Nothing wrong with service, but would be better if the delivery company, dpd, would give more notice when the delivery has to be received in person.

Relatively quick delivery and good communication. Courier (DPD) was not so great as package delivered wrong way up and was open.

Delivery

It would be ideal if i was offered 2 alternative delivery slots to chose, or if the delivery was done after 10:00 (i sleep between 03:00 - 10:00 and was woken up by the delivery).

Dear Customer,

We are very sorry to hear that you were woken up by the courier making the delivery.

You should have received a tracking link the day before the delivery with options to change the delivery.

Great selection of available wines

Great selection of available wines. Good website and easy ordering. Delivered as promised. A little pricey but some good bin end deals often available.

Delivery by DX is just woeful and failed 3 times.

Whilst ordering was easy delivery by DX is woeful. On 3 occasions Przemyslaw the driver has failed to deliver and said that he left a card through the door.! Not our door and n all 3 occasions we were here. On the last delivery slot I tracked him and he wasn't in the village when I got notification that DX could not deliver. I am beginning to think that wine direct.co.uk is a scam. We are easy to find right next to a primary school and the driver has lied. Everyone else finds us and now the wine has been in transit for over a week.

Dear Customer,

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. As a small family run business, all feedback is very important to us, as it helps us improve.

We are very sorry about the experience you had with the delivery. This is completely unacceptable and we have already spoken with the local depot to ensure this does not happen again.

Best wishes,

To bring a wine from California

To bring a wine from California, USA to UK, that was not readily available on their website made me want to write about my experience with Wine Direct. The Wine Direct online app was quick, professional, informative of every step and efficient.
The wine was excellent.

Art de Vivre French Wine

First time I have used Wine Direct and so pleased that I did. They have a very efficient and easy way of ordering wines and delivery was very fast. All items are very well packaged and received in excellent condition. I highly recommend this company and they continually updated me on the status of my order. Will definitely use Wine Direct again!

Quite quick

Wine was received after 3 days or so, not of a problem with DPD but they came through in the end

A favourite wine fast

We had drunk the last of one of our favourite wines (Greywacke pinot gris) when we spotted it on WineDirect’s website, and on offer. We ordered it on Tuesday evening and it was delivered Thursday. Excellent!
