Selling wine online is part store, part advice. Here is what a small wine shop or winery needs on its WooCommerce site.
1. An age check
A clean age verification at the entrance, with a responsible drinking notice.
2. Product pages that advise
- Grape, region, vintage and taste notes.
- Food pairings and serving temperature.
- A photo of the bottle and the label.
3. Shipping that reassures
Safe packaging, delivery times and costs by number of bottles, and local pickup for nearby customers.
4. Sell by six
Mixed cases and quantity discounts fit how people buy wine.
5. Gifts
Gift boxes, messages and gift cards for the holidays.
6. Bring customers back
New vintages by email, and a reorder in a few clicks.
Agely handles the age check. See it on the demo.
