How it works

1

Purchase at the In Bond price

You pay only the wine's value — no UK Duty, no VAT. This is the price you see on our In Bond listings.

2

Wine stored under bond

Your wine is held at London City Bond or Tilbury Freeport in your name, under optimal ageing conditions. Storage is charged annually at £15 + VAT per case per year.

3

Choose your moment

When you're ready, you have three options: take delivery (Duty + VAT then apply), sell in bond to another buyer, or continue to hold.

4

Delivery on your terms

Request delivery at any time. We arrange White Glove delivery with full insurance across the UK and Europe.
