What happened to Wine Growers Direct?

WGD still very much exists and is at the core of The Wine Collective and we will continue you to offer the best wine deals in the market. This is simply a change of name with a new vastly improved offer including an updated rewards program for VIP customers.

What will happen to my loyalty points?

Any existing points will be migrated over to The Wine Collective and be redeemable for rewards and benefits. Customers will receive further email correspondence regarding your points status, however if you have any specific questions, please contact us at customers@thewinecollective.com.au

How do I create a new account and password for The Wine Collective?

All existing customers will have their account migrated over to The Wine Collective's new website. A one click email will be sent to reset your password on the new website, on March 18. Otherwise, simply enter your email address in the password recovery section of the website to activate your existing profile on our new site.

Will you still have a Taste Guarantee? 

Every wine listed for sale on The Wine Collective will still go through our rigorous selection process. Unless we are 100% satisfied with both the quality and value they offer, they don’t make the cut. Typically only about 5% of wines make it through.

While it’s very uncommon, should you ever not be totally satisfied with a wine purchased from The Wine Collective, then we are more than happy to provide a full refund and/or credit for your purchase.  

If you try one bottle and are not satisfied simply let us know within 90 days of purchase and we’ll refund you in full (excluding freight costs) for your purchase - no questions asked! If more than one bottle has been consumed from a purchase, our discretion will be used when determining if a refund will be provided.

Do you have a tasting panel?

Yes - our quality assurance process is the best in the industry. We take this very seriously and details will be published on the Wine Collective website

How much will shipping be?

Shipping will be charged at a flat rate $9.95 for Zone 1 customers and a flat rate $14.95 for Zone 2 customers with free delivery on orders over $300. Any customers who reside outside of Zone 1 and 2 are able to order as much as they want for the flat rate of $24.95.

We are also introducing a new loyalty model that will reward our best customers (Gold and Platinum) by giving them access to free standard metro freight. We will also offer Express shipping through our partner TNT and will add additional carriers over time. FDM will no longer be offered.

The $9.95 per case delivery rate is a promotional delivery rate that is not available to addresses within the following postcodes ranges:
0800 – 0999          
4000 - 4899
5200 – 5749

I currently receive a 10% seniors discount with Wine Growers Direct, will I still receive this with The Wine Collective?

Unfortunately we will no longer offer the 10% Seniors discount on site. However, you will have access to you a loyalty reward program to receive points that are redeemable for discounts and money can't buy experiences.

Will Afterpay still be available with The Wine Collective?

Absolutely! Afterpay will still be a payment option.

I have an account with both Wine Growers Direct and Cracka Wines. Will these be merged once The Wine Collective is launched, or will I still end up with separate accounts?
