Terms of Service

Last updated: June 6, 2026

Overview

Welcome to Monthly Sommelier USA. The terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Monthly Sommelier USA. Monthly Sommelier USA operates this store and website, including related information, content, features, tools, products, and services, to provide customers with an online shopping, gifting, order fulfillment, delivery, and customer support experience for wine gifts and related services. This website is powered by Shopify, which enables us to provide ecommerce services to you.

These Terms of Service, together with any policies referenced in them, describe your rights and responsibilities when you visit, access, browse, purchase from, or otherwise use this website and related services.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully. They include important information about your legal rights and responsibilities, including warranty disclaimers, limitations of liability, alcohol-related requirements, delivery limitations, and order policies.

By visiting, interacting with, placing an order through, or otherwise using this website, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service or our Privacy Policy, you should not use this website or purchase products through it.

Section 1 - Access and Account

By using this website, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction and legally permitted to use this website. Because Monthly Sommelier USA offers wine gifts and alcohol-related products where permitted, you also represent that you are legally permitted to purchase alcohol products in your jurisdiction.

To access certain features of this website or place an order, you may be asked to provide information such as your name, email address, billing information, payment information, delivery information, recipient information, and account information. You represent and warrant that all information you provide is accurate, current, complete, and that you have the rights and authority necessary to provide it.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us if you believe your account has been accessed or used without authorization.

Section 2 - Our Products

Monthly Sommelier USA offers wine gifts, curated wine gift selections, Build Your Own Wine Gift options, Monthly Sommelier Selections, Signature Wine Plans, Corporate Signature Plans, and related wine gifting services.

We make reasonable efforts to display and describe our products accurately. However, product images, colors, packaging, bottle appearance, labels, presentation, gift components, and other visual details may differ from how they appear on your screen due to device settings, photography, lighting, inventory, availability, production differences, or substitutions.

Product descriptions, images, prices, availability, contents, packaging, gift presentation, delivery eligibility, and promotional offers are subject to change at any time without notice.

Because wine availability can change, substitutions may be made when necessary. When substitutions are made, Monthly Sommelier USA aims to maintain the overall selection style, value, and intent of the gift using professional judgment and available inventory.

Section 3 - Wine, Alcohol, and Restricted Products

Some products sold through this website include wine or other alcohol-related items. Alcohol availability depends on recipient location, product availability, delivery rules, fulfillment requirements, and applicable laws.

By purchasing any product containing wine or alcohol, you represent that you are of legal drinking age and legally permitted to purchase alcohol in your jurisdiction. You also represent that the recipient is legally permitted to receive alcohol in the delivery location.

Alcohol deliveries may require adult signature, age verification, identification, or other delivery requirements. Delivery may be refused if the recipient is unavailable, unable to provide required verification, under the legal drinking age, intoxicated, or otherwise ineligible to receive the product under applicable rules.

Monthly Sommelier USA reserves the right to refuse, cancel, modify, or decline orders where alcohol delivery is unavailable, unlawful, restricted, or impractical based on product selection, recipient location, delivery method, or applicable requirements.

Section 4 - Orders

When you place an order, you are making an offer to purchase. Monthly Sommelier USA reserves the right to accept, decline, cancel, limit, or modify any order at its discretion, including where information is inaccurate, payment cannot be processed, delivery is unavailable, alcohol eligibility requirements are not met, product availability changes, or fraud prevention concerns arise.

Your order is not accepted until Monthly Sommelier USA confirms acceptance. We must receive and process payment before an order is accepted, prepared, fulfilled, or delivered.

Please review your order carefully before submitting it, including buyer information, recipient information, delivery address, delivery instructions, product selection, gift message, delivery date, and contact details. Monthly Sommelier USA may be unable to accommodate cancellation, correction, or change requests after an order is accepted or once preparation, fulfillment, customization, or delivery coordination has begun.

Section 5 - Recipient Information and Gift Messages

Monthly Sommelier USA is a gifting website, and buyers often provide information about recipients. By providing recipient information, you represent that you have the authority or permission to provide that information for the purpose of preparing, fulfilling, delivering, and supporting the order.

Recipient information may include the recipient’s name, delivery address, phone number, company name, building details, suite or unit number, delivery instructions, and other information needed to complete delivery.

If you include a personalized gift message, you are responsible for the content of that message. Gift messages must not include unlawful, abusive, defamatory, threatening, harassing, discriminatory, obscene, misleading, or otherwise inappropriate content. Monthly Sommelier USA may decline to include or may remove a message at its discretion.

Section 6 - Customized Products and Build Your Own Wine Gifts

Some products and services may include customization, including Build Your Own Wine Gift options, recipient preferences, wine direction, gift-message details, delivery instructions, corporate gifting details, and Signature Wine Plan preferences.

