Purchases from our Website
We support the responsible service of alcohol and you may only purchase alcohol from us or our associates if you are aged 18 years or over.
Goods will be despatched by Southwood Wines under Tasmanian Special Liquor Licence 95631.
You agree that:
- Both you and the person(s) receiving a delivery of goods purchased from our website are aged 18 years or over.
- If you place an order for goods on our website, you enter into a contract with Southwood Wines for the supply of those goods. Each accepted order is a separate contract.
- Southwood Wines can accept or reject an order for any reason, including (without limitation) unavailability of goods, an error in the pricing, image or goods description, or an error in your order.
- All information and data you provide when ordering is accurate, complete and up to date, and you will promptly notify us of any changes to this information or data.
- All prices quoted for wine and other goods sold are displayed in Australian Dollars (AUD) and are inclusive of GST. Your freight and handling charges will be calculated and added to the purchase price before you are asked to place your order. Prices listed on this website are subject to change until you have paid for the goods.
- You may make payment during the checkout process or via direct deposit after you have placed your order. Southwood Wines will send you an electronic tax invoice/receipt via email when your payment has been processed.
- Once the payment for your order has been processed, you will be unable to cancel it. Southwood Wines only accepts online orders from, and delivers to, mainland Australia and Tasmania.

Please allow approximately 14 working days for delivery to Australian capital cities and surrounding suburbs, longer for regional deliveries. Southwood Wines will not deliver any goods to persons who cannot provide satisfactory evidence that they are aged 18 years or over. We are not responsible for any loss resulting from late delivery.
- Southwood Wines will use its best endeavours to ensure that goods are available for delivery. In some cases this will not be possible and we may need to reject an order for goods after payment has been processed. In these cases, we will refund you in full all amounts paid for the unavailable goods.
- Once the goods have been delivered to the nominated delivery address, you assume all risk and title in the goods (including the risks associated with storing the goods).
- Southwood Wines will comply with all Australian laws that relate to the delivery of wine that has been ordered from our website.
Refunds and Returns
By law, we cannot accept returns of alcoholic beverages unless the product is faulty, or damaged. We are not obliged to accept returns of wine that is ordered in error.
We will replace or refund you for any bottle of wine that is damaged in transit, or is deemed faulty by our winemaking team.
For faulty bottles, we require the unfinished portion of the original bottle to be returned for testing.
Please send an email to info@southwoodwines.com.au to arrange for the return and replacement of faulty or damaged wines.
Once the wine is received back at the winery, the winemaking team will assess the quality and we will refund you for the original purchase cost of the wine less shipping and handling. If the original shipment was damaged or flawed you will receive a full refund, including shipping and handling charges.
