You may not order wine, or have wine delivered to anyone, if you or that person are under 18 years of age at the time of ordering. You must confirm your agreement with this explicitly at the time of ordering.

When you place an order for wine on our website, and you choose online payment as your method of payment, this payment will be processed by a secure online payment gateway. If you fax or post your order to us, your order will be processed directly using other secure methods.

Your order will be fulfilled by The Sippery from our warehouse, and under normal circumstances will be delivered to your nominated delivery address within 2 to 10 business days.

In rare cases where the ordered stock is not available, The Sippery reserves the right to substitute this wine with another similar wine that is of equal or higher value. In most instances, if the current vintage of the advertised wine is no longer available, the next vintage of the same wine will be delivered. The Sippery will do this at its sole discretion, and they will also guarantee the quality of any replacement wines. If for some reason you do not like these wines, your account will be credited.
