FAQS REGARDING THIS SITE

WELCOME TO OUR NEW WEBSITE!

The new website will enable us to update, inform and advise much faster, and we'll be able to add a lot of new features as we think of them. We are aware that some teething issues might crop up in the early days, we may have included a Garnacha in the Tempranillo section – but bear with us – we'll get it fixed ASAP.

We hope you'll be a pleased with our site as we are. You'll find new things everyday – so make sure you come back and peruse at every opportunity. The best way to find your way around Regionalwines.co.nz is to take a big step and not stop walking. We're sure you'll find that Whisky, Beer or Alsatian Pinot Gris you've been looking for.

Do I need to re-sign up?
No – if you've used Regionalwines.co.nz before, your user details have been copied over to the new site. We are having some issues that will mean account holders can't log in as they'd like. This will be fixed soon.

What is your refund and returns policy?
Regional Wines stands behind every wine, beer or spirit we sell – if we didn't think it was good enough we wouldn't sell it.

If your delivery is broken or damaged we will refund or resend the order, but we do need to be notified within 48 hours of the order being recieved (not our rules). If the wine is corked – of course we'll replace, refund or exchange the wine.

If you purchase a wine and it's not to your taste, then we are only too happy to exchange the remaining bottles for another wine/beer.

Regionals is committed to supplying the very best in wine beer and spirits. If you have any concerns please don't hesitate to contact us.

Can I send someone a gift?
Whether the occasion is an anniversary, birthday, celebration or just because you can, nothing says it quite the way wine does. A bottle (or two) of decent wine, a flavoursome whisky or a gift pack of beer means that you actually had a crack at sending something you know they’ll love. If you're completely stumped feel free to ask our advice....or send a gift voucher.

How can I send a gift? 


We are able to send almost any bottle or case of wine, beer, whisky or spirit or whatever takes your fancy to anywhere in New Zealand with a message from you inside the box. Check out our gift suggestions on the GIFTS page or choose your own and we’ll pick, pack and deliver on your behalf.

What if no one is home when my purchase is delivered?

If the delivery point is unattended, we won't leave the product – it'll be returned to Regional Wines or the local depot as we require each delivery to be signed for. You can arrange to have the product picked up in-store, or delivered to another appropriate place where someone can sign for it.

What if my daughter signs for it, she's only 16?
Regional Wines cannot, or will not deliver, or release goods to people under the age of 18. ID may be required - a valid NZ Drivers Licence, valid Passport or the HANZ 18+ card.

We envisaged Regional's new website to be a hub for information, and advice on the world of drinks and liquor. To that end, anyone can use the our website. Please be aware you need to be 18 to purchase liquor on Regional's website – you'll be breaking the law if you are under 18 and purcase liquor.
