Wine-Specific Conditions

Legal Requirements

You must be 21 years of age or older, to order or receive alcoholic beverages from Halleck Vineyard. Receipt of shipments containing alcoholic beverages requires the signature of a sober adult (a person 21 years of age or older who is not intoxicated). Wines purchased from Halleck Vineyard are not for resale, and are for personal consumption only.

Credit Card Charges

Orders are by credit card only. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover and American Express.

Minimum Purchase

No minimum purchase is required.

Shipping

Your order will be shipped out to you within 2-5 days unless otherwise requested.

States Authorized for Direct Shipment

Due to the ever-changing nature of wine shipping laws, we may be able to ship wines, directly or indirectly, to most state.  If the Halleck Vineyard Winery is unable to ship directly to your state, we can arrange for the sale and shipment of our products through a third party. Please note, when dealing through a third party, wine prices, discounts, and shipping costs may differ from those quoted by Halleck Vineyard.

Shipping Costs

UPS Ground and Federal Express are Halleck Vineyard’s carriers of choice.  When checking out of your shopping cart, you can choose the carried you prefer from these two options.  Ground shipping is provided at current market rates. *Note – If the customer selects Fed Ex Air as his or her carrier, the customer pays all shipping charges, regardless of his or her wine club membership or purchase amount.

Wine is a Delicate Commodity

Wine is a perishable commodity. Wine does not like extremes of temperature: hot humid summer and cold winter weather may adversely affect the condition of your wine during shipment.  Halleck Vineyard is not responsible for, and will not replace wine that is damaged by extreme weather conditions during shipment.  When your wine order is picked up by the common carrier for delivery, responsibility for the wine becomes the responsibility of the purchaser.  Please consider 2nd day air when temperatures are extreme. 

Returns & Cancellations

We will replace or refund you for any bottle of wine that is damaged, flawed or that the customer finds unsatisfactory. We ask the customer return the unfinished portion of the original bottle for replacement. By law, we cannot accept returns of alcoholic beverages unless the product is corked, or flawed. We are also unable to accept return of wine that was damaged due to adverse weather conditions during shipment, or wine that is ordered in error. Please send an email to jennifer@halleckvineyard.com to arrange for the return of corked or flawed product.

Once the wine is received we will refund your credit card account for the cost of the wine less shipping and handling. If the original shipment was damaged or flawed you will receive a full refund, including shipping and handling charges. Please contact Jennifer Halleck at 707-738-8383 for return instructions.

A 15% (or whatever you want the percent to be) restocking fee will be applied to all canceled orders.
