Delivery & Logistics

Politique d'expédition

We ship fine wines and spirits worldwide from two dedicated hubs — France for European and international customers, Switzerland for Swiss residents. Naturally, every bottle gets the care it deserves.

At Wines & Spirits SA, we treat logistics as a core part of the experience, not an afterthought. Indeed, our dual-hub strategy reflects a simple reality: serving collectors in 25 countries from a single warehouse would mean higher costs, slower transit, and unnecessary customs complications. Therefore, we operate from both France and Switzerland to offer each customer the most direct, cost-effective route possible.

Tarifs et temps de transit

Tarifs d'expédition par destination

Below, all rates appear in CHF and scale with the number of bottles per order. Of course, exact rates display at checkout once you enter your delivery address. For oversized formats (magnums, jeroboams), wooden cases, or special requests, please contact us directly.

Pour les commandes plus importantes, les attributions de collectionneurs, les caisses en bois pleines ou les destinations non répertoriées, veuillez contacter nous contacter for a personalised quote. In addition, we regularly arrange dedicated shipments to Asia, the Middle East, and North America.

Emballage et manutention

Comment nous protégeons vos bouteilles

We pack every bottle in a purpose-built multi-bottle shipper with individual cardboard or foam compartments. Furthermore, fragile collector items — vintage wines over 20 years old, limited-edition whisky, magnums, and bottles with damaged labels or compromised foils — receive additional inner protection with bubble wrap, kraft paper, and reinforced outer cartons.

For orders of six bottles or more, we use certified SafeCargo® cases tested for drop resistance. Moreover, when shipments cross temperature extremes — notably during summer months to Asia, the Middle East, or the southern United States — we offer thermal insulation on request to protect against heat damage.

In addition, we fully insure all orders during transit. In the rare event of breakage or loss, we will issue a full replacement or refund upon receipt of photographic evidence and the carrier’s damage report.

Conditions importantes

Avant de commander

Vérification de l'âge

All our deliveries require the recipient to be of legal drinking age in their country of residence. Specifically, an adult of legal age must sign upon delivery. As a result, we reserve the right to cancel any order if we cannot confirm age verification. Notably, under Swiss law, selling alcohol to persons under 18 is prohibited.

Droits de douane et taxes à l'importation

For deliveries within the European Union shipped from our French hub, EU VAT is pre-paid and no additional customs clearance applies. By contrast, for all deliveries outside the EU and Switzerland — including the United States, Canada, Japan, Singapore, Australia, the UAE, and other international destinations — the recipient bears sole responsibility for any applicable import duties, VAT, excise taxes, or local handling fees, as our Conditions générales d'utilisation state. Therefore, we strongly recommend checking your country’s alcohol import regulations before ordering — indeed, some destinations require a specific import license for private customers, particularly the United States and certain Asian countries.

Délai de traitement des commandes

For orders placed before 2:00 PM CET on business days, we process them the same day. However, orders placed on weekends or Swiss public holidays move to the next business day. As soon as your parcel leaves our warehouse, you will receive a tracking number by email.

Enlèvement local en Suisse

Swiss customers can choose to pick up their order directly at our Eclépens location by appointment. Of course, this option is free of charge and allows you to collect rare bottles the same day in many cases. After placing your order, please contact us to arrange a convenient pickup time.

Politique de retour

Due to the nature of our products — rare, limited-edition, and often temperature-sensitive fine wines and spirits — we do not accept returns once we dispatch an order and the parcel has been opened. However, in the case of a bottle arriving damaged, leaking, or materially different from the product ordered, please contact us within 48 hours of delivery for a full replacement or refund. Above all, photographic evidence is required.
