Terms & Conditions
Punters Club Terms and Conditions A minimum of two deliveries within the first 12 month is required before you may place your membership on hold or cancel. We will send you an email approx 5 days prior to shipment with details of your order and when your credit card will be charged. It is the member's responsibility to check that the shipping details are correct and contact us prior to payment if corrections need to be made. By joining and providing your details to the Punters Wine Club, you authorise Punt Road Wines to debit the provided credit card with the total cost of the wine deliveries as they occur annually in your chosen delivery months.
Club membership entitles you to receive a 10, 20%, or 25% discount, depending on your level of membership, on wine purchases, both online and at the cellar door. The membership discount is non-transferable and can just be applied to purchases made by the club member. Shipments are for members personal consumption only and must not be used for retail sale.
Change of details The member understands that it is their responsibility to inform Punt Road Wines of any change in address and delivery details. Charges incurred with recovery of wines to an old or incorrect address will be the responsibility of the member.
Termination of membership If the member wishes to cancel their membership, the request must be received prior to the processing and despatch date of their notified upcoming delivery. Members are liable to pay for only those wine packs that have been dispatched prior to membership change/cancellation notification. Wine is a perishable commodity. Wine does not like extremes of temperature: hot summer and cold winter weather may adversely affect the condition of your wine during shipment. Punt Road Wines 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.
Liquor Act Under the Liquor Control Reform Act 1998 it is an offence: To supply alcohol to a person under the age of 18 years; for a person under the age of 18 year to purchase or receive liquor. Liquor licence no. 32606886.
