Send Champagne and Gifts to London from Paris
Paris is only an hour ahead of London all year round, so there is no time difference to plan around — just the Channel. Shipping a bottle from France means a courier, a wait of several days and paperwork for the person receiving it. Ordering from us means it leaves our licensed dispatch unit in Battersea and reaches a London door typically in 30–45 minutes, 24 hours a day.

Questions from Paris
Why not just bring a bottle on the Eurostar?
You can, if you are travelling. Ordering from us means it arrives on the day you choose without you being there, gift-wrapped and with a message.
Will the recipient pay any duty or customs?
No. UK duty is already paid, and the order never crosses a border.
Who can accept the delivery?
Someone aged 18 or over. Under our
Challenge 25 policy, anyone who looks under 25 will be asked for photo ID.
Do you deliver outside London?
Yes, across mainland UK, with express (1–2 business days) and standard (3–5 business days) options shown at checkout.
