Delivery times 

The standard time-frame for receiving an order is 3-10 business days for metro areas and regional areas within Australia. You accept the risk that occasionally due to circumstances which are beyond our control, including any actions taken by the delivery partners and the impact of extreme temperatures, delivery times may be longer than the standard time-frame.

14) "Dry Zone" restrictions 

As of January 2021, Casella Family Brands implemented the "Dry Zone" restrictions due to an agreement with Retail Drinks Australia and their Code of Conduct regarding Online Alcohol Sale and Delivery,. As a result, orders that are placed within the dry zones cannot be fulfilled. Unfortunately, if you are listed in a dry zone area within Australia, our distribution centre will not be able to deliver to those locations due to liquor licensing laws, liquor regulations and the Australian Governments classification of restricted areas and dry zones. 

If you are at the checkout stage of your online purchase and your location is within a dry zone, you will not be able to proceed. 

15) Risk and Title 

Risk and title in the products pass to you when: 

  • they are delivered to your delivery address; or

If the risk and title of an ordered product has passed to you, it will revert back to us if we make a refund to you. 

16) Returns 

We follow the returns requirements imposed upon us by Australian Consumer Law. To obtain a comprehensive understanding of your rights under Australian Consumer Law we suggest that you visit http://consumerlaw.gov.au/. 

Refund due to Deterioration in Quality 

We will provide you with a refund or replacement for any products that have deteriorated in quality during delivery to your delivery address. 

Aged Vintage Wines - Peter Lehmann Wines takes every care to store, handle and dispatch aged vintage wines in optimal condition. However, as wine is a living product, natural variation will occur over time. We cannot guarantee the condition of older vintage wines once they leave our cellar door, including the possibility of cork taint or other age-related variation. By purchasing aged wines, customers accept these inherent risks associated with mature wine.

17) No Resale 

You agree that all products purchased from us are not for resale and are for personal consumption only. 

18) Suspension and Termination of Your Account 

We reserve the right to refuse your Order, suspend your account(s) and/or terminate your account(s) if we determine that you have likely acted in contravention of these terms and conditions or any relevant legislation.

To ensure compliance with the Northern Territory Minimum Unit Price Legislation we may change the final price calculation of your order if you are a Northern Territory resident.
