How can I prevent my wine from spoiling in transit during extreme weather?

UPS Wine Solution:

In the summer, you have the option for UPS Summer Wine Solutions as a shipping method when shipping to high temperature locations. This will help protect your wine while in transit. Please indicate that you would like this option upon checkout. Note: This option will ship within 48-72 hours from the Willamette Valley Vineyards shipping center and will reach your destination by air. This method is highly recommended as summer temperatures may adversely affect the condition of your wine during shipment.

UPS Summer Wine Solution will not ship out on Sundays. 

Special savings:

  • $40 Flat-Rate shipping on orders over $350
  • $20 Flat-Rate shipping on orders over $450

UPS HubBox:

Willamette Valley Vineyards now offers UPS shipping options to include HubBox. 

This feature allows customers to order their wine and pick it up at a UPS Access Point location in their local area instead of their order being sent to a residential address. Pickup locations will hold products for up to 5 days. There is no additional cost. To ship to a HubBox location, contact your Winery Ambassador or select this option at checkout.

Willamette Valley Vineyards may decide to hold ground shipments when necessary to protect your wine. You'll receive an email with tracking information when the wine is safe to ship. If weather is a concern in your area or if your order is time sensitive, we suggest selecting a 2-day or overnight option In the summer months we offer a climate controlled option.

How do I select a wine online when I can't taste them?

Call our team or use the chat function on the bottom right corner of our website to speak with a Winery Ambassador about wine recommendations. 
 

Do you offer any specials on shipping when purchasing multiple bottles or cases of wine?

Yes, we offer $15 flat-rate ground shipping on all wine orders over $250 after discounts are applied and complimentary UPS Ground Shipping on wine orders of $300 or more after discounts are applied to a single address in the continental United States. Plus, save 10% on 6+ bottles or 15% of 12+ bottles. If you are a Wine Club Member or Owner, you may use your 20% or 25% discount with the shipping special. 

I just placed my order. When will it arrive?

Your order will ship in 1-2 business days after your order is processed. We do not offer same-day shipping. 

UPS is our primary provider, on occasion we will use FedEx for weather-specialized delivery, which takes an additional day to process. 

Should you select 2-3 day shipping, your wine still may not arrive until the following week (depending on the day the order was placed) as UPS does not deliver over the weekend. 

 

Can I schedule my delivery?

Unfortunately, once your order leaves our warehouse it is on UPS or FedEx to fulfill it, and we cannot guarantee a specific time or date for delivery. 

 

Will I need to sign for my wine when it arrives?

State law requires that the recipient of a wine order must be age 21 and up and sign for their order when it arrives.
 

Can I return my wine?

We guarantee our wines 100% and will replace or refund any bottle of wine that is damaged, flawed or doesn’t meet expectations — we want to make it right. We accept returned wines that follow our shipping guidelines. 

Please send an email to info@wvv.com or call (800) 344-9463 to arrange the return or replacement.
