Shipping, Returns & Quality Guarantee
Our Quality Promise
At Pelee Island Winery & Vineyards Inc., we stand behind every bottle we produce.
If your wine arrives damaged, appears faulty, or you believe there is a quality issue, please let us know. Our Customer Support team will review your request and do everything we can to make it right.
Because wine is a perishable food product and is regulated under provincial alcohol laws, we do not offer general returns or exchanges for change of mind.

Refunds, Credits & Replacements
Each request is reviewed individually.
Depending on the situation, we may provide one of the following:
• Refund

• Replacement Product (when applicable)
Replacement bottles are generally provided only when products are damaged during shipping or arrive broken.
Damaged Shipments
Although every order is packaged with great care, shipping damage can occasionally occur.
If your shipment arrives with broken bottles or damaged wine, please contact us immediately.
Please provide:

Once reviewed, we will arrange a replacement shipment whenever appropriate.
