DELIVERY
Where do you deliver?
We can deliver all over the UK. Our own delivery vans cover Glasgow and parts of Scotland. We use a small number of trusted courier companies for the areas we don’t cover.
How much is delivery?
Trade customers: Delivery is free Mon to Fri.
Private customers: Delivery is free if the area is covered by our vans. Otherwise there is a £12 (inc VAT) charge for the rest of the UK and a £20 (inc VAT) charge for a Saturday delivery.
Can I choose a specific delivery day?
Yes. In our own vans we have specific runs during the week but if this does not suit you then we will endeavour to sort something out. The other option would be a carrier delivery that would incur a charge. Please call our office team on 0141 882 0039 to discuss.
Can I collect my order?
Yes, if this is more convenient to you then we can organise a time for you to collect from our warehouse. Our hours are Monday – Friday 9am – 5.30pm
My order has not arrived, what should I do?
Please call our office on 0141 882 0039 and we will endeavour to sort this out for you.
My order is a gift. Can I include a message?
Yes, of course. Simply let us know at the time of your order by typing it in the wish list box or when you place the order over the phone.
STOCK
Do you sell beer, spirits and soft drinks?
No, we only sell wine. We love the stuff!
Why are there no prices on your website?
This is a trade website so we don’t have any prices to show to the general public. But if you are interested in buying our wine, please get in touch via the wishlist or call to speak to one of our office team who could let you know what outlets we sell to.
If I am looking for a particular wine. Can you source it for me?
Unfortunately, we are unable to order small amounts of wines that we don’t already stock for one-off orders. However, our office staff are very knowledgeable, and will be very happy to help you choose an alternative wine from our range according to your chosen style and budget.
I bought a specific year but I got sent a different vintage. Why?
By its very nature, wine is a product in a finite supply and vintages can often run out or be replaced at very short notice. We always endeavour to keep the information on the website up to date but we do reserve the right to send out different vintages from the ones advertised without notice. If you are especially keen on a specific vintage, please do call us on 0141 882 0039 beforehand.
How will I know if wine I have ordered is out of stock?
Very occasionally we may run out of a particular wine without notice. Should this be the case we will be in touch to let you know when it will be back in stock and recommend an alternative if required.
RETURN /REFUNDS
What if my wine arrives damaged/broken?
We’re happy to refund any product which is received broken. Please contact us directly on 0141 882 0039 or email enquiries@alexander-wines.co.uk within 7 days of receipt of your order and we will make the necessary arrangements to refund the broken product as soon as possible following our agreement to do so.
What if my wine is corked?
If you buy a wine from us that is corked or otherwise faulty we will issue a credit provided:
- It was purchased from us in the last 6 months
- It is not a fine wine (over £50 a bottle) or a bin-end
- It has not been damaged or improperly stored
