  • Purchase of Alcoholic Beverages. By placing your order you have represented to Del Mesa Liquor you are at least 21 years old and are giving 100% consent to Del Mesa Liquor to charge your credit card for the total amount of your order.  You represent to Del Mesa Liquor that all items purchased on the Site are for personal consumption and not for resale.  You will be charged sales tax, if any, as may be assessed by your State for the sale of alcoholic beverages; otherwise California sales tax will be assessed on the sale as California charges sales tax for anything sold in this State. You will also be responsible for any local taxes imposed by your State, if any.  In the event an item ordered is out of stock, we will notify you via email with information on its next availability.  At that time, you may wait for the product to arrive, replace it with another item, or remove it from the order altogether.  We will adjust the total payment accordingly.  Once an order is placed, any address change request must be made promptly.  Del Mesa Liquor will make a good faith effort to accommodate such request but makes no guarantee such address change can be accomplished.  All fees and costs associated with an address change request will be passed to the customer. Non-California residents are responsible for determining if their state or county laws allow wines, spirits or tobacco products to be shipped into their state or county. Each state or county has their own laws and regulations related to these products. Please check with your appropriate agencies. Each individual accepts full responsibility for their state verification. 
  • Title to Goods. Laws concerning the sale and shipping of alcoholic beverages are complex and vary from State to State.  Accordingly, you will be the legal owner of the goods when your order is approved by your credit card company.  Title to all alcoholic beverages purchased on this Site pass to you in the State of California when the goods are picked up by the common carrier.
  • Shipping Laws. You are responsible for abiding by all State and local laws, rules, and regulations of your State pertaining to the receipt of alcoholic beverages from out of state.  You additionally represent you have obtained any required permission, paid any required fees, are working through properly licensed intermediaries where required, and are legally entitled to take possession of the alcoholic beverages.  You further represent you are legally entitled to take possession of the quantities ordered, and that you and the person accepting delivery of the alcoholic beverages are at least 21 years of age.  By making a purchase on our Site, you are asking us to appoint a common carrier and arrange for transportation on your behalf for the delivery of alcoholic beverages to you.  By making use of this service from Del Mesa Liquor, you are representing you are acting in agreement with your local and State laws regarding the purchase, transportation, and delivery of alcoholic beverages.  Accordingly, we make no representations or warranties concerning the legal requirements of shipping alcoholic beverages to your State; our Website merely provides a list of those States where common carriers have indicated their willingness to deliver alcohol.  As such, you understand and acknowledge you are accountable and liable for compliance with all laws concerning such shipments to your State, and you further agree to indemnify and hold harmless Del Mesa Liquor, its agents, officers, directors, shareholders, and employees, from any and all claims, demands, damages, liability whatsoever, whether in tort, contract, or otherwise, arising out of the shipment of alcoholic beverages to your State, including any and all claims that such shipment may violate any federal, state, or local regulation pertaining to the sale and shipment of alcoholic beverages.
  • International Shipping. We currently do not offer international shipping at this time.
  • Change in Shipping Laws. Following the placement of any order, and prior to the goods being shipped, in the event the laws of your State change so as to make it illegal for you to import alcoholic beverages into your State, you may return the order for a full refund, provided however, you have submitted proof to Del Mesa Liquor, and its counsel, of regulations pertaining to such law changes.  All returns must be made in accordance with California law and returns across state lines are not permitted.  Once an order has shipped, title to the goods has passed to you in accordance with the terms and conditions stated herein and no refund can be issued.
  • Processing and Shipping. Once an order is placed and processed by Del Mesa Liquor, a tracking number for all shipments will be issued to the customer.  While Del Mesa Liquor tries to make every effort to fulfill orders as fast as possible, a typical order can take an average of 2-5 business days to ship.  However, please allow 8-10 business days for delivery, meaning no weekend deliveries. If you order on a Friday, it won't be shipped until the following Monday. This includes Express orders. Shipping charges are calculated based on weight, destination, and delivery method.  All products delivered must be signed by an adult over the age of 21.  Deliveries will not be left “at the front door” or other arrangement without such signature.  You are responsible for checking your order immediately upon delivery.  Items must be reported as missing or incorrect within five (5) calendar days from the date of delivery. In the event an incorrect item was shipped, you must submit a photo of the sealed bottle in an email to support@delmesaliquor.com
  • Refunds. All sales are final. If you order on accident you MUST email immediately to be fully refunded. Anything after an immediate email will be subject to a 25% restocking fee. Customers that pay for shipping insurance can email support@delmesaliquor with their order number and relay any issues through email. While Del Mesa Liquor takes every precaution to ensure your order is packaged properly and arrives safely, Del Mesa Liquor is NOT responsible for leaks in transit. Bottles are meant to be upright and in order to ship they are laid down flat. Leaks are a manufacturer defect and not our responsibility. Without shipping insurance, customer assumes ALL risk. All orders are shipped in durable boxes and packaged with layers of foam cushioning to protect the bottles. The option of choosing insurance on the package falls on the customer. Orders that include original packaging from the manufacturer or contain irregular-shaped bottles may be packed differently, but securely in Del Mesa Liquor’s sound business judgment. During times of bad weather (extreme heat, snow storm etc.), you are responsible for notifying Del Mesa Liquor of any special request to hold and postpone your order. Del Mesa Liquor will not be responsible for any damages whatsoever due to the weather or climate conditions during shipment. We do not guarantee the quality of the wine in the bottles. Wine, especially older wine, is susceptible to age, spoilage, and heat damage. All the wine has been properly stored in our cellar but we cannot guarantee the quality of older vintages. Spoilage due to weather conditions is NOT covered by any insurance and buyer assumes all risk.
