VINUM PETRI sàrl: Terms and Conditions of Sale
1. Application of the terms and conditions of sale
In the absence of a special provision in these terms and conditions and written agreements between the parties, orders will automatically be subject to these terms and conditions of sale, irrespective of the provisions that may appear in the purchaser's documents. These terms and conditions shall apply in particular to the sale of Vinum Petri sàrl's products online. They shall be provided to the purchaser automatically on the home page of the Vinum Petri sàrl website. Purchasers only need click "Terms and Conditions of Sale" to see the terms and conditions for their order, before even starting the ordering process. Consequently, the fact of placing an order implies the purchaser's full and unconditional acceptance of these terms and conditions of sale, with the exclusion of any other documents such as sales literature or catalogues published by the seller and for information purposes only. The fact that the seller does not rely upon any one of these terms and conditions at any given time may not be construed as a waiver of its right to rely upon any one of these terms and conditions at a later date. All our offers are subject to available stocks. In view of the rare or speculative character of particular products, restrictions may apply to the quantities available. Vinum Petri sàrl therefore reserves the right to refuse an order under the afore-mentioned circumstances.
First of all customers make a request to order the desired products and confirm this with a click. Availability is confirmed by return email. If the wine ordered is out of stock, Vinum Petri sàrl will notify the customer as soon as possible. Upon approval by the customer, Vinum Petri sàrl may amend the order, for example with the next vintage year or an equivalent wine. Once the order has been specified, an invoice will be issued by Vinum Petri sàrl and sent to the customer by email.
The client will then be invited to return to the Vinum Petri sàrl website in order to make payment.
Payment for goods and/or the service purchased from Vinum Petri sàrl is due in full when placing the final order.
Payments shall be made by secure online payment or by bank transfer.
The order will be made up once Vinum Petri sàrl has received payment.
Delivery of the good(s) ordered will be made to the purchaser's address or to an address given when placing the order, to be calculated from the time the purchase order and payment are received (except in the case of force majeure). The delivery time for each product according to the destination is given on the website. Delivery time for products already ordered is reiterated in the order confirmation received by email. If the customer has ordered several products, where the delivery times are different, it is the longest delivery time that shall be applied to the entire order. This delivery time is specified as precisely as possible, but it may differ depending on Vinum Petri sàrl's options for supply and transport and on weather conditions. Failures to observe the delivery deadline shall not lead to claims for damages, to withholding of payments, nor to cancellation of orders in progress. In any event, timely delivery is only possible if the customer has given the seller exact details of the recipient's address. In case of mistakes, Vinum Petri sàrl shall not be held liable for the inability to deliver the merchandise at the requested time and place. Upon receipt of the merchandise, it behoves the recipient to check the condition of the merchandise upon receipt and to make any observations necessary in the case of breakage, damage or missing goods by noting their reservations on the delivery note, and within three (3) days following receipt of the merchandise send it by recorded delivery with signature upon receipt to the seller, with a copy to the shipper for their information.
Delivery costs are given on the website depending on the destination. These prices include insurance coverage up to 500 euro per parcel. This insurance covers compensation in case of loss, theft or breakage. All other risks, such as for instance damage to labels during transport, a corked flavour, weakness in old corks during transport etc. are the purchaser's risk. For parcels with a value exceeding 500 euro, it is possible, when placing the order and for an additional payment at the purchaser's expense, to take out a special insurance policy covering higher values. The amount for this additional insurance will be specified when the order is placed.

Vinum Petri shall ascertain, to the best of their knowledge and ability, the origin, conditions of storage and traceability of their products.
