UNITED KINGDOM TO HONG KONG
The Process
All wines will be shipped by air after Buyers pay in full. They will be collected from temperature-controlled cellars of WWX sellers. Wines will be carefully handled and loaded onto direct, non-stop flights from London to Hong Kong, after which they will be delivered directly to WWX temperature-controlled warehouse. Wines will be dispatched by air-conditioned trucks to WWX buyers’ HK delivery address according to our local delivery schedule. The whole process will take approximately 8 to 12 weeks from the point of Buyer’s full payment. The team is striving to reduce the whole process to a 4 to 8 week timeframe in due course – subject to COVID-related delay improvements and freight frequency.