Customized orders may require additional review, preparation, fulfillment coordination, or availability checks. Once preparation, fulfillment, or delivery coordination has begun, customized orders may not be eligible for cancellation, changes, refunds, or substitutions requested by the customer, except where required by applicable law or approved by Monthly Sommelier USA.

Customer preferences are used to guide selection and preparation, but specific wines, vintages, labels, packaging, components, or delivery options are not guaranteed unless expressly confirmed by Monthly Sommelier USA in writing.

Section 7 - Signature Wine Plans

Signature Wine Plans are prepaid recurring wine gift experiences delivered over a defined duration, such as a 3-Month, 6-Month, or 12-Month plan, where offered. Signature Wine Plans are not open-ended subscription billing unless expressly stated otherwise at the time of purchase.

Plan availability, delivery timing, wine selection, and fulfillment may vary based on recipient location, product availability, legal requirements, delivery rules, and operational capacity. Monthly Sommelier USA may make reasonable substitutions while maintaining the overall selection style, value, and intent of the plan.

Because Signature Wine Plans involve scheduled fulfillment over time, changes to recipient information, delivery timing, or product preferences must be requested through customer support and may not always be available once a shipment, delivery, or fulfillment cycle has begun.

Section 8 - Prices, Promotions, and Billing

Prices, discounts, promotional offers, delivery fees, shipping fees, handling fees, and product availability are subject to change without notice. Unless expressly stated otherwise, posted prices do not include taxes, shipping, handling, delivery fees, alcohol-related fees, regulatory fees, customs, import charges, or other applicable charges.

You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate billing and payment information for all purchases. You authorize us and our payment processors to charge the payment method provided for the order total and any applicable taxes, fees, delivery charges, or other charges shown at checkout.

We reserve the right to correct pricing errors, promotional errors, product errors, or other inaccuracies and to cancel or modify orders affected by such errors, including after an order has been submitted.

Section 9 - Shipping and Delivery

Monthly Sommelier USA offers wine gift delivery to eligible locations in the United States, subject to product availability, recipient address, timing, delivery rules, alcohol restrictions, and applicable laws. Same-day delivery is available in eligible LA, NYC, and Northern Jersey locations where available.

Delivery dates, delivery windows, same-day availability, shipping times, transit times, and arrival estimates are estimates only and are not guaranteed unless expressly stated otherwise in writing by Monthly Sommelier USA.

Delivery eligibility is confirmed at checkout based on recipient address, product selection, order timing, and other applicable factors. Some products, plans, custom gifts, or alcohol-containing orders may not be available for all delivery locations.

We are not responsible for delivery delays, failed delivery attempts, or additional delivery issues caused by carriers, couriers, fulfillment providers, weather, traffic, building access issues, recipient unavailability, incorrect or incomplete delivery information, local restrictions, age-verification failure, force majeure events, or other circumstances outside our reasonable control.

Section 10 - Delivery Attempts, Recipient Availability, and Address Accuracy

You are responsible for providing accurate and complete delivery information, including recipient name, delivery address, phone number, company or building information, suite or unit number, access instructions, and any relevant delivery notes.

If delivery cannot be completed due to incorrect information, recipient unavailability, access restrictions, refusal of delivery, failed age verification, or other issues outside our control, additional charges, delays, cancellation, redelivery limitations, or product loss may occur.

Alcohol-related deliveries may not be left unattended where adult signature, age verification, or other delivery requirements apply. Delivery policies may vary by location, courier, fulfillment provider, and applicable law.

Section 11 - Perishable and Time-Sensitive Products

Some wine gift components, packaging, pairings, or related items may be perishable, fragile, temperature-sensitive, time-sensitive, or subject to handling limitations. Customers and recipients are responsible for receiving, opening, inspecting, and storing products appropriately after delivery.

Monthly Sommelier USA is not responsible for product issues caused by delayed opening, improper storage after delivery, recipient unavailability, weather exposure after delivery, incorrect delivery information, or failure to follow care, storage, or handling instructions where provided.

Section 12 - Substitutions and Availability

Wine availability, vintages, labels, packaging, gift components, pairing items, and presentation materials may vary. Substitutions may be made when necessary due to inventory, vintage changes, product availability, delivery location, timing, or supplier changes.

When substitutions are made, Monthly Sommelier USA aims to maintain the overall selection style, value, and intent of the gift. Substituted products may differ in brand, vintage, label, packaging, or presentation from product images or descriptions.

Section 13 - Returns, Refunds, Cancellations, and Order Changes

Return, refund, cancellation, and order-change eligibility may depend on product type, alcohol restrictions, customization, preparation status, fulfillment status, delivery status, and applicable law.

Because wine gifts may include alcohol, customized selections, perishable or time-sensitive components, and recipient-specific delivery coordination, not all orders are eligible for return, refund, cancellation, or change after acceptance, preparation, fulfillment, or delivery coordination has begun.

If you need help with an order, use the support widget or contact Monthly Sommelier USA as soon as possible. We will review requests in good faith, but approval is not guaranteed.
