Returns and Refunds Policy
General
Featherstone Estate Winery will accept return of wine that is defective – i.e. corked, undergoing a secondary ferment, or containing foreign material (with the exception of sediment or tartaric crystals, which are naturally occurring and not acceptable as reason for return). Bottles must be at least ¾ full (we do not accept return of empty bottles for refund). It is our policy to replace any defective bottle with the same wine. In the event that the wine in question is no longer available, Featherstone will replace with a similar vintage.
Online Shopping
Please note that Featherstone ships wine using Canada Post’s “Proof of Age Required” feature. Recipients must be of legal age to purchase alcohol in their province. Featherstone only ships within the province of Ontario and not out of country.
Featherstone is not responsible for deliveries damaged from shipping, incomplete or inaccurate delivery addresses, or recipients not being at the delivery address to receive delivery. In the event that an online customer receives a defective bottle (see above for definition of defective) in an online shipment, the bottle must be returned (at least ¾ full) to the winery for replacement. Featherstone will assume the cost of shipping a replacement bottle to the customer.
