We want you to be 100% happy with your wines, and we believe that you should never have to pay for something you don’t like!
If you're not satisfied with how a bottle tastes - we’ll credit you for it, where legal; just reach out to us at [email protected] within 30 days of delivery. We’ll credit you in the form of store credit for any disliked bottles! Please note - this excludes shipping charges.
For any credits regarding damages to single bottle(s) in your shipment, please provide photos from both the bottle(s) and the label on the box.
If your entire shipment is returned to us due to damages, just let us know and we’ll either reship them ASAP, or issue a credit to your Firstleaf account.
If your shipment is returned due to refusal or there wasn"t someone available on all three attempts, just let us know and we’ll either reship them ASAP. If you would prefer a refund, we do have a $25.00 restocking fee.
If an order is shown as delivered in the tracking information, we are not able to issue a full refund. For any shipments refused or returned to the warehouse, there is a $25 restocking fee.
If you are having trouble being at home for delivery, you can update your shipping address one of three ways:
Update the address through a FedEx Delivery Manager account: Once your order is shipped you can change the address. You can sign up for a FedEx Ship Manager account here.
Update the address through a UPS My Choice Account: Signing up for the account is free, and you can change the address anytime once it has been sent out. You can sign up for a UPS My Choice account here.
Send your package to the nearest holding location: Having the package held at a nearby location is a great option! You can select a hold at location from your account.
Feel free to reach out to us with any additional questions at [email protected]. We’re more than happy to help!

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
