Terms of Use

Last updated: November 4, 2026

These terms apply to your use of docentewines.com and to any purchase or club membership made through it. By using the site you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Age requirement

You must be of legal drinking age to use this site and to buy wine: 21 or older in the United States, and the legal age in your country elsewhere. By entering the site or placing an order, you confirm that you meet this requirement. Wine is sold for personal use only, not for resale.

Orders and payment

All orders are subject to acceptance and availability. We may refuse or cancel any order, including if we cannot verify your age or ship to your address.
Prices are shown in the currency of your store (US or EU) and may change without notice. Applicable taxes and shipping are shown at checkout.
Payment is processed securely by our payment provider. Your card is charged when your order is placed.

Shipping and delivery

We ship only to locations where the law allows us to. Availability depends on your state or country.
An adult of legal drinking age with valid ID must sign for every delivery. Packages cannot be left unattended.
If a delivery cannot be completed because no eligible adult is available, additional shipping fees may apply.
Delivery times are estimates. We may hold shipments during extreme heat or cold to protect the wine.

Returns and damaged items

Because wine is a regulated product, all sales are final. If your order arrives damaged, or a bottle is faulty, please contact us promptly with your order number and a photo, and we will make it right with a replacement or refund.

Docente Vineyard Society

Club membership is open only to residents of the states listed on the club page.
By joining, you authorize us to charge your saved payment method for each club shipment, plus taxes and shipping, until you cancel.
You can cancel at any time by emailing info@docentewines.com. Please cancel before a shipment is processed to avoid that charge.
Club benefits, pricing and shipment schedules may change. We will tell members in advance of any change.

Please use the site lawfully. Do not attempt to disrupt it, access it without permission, or copy its content for commercial use. All text, images, logos and designs on this site belong to Docente Wines or its licensors and may not be used without written permission.

Product information

We do our best to describe and picture our wines accurately. Vintages, labels and availability may change, and colors may look different on your screen.

Responsible drinking

Please enjoy our wines responsibly. Never drink and drive. If you are pregnant, consult your doctor before drinking alcohol.

Limitation of liability

The site is provided “as is.” To the extent the law allows, Docente Wines is not liable for indirect or consequential losses arising from your use of the site. Nothing in these terms limits any rights you have under consumer protection law.
