En Primeur Terms & Conditions

How sales ‘en primeur’ work.

 You choose the wines you want to buy now, and we will invoice youat the prices quoted. Effectively you are buying the wine overseas, often before it has been bottled. We will then invoice you for duty at the prevailing rate. (Note that from February 2025 the rate will depending on the level of alcohol. For example a bottle of wine with12.5% of alcohol  will incur duty of £2.76, whilst 13.5% will be £2.99). In addition we will invoice for VAT (currently 20%), on the cost
of the wine and the duty, when it is shipped from the late spring of 2025 onwards. As an example, if you buy a case of 12 bottles now for £180.00 with 12.5% abv, then assuming VAT remains the same we will invoice you for £69.12 prior to sending you your wine. Prices are valid until the end of April 2025. Terms and conditions. The wine is offered in 12 bottle, 6 bottle or 3 bottle units. Please note that wine will NOT be available for delivery in bond. To enable us to be as competitive as possible we ship all wine to our own warehouse, duty paid. We will then deliver it on to you or to your preferred place of storage at our standard delivery charge of £6.95 per case for orders under £120, or free above
£120 (including the duty and VAT). For Highlands and Islands please ask us for a quote.

Finally, whilst we make every effort to supply the wines listed, if the wines fail to be made available by the producer we will either offer to supply similar wines or alternatively refund any payments made.
