Out-Of-State Shipping Policies

You must be 21 years of age to order or receive alcoholic beverages from The Savory Grape. Any shipments sent outside of Rhode Island containing alcoholic beverages are sent with an "Adult Signature Required" sticker, and the common carrier, FedEx, which ships our merchandise is required to ask and check for identification upon delivery. This means that you or someone 21 years of age or older must be present at the time of delivery. FedEx will not leave packages without an Adult Signature and proof of age.

The Savory Grape will not refund shipping fees if your package is returned to us because an adult was not present to sign for the package. Shipping to a business address is encouraged, where allowed by law.

FedEx Ground and FedEx Home delivery services are used for orders shipped outside of RI, and shipping charges are calculated based on these delivery service. (If you prefer to use FedEx Express, please call a Savory Grape team member at 401-886-9463.)

Estimated Delivery

Temperature Sensitivity. Because of wine's sensitivity to temperature variances, we may hold your wine at our shop in periods of extreme heat/cold. In these cases, we would notify you immediately of any delay in shipping. If you feel this may be a problem because of a time sensitive package, please contact us at 401-886-9463.

Receipt of Order. Once we receive your order, it will be packaged and shipped within 1-2 days. You’ll receive an email containing tracking data once your order is boxed and ready for shipping. Tracking numbers become active once they are scanned by the driver.
