GBGet Out While You Can I first opened my Vinovest account in August of 2020 with ~$5,000 in deposits. About a month ago, I decided to add another $5,000 to my existing Vinovest account in order to expand my wine portfolio. Three weeks later, Vinovest moved the money out of my wine account and used it to buy Whiskey investments without my knowledge or consent. I had not made any investments in Whiskey prior to this and had no intention of doing so. I sent three messages to Vinovest customer support asking that this transaction be reversed but have not heard anything from the company in weeks. I am now trying to liquidate all assets I have with Vinovest and have discovered that there is no option on their site to sell the whiskey they purchased with my money. My wine portfolio has now been listed for sale but the estimated value of the wines (in my portfolio for the past 3.5 years) somehow mysteriously dropped within an hour of listing them for sale. It remains to be seen if I will ever get any money back from this company...And wouldn't you know it, Vinovest has no posted phone number to reach out to when multiple messages are ignored. If you haven't given your money to this predatory company yet, don't.

GBI have been with vineovest since past 3… I have been with vineovest since past 3 yrs. definitely this is shady and scam business. I m figuring out if is there a legal way that can be proceeded with this compnay as whatever they have advertised and practices they are carrying are shrewd and customer support sucks.

GBAwesome, but a little feedback The wine platform is excellent, though I think the filters could be improved — more collapsibility, similar to have wine.com allows you to filter by region, grape, vintage, etc. Also, knowing the full order must be fulfilled to ‘keep’ the bottles would be helpful. Whiskey, I wish there was some selection process in the American range. You just add money and a barrel is purchased. Maybe diversity in selection is not there yet (or that doesn’t suit your purchasing process) but I would love the ability to invest in Rye vs Corn, or different mash bills. Ultimately, happy to be able to invest in wine & spirits. The app is intuitive, easy to navigate, and concise. My comments above are very much driven by preference. Thank you!

GBGreat experience all around! I received an email with an offer to get started on investing in whiskey barrels. I made some deposits to start and wasn't sure what happens after that. Hunter responded to an email I sent and helped ensure everything went through and took time to respond to additional questions as well. He was clear and made sure I understood the process fully and helped my transactions go through. I look forward to seeing how these invenstments pay off.
