How does buying wines from Aroma of Wine work?
Aroma of Wine offers our customers and clients unparalleled access to the world's finest wines. Some wines are available for immediate delivery from our stock and private reserves, while others can be sourced through our ever-expanding global network of producers and merchants. When you select products on our website, you're requesting that we source and supply them for you. As soon as you make an enquiry or place an order, we'll send a confirmation email with your reference number. We'll then be in touch as soon as possible to let you know when you can expect your ordered items.
Do you have a retail store?
In Singapore, our premises include an office at ARK@Gambas and our storage warehouse in the Singapore Wine Vault. Although we do not currently have a retail space, we offer Next-Day Delivery on all immediately available wines for orders placed before noon.
What is the difference between Marketplace and Immediately Available wines?
Marketplace:
The majority of our listings are available through our global network of producers and merchants, with a delivery time of 6-12 weeks. We endeavour to get as close to the source as possible, always aiming to purchase wines directly from the producer or trusted suppliers. We collaborate with suppliers around the world, giving us unrivalled access to a vast range of products: we have over 50,000 unique listings at any given time.
Immediately Available:
We also list many wines that are available for immediate delivery, held within Aroma of Wine's own stockholdings or sourced through our private reserve network. We can arrange for the wine to be delivered as soon as payment is received.
Why is there a lead time on Marketplace wines?
Marketplace wines are sourced from a wide range of suppliers around the world. We combine deliveries, and process the wines carefully to avoid damage; they are inspected upon arrival. This process can take between 6-12 weeks. However, please note that the delivery time may be significantly faster in most cases, depending on the wines' current location.Airfreight is available upon request; please speak to your Account Manager (they can advise on additional details).
Do you have a minimum order value?
Our minimum order value is £250 (GBP). Orders below this amount may incur an additional delivery charge at our discretion.
