5. Returns and Refunds.

We will accept a return of any bottle of wine that is damaged, flawed, or that the customer finds unsatisfactory, for a refund of your purchase price, less the original shipping and handling costs, provided such return is made within 30 days of delivery and provided such products are returned in their original condition.
