FAQ – DELIVERY

How are my bottles protected during delivery ?

How can I have my order delivered to an address other than my billing address ?

When validating your order, fill in your personal details on the one hand. If you wish to have your order delivered to a different address, check the box labeled “Ship to a different address?” and fill in the different fields. you can also specify additional notes in the “Order notes (optional)” field.


What if one or more bottles are broken during delivery ?

This is extremely rare, but it can happen …
Always check your packages at the time of delivery: if a bottle is broken, the packaging box will inevitably be marked (significant stain, even dry). A simple glance is enough.
Then open the box in the presence of the deliveryman and have the number and types of damaged bottles mentioned on the delivery slip. If possible, take pictures and let us know right away.


Are the packages insured? what happens if the bottles arrive in pieces ?

What is important is to check the condition of your packages and your bottles upon receipt and in the presence of the delivery person. If you identify any breakage, mention it in writing to the deliveryman on the delivery slip, specifying the number and references of the broken bottles, and keep a copy. Notify us immediately by sending us a scan of the delivery slip as well as photos of the damaged package and bottles.
We will do what is necessary to have the broken bottles re-delivered to you without delay and at no cost.
