Refund Policy
At Kahiwi Wines, we stand behind the quality of our products. If you receive a faulty item, we're here to make it right.
Faulty Products
If you believe a wine in your order is faulty, please contact us immediately. For wine-specific faults, the bottle must be returned to the winery with some of the remaining wine inside so we can properly assess the issue.
Upon confirmation of a fault, we will send you a replacement bottle at no additional cost. Please note that we offer replacements rather than monetary refunds for faulty products.
