If the Product is not delivered to the customer on the agreed delivery date or within this period of thirty (30) days and this delay is not due to the customer, the customer will be entitled to notify the Site of the suspension of payment of all or part of the price until the Site executes or resolves the contract by following this procedure :

• - as a first step, the customer must send to the Site by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt or by another writing on a durable medium a formal notice to deliver the Product within a reasonable additional period.
• - secondly, if the Site has not delivered the Product within this additional period, the customer may inform the Site, in the same way, that he terminates the sales contract.

The sale's contract will only be resolved upon receipt of this letter or writing informing the Site of this resolution, provided that the delivery has not occurred between the sending of the customer's mail and its receipt.

10.3. Complaints

The customer must open the package in front of the carrier to check the condition of the Products. Any anomaly concerning the delivery (damaged delivery error, missing product compared to the delivery note, broken products, etc.) must be indicated on the delivery note in the form of “handwritten reserves”, accompanied by the customer's signature.

Article 11. Legal guarantees

11.1 Reminder of legal provisions

The customer has a period of two years from the delivery of the goods to obtain the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity in the event of the appearance of a lack of conformity. During this period, the customer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity and not the date of its appearance.

During this period, the customer is only required to establish the existence of the lack of conformity affecting the digital content or digital service and not the date of its appearance.

The legal guarantee of conformity entails an obligation for the seller, if applicable, to provide all the updates necessary to maintain the conformity of the property. The legal guarantee of conformity gives the customer the right to repair or replace the goods within thirty days of his request, at no cost and without major inconvenience to him.

If the product is repaired under the legal guarantee of conformity, the customer will benefit of a six-month extension of the initial guarantee.

If the customer requests the repair of the product, but the seller imposes its replacement, the legal guarantee of conformity is renewed for a period of two years as of the date of replacement of the product.

The customer may obtain a reduction in the purchase price by retaining the property or terminate the contract by being refunded in full against its return, if :

1. The seller refuses to repair or replace the product;

2. The repair or replacement of the product occurs after a thirty-day period;

3. The repair or replacement of the good causes a major inconvenience to the customer, when the customer bears definitively the costs of recovery or removal of the non-conforming product, or if he bears the costs of installation of the repaired product or replacement;

4. The non-conformity of the product persists despite the attempt to bring the seller to conform has remained unsuccessful.

The customer is also entitled to a reduction in the price of the product or to the termination of the contract when the lack of conformity is so serious that it justifies that the price reduction or the termination of the contract becomes immediate.

The customer is then not obliged to request repair or replacement of the property beforehand.

The customer is not entitled to the resolution of the sale if the lack of conformity is minor. Any period of immobilization of the product with a view to its repair or replacement suspends the guarantee that remained to run until the delivery of the restored property.

The rights mentioned above result from the application of Articles L. 217-1 to L. 217-32 of the Consumer Code. The seller who obstructs in bad faith the implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity is liable to a civil fine of up to 300,000 euros, which may be increased up to 10% of the average annual turnover (Article L. 241-5 of the Consumer Code).

The customer also benefits from the legal guarantee of hidden defects pursuant to Articles 1641 to 1649 of the Civil Code, for a period of two years from the discovery of the defect. This guarantee gives the right to a price reduction if the product is retained or to a full refund against the return of the of the product.

11.2 Conditions for the implementation of the legal guarantee

The implementation of the legal guarantee of conformity of the Site must be made to the following address : contact@worldgrandcrus.com

The Products concerned must be returned to the Site, intact, in its entirety and packaged to ensure their protection for the transport duration, by Tracked Colissimo, to the following address :

WORLD GRANDS CRUS, 67 Cours Mirabeau, 13100 Aix-en-Provence

Or, in certain very specific cases, in the store closest to his home (see list on the Site).

The customer must inform the Site of any return by sending an email in advance to the Site Customer Service at the following address : contact@worldgrandcrus.com

The shipping costs are borne by the Site unless the e customer claim proves to be unfounded.

In accordance with the provisions of Article L. 217-7 of the Consumer Code, "The seller may attack this presumption if it is not compatible with the nature of the goods, or the lack of conformity invoked".

The Site alerts the customer to the characteristics of the Products sold and the fact that certain Products are subject to a Consumption Deadline or a Date of Minimum Durability. The Site cannot guarantee the quality of the Products beyond these dates. Likewise, the customer is informed that since wine is a living material, the quality of certain Products may deteriorate over time, without this constituting a lack of conformity.

If the wine is obviously corked, the customer is invited to return the bottle concerned, in its original packaging, filled at least ¾ of its level, within a maximum period of 1 month after the order, specifying the invoice number, at the address 67 Cours Mirabeau, 13100 Aix-en-Provence. After analysis of the product, if the Site finds the actual deterioration of the bottle, an identical reference will be sent to the customer as soon as possible and the return costs incurred will be fully refunded to the customer. If the reference is no longer available, a reference of equivalent nature and value will be offered to the customer and then dispatched. If the customer refuses the reference thus proposed, the cancellation and refund procedures are identical to those provided for in Article 5.

The customer is informed that the quality of certain Products (such as for example wine) depends on the storage conditions of the Products (temperature, brightness, humidity, distancing of noxious or toxic substances). Thus, the quality of the Product depends on its storage conditions beyond a period of two months, the Customer must provide proof that the lack of conformity is prior to the sale.

In addition, no returns will be accepted for subjective reasons of non-conformity (taste).

12.2. The customer is informed that for technical reasons (colour difference related to the quality of the computer and/or printer, size difference due to a visual effect related to the photo…) differences may exist between the photos of the Products appearing on the Site and the Products themselves (colour, size…). The customer is invited to refer to the description of each product to learn about its specific features.

12.3. Hyperlinks may link to sites other than the Site itself. The Site disclaims all liability if the content of these sites contravenes the legal and regulatory provisions in force.

Article 13 : Force Majeure

Neither party will have breached its contractual obligations, insofar as their fulfilment is delayed, hindered, or prevented by an uncontrollable event or force majeure.

Will be considered as force majeure all facts or irresistible circumstances, external to the parties, unpredictable, unavoidable, beyond the control of the parties and which cannot be prevented by the latter, despite all reasonably possible effort. The party affected by such circumstances will notify the other within ten working days from the date on which it becomes aware of them.

Performance of the obligation(s) shall be suspended for the duration of the force majeure if this is temporary and does not exceed a period of ten days. However, upon the end of the cause for the suspension of their reciprocal obligations, the Parties must make every effort to resume the normal execution of their contractual obligations as quickly as possible.

For that purpose, the Party prevented by the force majeure will notify the other of the resumption of its obligation by registered letter, with a request for acknowledgement of receipt or any extrajudicial act. If the impediment is definitive or exceeds a period of 30 days, the sales contract may be terminated by either party.
