​

TITLE AND OWNERSHIP

​

Title to, and ownership of all wine passes from Tinto Wine to the purchaser in the State of Virginia if purchased via our Virginia Beach, VA location. The purchaser assumes all responsibility for shipping the wine from Virginia to his/her home state. By placing an order, buyer authorizes seller to act on buyer’s behalf to arrange for transportation of the buyer’s wine at the buyer’s direction. By arranging for transportation of the wine, Tinto Wine is providing a service to, and acting on behalf of the purchaser. By utilizing this service from Tinto Wine, the purchaser is representing that he/she is acting in a fashion compliant with his/her local and state laws regarding the purchase, transportation and delivery of wine. The purchaser represents that he/she has obtained any required permission, paid any required fees, is working through properly licensed intermediaries where required, is legally entitled to take possession of wine and is legally entitled to take quantities ordered and once again authorizes that he/she is 21 years of age. Seller makes no representation as to the legal rights of anyone to ship or import any wines, alcoholic beverages or other goods into any state. The purchaser is solely responsible for the shipment of wine and other goods purchased and for determining the legality and the tax/duty consequences of having the wine and other goods shipped to the applicable destination. Alternatively, purchaser may choose to pick up the wine at seller’s location, or make shipping arrangements independent of Tinto Wine.

​

SHIPPING CHARGES

​

Unless otherwise agreed, the prices of our wines do not include charges for shipping, the cost of which varies depending on what delivery options buyer selects and may include destination, number of bottles ordered and expedited shipping and insurance protections. The appropriate shipping charges will appear in the shopping cart during checkout.

​

It is the purchaser’s responsibility to provide a current, shippable, physical delivery address. In the event a shipment cannot be delivered due to an incorrect address provided by the purchaser, or after three delivery attempts by the carrier, seller reserves the right to charge purchaser the applicable carrier fee for rerouting to an alternative address or re-shipping to the same address. Seller is unable to assist in arranging for shipment to P.O. Boxes, military APOs/FPOs/DPOs/MPOs or international addresses.

​

If purchaser’s shipment is returned to our facility, we will not re-ship until the purchaser has provided additional shipment instruction such as an alternative deliverable address.
