During delivery, if there is visible damage to the packaging or contents, you must sign the delivery receipt that the courier keeps, indicating ACCEPTED WITH RESERVATION and specifying the issue encountered (e.g. wet package, broken package, reconditioned package, etc.).
Wine tastes corked, what can I do?
Cork taint is transmitted to wine from the cork when it is infected by a harmless fungus of the cork oak. It can sometimes overpower the organoleptic properties of the wine; it is not uncommon for it to be confused with the natural characteristics of certain wines, such as strong woody or toasted aromas. If you find cork taint in one or more bottles, you can contact us. Then, you will need to send the bottles considered non-compliant to the Vino.com™ headquarters using the return procedure. The product(s) must be returned with at least 2/3 of the content and the original cork; the bottle(s) must be shipped in Vino.com™ packaging to preserve their integrity. Upon receipt of the bottles, the Vino.com™ sommelier will verify the reported defect, and if confirmed, Vino.com™ will proceed with the refund for the affected bottles.
Can I receive an invoice?
Yes, at the time of purchase, you can choose whether to receive a receipt or an invoice. In any case, you will receive the chosen document via email after payment, along with the order confirmation. If you do not receive it, you can request it by contacting our Customer Support Team. For orders with a total amount exceeding 3,599.99 €, an invoice will be mandatory. Therefore, you will be required to enter your Tax Code or VAT number.
