holds wine on behalf of the customer, the company shall have a right of lien on such wine for any debts, claims and liabilities whatsoever for which you may from time to time be liable to the company whether or not the same is due. Wiston Estate Partnership shall exercise the right of lien at its discretion by the sale of goods and will retain the proceeds towards or to meet all debts, claims and liabilities due or to become due by the customer to the company.
Prices & Payment
Prices are inclusive of VAT at the rate applicable at the time of your order.
The price of our products, services and any additional delivery or charges is set out on the website at the date of your order or such other price as we may agree in writing.
Payment may be made by submitting your credit or debit card details with your order and we can take payment immediately or otherwise before delivery of goods.
Delivery Policy
Please note that delivery is free for all subsequent orders over £95 and there is a delivery surcharge of £10 below this threshold. Deliveries are made by DHL from Monday to Friday. We offer an overnight delivery service for all orders placed before 12:00pm, although please note that deliveries placed after 12:00pm on a Friday will be processed on the following Tuesday and deliveries may take slightly longer during busy periods.
Please note that the above delivery information relates to orders for delivery to UK mainland only and excludes Northern Ireland, Isle of Wight, The Scilly Isles and Channel Isles. We are happy to arrange delivery to non-UK mainland addresses, however the delivery cost will be considerably more than the price shown above. Please contact the Winery for a quotation.
All wine must be signed for on delivery by an adult aged 18 years or over. If no one of that age is at the address when the delivery is attempted, the goods may be retained by the delivery agent, in which case the delivery agent will leave notification of attempted delivery for the customer to rearrange delivery at a more convenient time. In these circumstances, if the company has to re-deliver the goods, a further delivery charge may become due and payable by the customer.
If you are out when the courier arrives, there is the option to inform us of a safe place or a neighbour where the wine can be left. Please note that we cannot accept responsibility for any wines that have not been signed for.
Returns/Risk
All wine shall be at the customer’s risk from the point of delivery to the customer. It is our responsibility to supply you with goods that meet your consumer rights. Upon receipt, if your order does not meet the quality expected from Wiston Estate, please contact us in the first instance to arrange a return. If the product is faulty, we will replace at no cost to yourself.
Cancellations – Wine
In accordance with the Consumer Contracts Regulations, you may cancel your order up to 14 days after receipt of the goods. Please contact Wiston Estate in writing if you wish to cancel your order – email [email protected] or call 01903877845. If the product is faulty, we will arrange for the goods to be returned to us at no cost to yourself and for your payment to be refunded. Please note that all wine must be returned in the state that it was received. Any damage will need to be reimbursed to the company.
If you have simply changed your mind after 14 days, you can return the items to us at your own cost and we will refund the cost of the wine.
Additionally, in accordance with the Alternative Dispute Resolution for Consumer Disputes (Competent Authorities and Information) Regulations 2015, if you would like more information regarding an online dispute, please visit the European Online Dispute Platform.
Age Restrictions
It is illegal to sell wine to anyone who is under 18 years old. For this reason the company reserves the right to refuse to accept an order. Furthermore, the company will not permit any order to be transferred from the original customer to another person in order to avoid the age restrictions that it must comply with. By placing an order the customer is confirming they are at least 18 years old.
If the company’s delivery agents are in any doubt about the age of the recipient on delivery, they will request some form of ID. If the person receiving the goods is unable to produce appropriate ID, unfortunately our delivery agents will be unable to leave the goods.
