What happens to my points if I make a return?

When you return an item, you lose the associated credit you originally earned by buying the item in the first place.
Sound kind of confusing? Let's take an example: let's say you had previously spent $50 towards a 'spend $100, earn 500 points' promotion, and you decide to buy a $20 item, which bumps you up to $70. If you decide to return that item, your progress would also go back down to $50 – it's just like you hadn't bought the item in the first place.

How do I contact support if I have questions about my points?

Our team is ready and waiting to answer your questions about our rewards program! Just send us an email and we'll be in touch.

Description

ABOUT ‘Cortez’ comes from an organically farmed bush vine site planted in 1972. The vineyard is a special one, as it has been farmed organically since 2001 and every year, good or bad, it provides incredible tension in the wine. Craig attributes this to the high percentage of quartz/silica in the soil. As for the label, Craig and Carla change it up every year to best suit the feeling they think the wine is giving. The photo on the label was taken by their daughter, Camilla. It was a puzzle piece that was lying around the house on their leather table top. The name, ‘Cortez,’ is apparently named after the Dave Matthews & Neil Young song, ‘Cortez the Killer.’ “But they built up with their bare hands what we still can’t build today...” The grapes were hand harvested and whole bunch pressed before fermenting spontaneously in four 500L old French puncheons and one 1500L stainless steel tank. After 11 months on the gross lees, the wine was blended & bottled with a gentle filtration and sulfur addition. No fining. DATA Grapes: 100% Chenin Blanc Vineyard: Paardeberg Vine Age: 50-years-old Soil Type: Granite Viticulture: Practicing organic Fermentation: Native – old 500L French barrels (60%) and stainless steel (40%) (100% whole-bunch pressed) Aging: 11 months on gross lees in old French foudres and stainless steel Alcohol: 12% pH: 3.3 Total Acidity: 5.6 g/L Total SO2: 18 ppm Total Production: 417 cases UPC: 7070292744688 TASTING NOTE Fresh bread, honey, apricot, graham cracker, and a kick of citrus right up front. The palate has a stove-top popcorn meets cheese rind quality in the best way. It’s smooth but lively, with that citrus carrying through. Nice minerality and a long finish that doesn’t quit.
