Frequently asked questions
Private at home tastings
Yes, of course you may invite more than 12 people! You may invite up to 24. There will be an extra charge for this as we will require more bottles of wine.
I’ll bring one extra bottle of wine to replace a corked/ off bottle. However, since we cannot predict which wine may be corked/ off, it will be a new wine that is not on our slated agenda.
Rest assured, the spare wine bottle will fit the wine theme of the evening.
The only time when we cannot replace wine for an event is when a aged wine is choosen for the theme (8+ years old, for example). This is simply a risk when purchasing cellared wine
After payment is due, if the wine has been shipped, there are no refunds. If the wine has not been shipped, we will refund 50% of the fees.
Virtual Wine Tastings
Up to 10 different households. There is a fee for wine and delivery charges to each additional household.
Luckily, this is a rare event. However, there is currently no way for us to return the bottle and get you a new bottle of wine.
If the wine has already been shipped, there are no refunds. If the wine has not been shipped, we will refund 50% of the fees.
Wine Deliveries
Wine deliveries and therefore virtual wine tastings are currently available for British Columbia residents only.
Vancouver deliveries
For Vancouver, wine is delivered via Courier. We share your name, email address and phone number with the courier so they can arrange delivery times with you. Delivery times vary by area and are available from 11am-5pm on weekdays. Weekend deliveries are limited and will need to be arranged separately.
As this is alcohol, someone must be home to recieve the wine delivery. A valid government-issued photo id must be shown to the driver to confirm the recipient is of legal drinking age.
