Thrilled about my first experience I recently made my first purchase and was very impressed with this site’s ease of use, excellent communications and support. The wines I bought are manufactured in Moldova, my homeland that I recently visited and got to try them there. Lupii by Gitana winery is a cashmere red blend with a 75% base of Cabernet and a delightful wine. I am so thrilled that this site made it available for purchase in the US, what a treat!

I have been using Vivino for years to… I have been using Vivino for years to just check ratings from users on wine but after basically being blind sided by the abrupt closure of Underground Cellar and their business practices I have turned to Vivino for my wine purchases from their vendors and have not been disappointed. Vivino keeps track of your orders and makes sure your orders ships or communicates if there is a delay. Don’t hesitate Vivino is for real, give them a try you won’t be disappointed.

Customer Service Fail Vivino had an order sent out immediately that I requested to be held for delivery until I returned from vacation. They expected me to accept delivery of the order that was sitting in a local UPS office for about 10 days. This was unacceptable to me and I instructed them to cancel my order and issue full refund. Nearly 5 days and several emails/phonecalls later, the issue remains unresolved. Vivino used to have topnotch customer service but really seems to have tailed off of late. UPDATE: issue has been resolved. Notice of refund emailed. Still, quality customer service at Vivino a major concern. Reaching reps who know what they are doing and addressing problems efficiently appears to be quite a rarity over there these days.

Waiting for my wine to be delivered Waiting for my wine to be delivered! Vivino are sending emails telling me the delivery company has tried to deliver but I’ve received nothing. I haven’t been given any information about the delivery company and when I contact Vivino the ‘help’ robot only has generic answers
