Important Compliance Requirements

FedEx and other carriers we might occasionally use can only deliver wine to customers who are 21 years or older. Someone must be at the address to receive the package, carriers don't just drop a package and leave. They must ensure the person receiving the wine is 21 or older.

Re-shipping a Package

If a package is returned to us after three failed delivery attempts, we can only re-ship the wine upon payment of a re-shipping fee, to be determined based on the shipping address and number of bottles. Shipping wine is extremely expensive. We are sorry about this, but we have no other choice. Please make sure there's always someone at the address you enter as your shipping address.

If you'd like to receive a refund for a package that was returned to us after FedEx made three delivery attempts, we can do that but we must keep a $20 refund fee; FedEx charges us a lot of money for returns, unfortunately, I can't stress this enough.

Re-routing a Package

If you'd like to reroute a package after it's been shipped, we can do so for a $20 re-routing fee. We cannot re-route a package across state borders. For any change of address, please contact us as soon as possible, ideally within 1-2 days from placing the order or we cannot guarantee we'll be able to reroute or change your order's shipping address.

Canceling an Order

If you'd like to cancel an order after it's been shipped, we can do so upon payment of a small cancellation fee – the amount depends on the size of the order. Carriers charge us a lot of money to recall a package en-route.

Heat/Frost damage

We are not responsible for heat- or frost-related issues. We offer ice-packs upon request. Please let us know if you think that there could be heat-related issues. If we don't hear anything from you regarding weather issues before an order is shipped, or if you don't request a hold due to the weather, we are not responsible for heat/frost damage.

Placed an order. What next?

1. You will receive an order confirmation email with your order summary.*

2. As soon as your order ships from the warehouse, usually within 2-3 business days, this applies to all shipping rates, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with your tracking information. 2DAY shipping refers to shipping time; we still need 2-3 business days to prepare an order. We need to pick and pack, QA, add printed collateral, and palletize the orders.

3. Please track your package using the tracking service.

4. The carrier will attempt delivery a maximum of 3 times. After 3 delivery attempts, your package will be sent back to our warehouse.**

Producer profile

Tintero

The Tintero story began in 1900, when a Frenchman named Pierre Tintero set out for Piedmont in search of work and found an opportunity at a small estate where widow Rosina Cortese was struggling to handle all the work herself. Called 'Pietrin' by the locals, he married the widow two years later, and the couple bottled their own Dolcetto for the first time just as war fell in 1914. Pietrin and Rosina's two sons, Giovanni and Carlo, eventually took over the estate and expanded it by purchasing adjacent vineyard plots. Elvio has now handed the reins over to the next generation, but he continues to help his son Marco and daughter-in-law Cinzia run the estate.

Farming is sustainable. The family follows the evolution of ecosystems using more suitable and less 'revolutionary' agronomical practices, with specialized technicians ensuring compatibility with both the protection of the environment and the care of natural space. The commune of Mango is the heart of Moscato country, and 20 of the Tinteros' 30 hectares are planted to this grape.

For the Langhe Nebbiolo, the vineyard is located in the village of Neive, next to Mango, within the Alba zone. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tank for 2-3 weeks, followed by 12 months of aging in oak (50% 225-liter barrels, 50% 5-hectoliter botti), then racking into stainless steel before bottling unfiltered. The estate is imported to the US by Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant.
