Storage & Shipping of Wines
AS NATURE INTENDED...
We’re often asked about our storage and shipping
of wines, to what is after all a desert country, as you
naturally want to be assured that you are getting the
wines in the condition the winemakers intended.
Wine is a precious and sensitive product. Our winery

partners work hard all year in the vineyards and
wineries around the world to make good wines
and that work can easily be spoilt by careless
transportation - saving on shipping costs doesn’t sit
well with us.
We’re happy to let you know that MMI ship all our
wines in refrigerated containers all year round and
insist that our freight partners sign up to such cool-
chain essentials. This is a considerable and significant
addition to normal freight costs but this commitment
to quality assurance combined with our own modern
temperature-controlled warehousing facilities gives
us the peace-of-mind that we’re meeting your
demands when it comes to wine quality.
