Transferring your wines to Philglas & Swiggot

Customers are encouraged to consolidate their wines from other storage accounts to store with us in Bond. Firstly you will need to create an account on our website or ask us to assist you. Send the list of wines to be transferred including vintage, pack size, duty status (in-bond or duty paid), case type (OWC, OCC, RP) and quantity to finewine@philglas-swiggot.com. You must also send a copy of the original invoice relating to each wine purchase to be transferred, so we can verify the provenance.

Once received, we will confirm when the stock can be delivered to London City Bond. The delivery of stock is at the customers cost. There is no additional charge for accepting stock into a P&S storage account.
