Returns & Cancellations
Wine is a delicate product. We do our best to ensure your wine arrives in excellent condition. We will replace or refund you for any bottle of wine that is corked. By law, we cannot accept returns of alcoholic beverages unless the product is corked. We are unable to accept the return of wine that was damaged due to adverse weather conditions during shipment, or wine that was ordered in error. Please send an email to orders@ghosthillcellars.com to arrange for the return of corked product.
Once we have received the wine returned, we will refund your credit card account for the cost of the wine less shipping and handling. If the original shipment is flawed or corked, you will receive a full refund, including shipping and handling charges. Please contact the tasting room at 503-883-3064 for return instructions.
A 15% restocking fee will be applied to all canceled orders.

Wine-Specific Conditions
Legal Requirements
You must be 21 years of age or older, to order or receive alcoholic beverages from Ghost Hill Cellars. Receipt of shipments containing alcoholic beverages requires the signature of a sober adult (a person 21 years of age or older who is not intoxicated). Wines purchased from Ghost Hill Cellars are not for resale, and are for personal consumption only.
Credit Card Charges
Orders are by credit card only. We accept Visa, MasterCard, and American Express.
Minimum Purchase
No minimum purchase is required.
States Authorized for Direct Shipment
Due to the ever-changing nature of wine shipping laws, we may be able to ship wines, directly or indirectly, to all states except Alabama, Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont and West Virginia.
Shipping Costs
Federal Express Ground is Ghost Hill Cellars’ carrier of choice. Ground shipping is provided by Federal Express Ground at current market rates. *Note – If the customer selects Fed Ex Air as his or her carrier, the customer pays all shipping charges, regardless of his or her wine club membership or purchase amount.
Wine is a Delicate Commodity
Wine is a perishable commodity. Wine does not like extremes of temperature: hot humid summer and cold winter weather may adversely affect the condition of your wine during shipment. Ghost Hill Cellars is not responsible for, and will not replace wine that is damaged by extreme weather conditions during shipment. When your wine order is picked up by the common carrier for delivery, responsibility for the wine becomes the responsibility of the purchaser.
