CONDITIONS FOR YOUR WINE AND PORT SHIPPING FROM PORTUGAL

IF YOU DON'T FIND THE ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTIONS, WE WILL BE HAPPY TO HEAR FROM YOU!

WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY FIRST ORDER?

For your purchases in private sales and in the shop you are generally delivered a short week after your order or after the date of shipment of the private sale when this date is deferred.

You will receive your first order within 10 days after your subscription. . 

After that, you will receive your order in the middle of each month.

When your order leaves the warehouse of PORTOVINTAGE.COM, you will be informed about the expected date of delivery by email.

IS THE SHIPMENT SAFE?

Yes, 100%. All shipments are insured in a box of rigid expanded polystyrene. This material has a double advantage:

  • Its resistance protects the bottles from any shocks during the transportation.
  • Its insulating power also protects the contents of the bottles against thermal shock.

Moreover, each box is hermetically sealed by a strip that guarantees that the box will not be opened during the transportation.

WHO MANAGES ALL THE SHIPMENTS?

Our shipping method guarantees that your wine remains stored in the producers' cellars for as long as possible. After for a short period of time, your wine stays at our warehouse just for the logistic treatment and finally GLS will deliver the order at your door.

HOW WILL I BE INFORMED OF MY DELIVERY?

When your order leaves our warehouse, you are informed by email of the expected delivery date. Then, it is GLS (our logistic partner) who takes over and keeps you informed by email or SMS.

WHEN AND HOW WILL I KNOW WHICH PORTS ARE PROPOSED FOR THE NEXT MONTH?

Every month, when our Committee Selection chooses new Port wines, you will receive an email with a technical sheet and the reasons for the preference.

WILL THE PRICES INCREASE?

It is not our intention. We will do everything to mantain the current prices. However, if it ins't possible to do otherwise, we will always inform you in advance.
