Storage

Proper storage conditions are essential for preserving the quality and value of fine wine.
All of our wines and customer reserves are housed in established bonded warehouses located in the UK and France. These state-of-the-art facilities are specially designed to maintain a consistent temperature of 13°C and 70% humidity, both monitored by advanced computer systems.

We guarantee optimal and secure storage for your wine in these facilities. Our advanced handling and logistics capabilities also enable us to provide the exceptional collection and delivery service our customers expect.

Storage Fees
Our storage fee is per year, excluding VAT:

€21.00 per 9-litre case (12 bottles, 6 magnums, etc.)
€11.00 per 4.5-litre case (6 bottles, 3 magnums, etc.)

This fee includes insurance at full replacement value and applies to wines that remain uncollected or undelivered three months after the sale date.

Customers using our storage services can rest assured that their wines are professionally stored under ideal conditions.
