FAQs

I’ve ordered from a Wedding Gift List, where will this be delivered?
If your order is part of a Wedding Gift List, this will be added to the happy couple’s cellar and delivered all together to their requested address. Please note the Wedding List details should be indicated within the delivery note section.

I’ve ordered an en primeur/ wine under bond, how long will it be until I can take delivery?
Wines bought en primeur are shipped to your chosen address or storage facility when ready from the winery. Typically for Bordeaux en primeur, this is 2 years following the en primeur offer. For Burgundy and other regions it can vary, please enquire for more information.
Some bonded wines are offered from stock and may be available immediately. Duty & VAT will be applicable to all bonded wines requested for delivery to mainland UK and EU addresses.

Do you offer storage?
We offer both bonded and duty paid storage, please see our website for further details: https://www.davywine.co.uk/cellar-storage/

How much does delivery cost?
Delivery is free of charge on orders over £150 from our website (please see Delivery for more information). Delivery charges for wines from our bonded warehouse (en primeur orders and most Fine Wine offers) can be viewed here.
