How is my wine packaged?


We want to ensure your wine is delivered safely. To do this, we:  

  • Pack fragile items using bottle dividers and sturdy packaging to minimise breakage.
  • Use outer boxes designed with strong structural integrity to ensure safe transit.  

We continually review and improve our packaging to maintain the highest standards and improve our methods wherever needed.
