Questions about gifts and packaging

Can I add a gift card to my order?

We offer the service of adding a gift card to your order, at no additional cost. The cards are designed by a graphic designer, and you can choose from various designs of cards with different themes. Depending on the season, more designs will also be added (e.g. Christmas)

In your shopping cart, you first choose a card, and then you can enter a message that we will print on your card and add to your order.

Can I add a personal message to my gift?

Yes this is possible. When you are in the shopping cart on our website, you can leave a message for your gift and we will add it on a card in the package! This gift message will either be printed on a premium card. You can choose different type of card and we will print you text on the selected giftcard which will be added to the package.

Can I place an order as a gift?

Yes. 

You can have the order delivered as a gift to the address of your choice. Do you want a gift box? Please contact us or select the "Gift Wrapping" option in the shopping basket. Here you can also select a premium gift card and you can leave a text which we will add to the gift card. We always send the invoice digitally and we do NOT add it to the shipment. On the packing list, we are not mentioning prices.

It is important to mention that as of July 1, 2021, there is legislation that requires that when ordering alcohol delivery, it will only be delivered to someone aged 18 or older and they must be able to identify themselves. This also means that it is no longer possible to leave wines at a front door, and it is also important to mention if you choose a different delivery address (for example, for giving a gift) the recipient must be able to identify himself and be older than 18, so keep this in mind and perhaps inform the recipient about this in advance (you could forward the Track&Trace that you receive to the ultimate recipient and mention that a package is coming for which 18plus check is necessary). No unwillingness, but we can't do anything about this because we are also involved in this. Privacy rules do not have the email address of the person to whom you are sending the package.

Do you take care of gifts and Christmas gifts?

Yes — we can completely relieve you and take a lot of time off your hands!

All you have to do is determine what you want to send, and tell us to whom it should be sent; we will do the rest afterward.

You can read more about the possibilities here.

You can select your products on the website, but we are happy to advise you and of course, you can also visit us in Dordrecht, in person. In our Wine Warehouse, we have all the products that you can find on the website, and we have lots of sample packages for inspiration. You can also put together any products you want on our website. 

You can be assured of the fact that every product we offer is of high quality. We do not work with bulk/wholesale wines that are bought for a fraction and then processed at a very high price in the wine gift/Christmas packages.

We can also take all the work off your hands and send the packages for you. This saves you a lot of time and is often cheaper because, given our many shipments, we have competitive rates with various carriers.

Are you in the area? Then visit our beautiful Wine Warehouse, and we can put together something nice with you, or give us a call and we will be happy to help you.

How do you pack all these beautiful wines?

At Grandcruwijnen, we have special boxes made for our fine wines and distilled products. The cardboard boxes that you can see in the picture below are made of thicker material, and although they are more expensive than regular boxes, it is worth it! Our breakage/damage percentage is significantly lower than others, and we also use special layers inside to keep your wines safe wherever their destination may be. By using this, we prevent the wine from moving and bouncing around in the back of a truck. In addition, we would like to mention that we reuse all of our existing cardboard (wine boxes, leftover material from us, or companies in our area, etc.) and turn it into packaging mats by using a special shredder. It helps protect the wine and spirits, as well as being great for the environment. Perhaps also a consideration in the choice of your supplier.

Is there an invoice included in the gift?

No. 

We only add the packaging slip by default, which does not contain any prices. The gift message and gift sender is also clearly stated on the packaging slip. The invoice will be sent digitally to the sender, not the receiver unless other is specified. We do NOT add the invoice to the shipment.

We want to send a promotional gift. How does that work?

Business gifts - you select and we do the rest

We will gladly take care of your wine and business gifts — for every occasion and in every price range, nicely wrapped in a box with a bow, or in a sturdy box.

Tell us your wishes and we will make you an appropriate proposal. We are also happy to take care of the business market; your end-of-year gifts are neatly packaged, possibly with your personal message, and delivered to your contact.

We have put together a number of Christmas hampers, each with a class of wines.

Good wine does not always have to be expensive. We do not work with mass/wholesale wines that are bought for a fraction and then processed at a very high price in the wine packages for your gift/Christmas gift.

With Grandcruwijnen everything can be ordered per bottle, so you select the wine and we will take care of the rest.

De foto van de wijn wijkt af van de de wijn zoals wij ontvangen hebben. Hoe kan dat?

De informatie die wij melden op de website is maatgevend en de foto hoeft dat niet altijd te zijn alhoewel wij proberen zo actueel en goed als mogelijk de foto te tonen van een betreffende wijn. Redenen hiervoor zijn:

  • en primeur wijnen - hier hebben wij de flessen nog niet van. Soms kan dit wel 1-2 jaar duren
  • we ontvangen foto's van de producent maar de verpakking (label, wel/geen giftbox) blijkt toch anders te zijn
  • nieuwe jaargangen
  • wijn die in kisten zitten en we niet op voorhand al openmaken

Zodra wij de wijnen daadwerkelijk binnen hebben of een bestelling krijgen van een enkele fles uit een gesloten kist proberen we zo snel als mogelijk deze wijnen in onze eigen studio te fotograferen(stilstaand en 360 graden). Als een wijn in een geschenkendoos of kist zit dan vermelden wij dat altijd bij de specificatie en in de tekst dus deze is altijd leidend en niet de afbeelding.
