We deliver to most of the UK mainland. We're sorry that the standard delivery charge excludes the Scottish Islands, Scottish Highlands, Isles of Scilly, Isle of Wight and the Isle of Man, but we can arrange delivery to these areas for an additional charge. Please contact customer services for details ( 0800 197 0066). We regret that we do not deliver to Northern Ireland or overseas.
You will receive a number of emails tracking the progress of your order. We strongly recommend that you propose an address where there will always be someone present to sign for the delivery (such as a work address). If no-one is home when Amtrak attempt to deliver your wine the carrier will leave a card explaining they have called and they will re-attempt to deliver the wine the following day. If the parcel is not delivered on the second attempt, then another calling card will be left explaining Amtrak have attempted a second delivery and the parcel can be collected from the local Amtrak Depot. If the wine is not collected from the Amtrak Depot within the next 2 days the goods will be returned to booths-wine.co.uk and the customer will then be responsible for collecting the parcel from booths-wine.co.uk at their own expense.
There is an option to give us specific instructions to leave the wine in a safe place if you know you will not be at home to receive your order. Simply fill in the box marked "Special Delivery Instructions" when placing your order. You can send a delivery to someone else if you want - when you come to the Order Details page ‘Delivery Address’ simply fill out the address you would like your order sent to as well as your own billing address. Unfortunately we cannot currently deliver to more than one address per order.

Unfortunately being a perishable product, wine will from time to time be out of condition when you come to drink it. This is normally termed as 'corked' wine and occurs in less than one percent of wines consumed. If you are unfortunate enough to find a 'corked' wine within your case, please contact the customer service department. We will arrange for the wine to be collected within two weeks and your account will be credited immediately.
If the product is delivered damaged or the wrong product is sent in error, please contact our customer service department and we will arrange for a replacement to be dispatched as soon as possible and for the damaged/wrong goods to be collected. If that wine is no longer available, we will offer an alternative product or give you the opportunity of a refund.
