Shipping/FAQ

Current Offers

Except where indicated, all wines offered are on a pre-arrival basis. Offers typically are open for 2-3 weeks. Then, the wines are imported and distributed before they are ready for delivery. This usually takes about 10 weeks. 

 

Offers occur most months of the year. Most producers are offered more than once per year with the selection of wines varying from offer to offer.

 

Order Processing & Tracking

All orders indicate projected a timeframe for when the wines are expected to be available for delivery.  Orders are processed in 1-3 business days once they are in-stock. 

Shipping is by common carrier. Duration estimates by region are:

  • Northeast: 2-4 business days
  • Midwest: 3-5 business days
  • Southeast: 4-7 business days
  • West: 6-9 business days

 

You will receive an email with your tracking number once it has been fulfilled. If not, please check your spam folders before contacting orders@vdltwine.com.

 

Shipping Rates

All orders are charged a low, flat rate of $16.50 ($15 for residents of NY State) for every 12 bottles. So, 3-12 bottles = $16.50 ($15 in NY), 13-24 bottles = $33 ($30 in NY), etc..

 

Extreme Weather

Shipping during warmer months is not advised. Use the notes section in the shopping cart to request a hold on your order or options for shipping during adverse conditions. We will contact you if a requested order is not advised for shipment. If you choose to have your order shipped when not advised to, you assume the risk for any damage to the wine.

 

Age Requirement

Someone 21+ with a photo id must sign for the package at the time of delivery (so, shipment to a PO Box is prohibtied) . If not, the carrier will make 2 more attempts to deliver. If the 3rd attempt is unsuccessful, the order is returned to the retailer who fulfilled your order.

 

Where do we ship?

Orders can be shipped in the continental U.S., with the exceptions of Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Mississippi, North Dakota, South Dakota & Utah. Contact us if you live in one of these states. If you live in one of these states, consider arranging shipment to a neighboring state or check with us as prohibitions can change.
