First Offering Policies
Membership Enrollment
Your First Offering membership will be created the week that your enrollment is submitted. If required information is missing or incorrect, we will contact you for an update. Once enrolled, expect a welcome letter and an inaugural shipment of current release wines, if you elected to receive them. Going forward, new vintages of each wine you reserve will be shipped to you upon release. We send email notifications in advance of all release shipments; in the event that you are traveling, have moved, or have a new payment method, please notify us.
Placing a Membership on Hold
Your First Offering membership may be placed on hold, as needed, until a specific date for a maximum of six months. Once the holding period has concluded, your membership will be automatically be re-instated and shipments will resume in accordance with our annual release calendar.
Membership Modifications or Cancelations
Your First Offering membership may be modified or canceled without penalties at any time prior to a release billing or shipment. Should you cancel your membership after wines have shipped (but prior to delivery), you may incur return shipping fees. Wines that have been delivered to you may not be returned.
Billing Procedures
As a First Offering member, we will automatically bill you for the wines you have reserved on an ongoing basis, using the authorized credit card on file. Payment is collected approximately 5 business days prior to the release shipment for any specific wine release. On occasion, Darioush will postpone shipment dates to ensure optimal weather conditions during transit; we will always notify you of such delays. For your privacy, invoices are not enclosed within the wine packages, but can be made available to you via email upon request.
Shipping and Return Policies
Adult signatures are required for all wine deliveries. Alcoholic Beverages may be sold and delivered only to persons who are at least 21 years of age. We recommend shipping to a business address to guarantee prompt delivery. Undeliverable shipments may be reshipped at the expense of the member, or the wine will be returned for a refund less applicable shipping and handling charges.
