Every bottle sold through a retailer or a distributor gives away most of the margin and all of the customer. The cellar door and the website are the only two places you sell direct, and one of them is closed on Tuesdays. Most winery websites are a beautiful photograph of the vines with a shop bolted on that nobody has touched since the 2019 vintage.
A winery site should do three jobs: fill the cellar door, sell cases direct, and keep the club renewing. Most do none of them.
Indicative ranges from real wine briefs we've matched in the FindDevs network. Your three quotes will be specific.
A photo-led site that makes the drive out feel worth it, with real booking for tastings and a shop that handles your vintages properly.
Recurring allocations with member tiers, pause and skip, and a members area that actually knows what they have already had.
A proper wine shop: case discounts, mixed dozens, freight by state, and the compliance handled rather than ignored.
A separate login for the on-premise and retail accounts, with trade pricing, allocations and downloadable assets.

Selling alcohol online in Australia is not the same as selling t-shirts. Age verification, per-state freight, licence display and delivery restrictions all have to be right, and our network has built them before.
A wine club that renews is worth more than any single vintage. We match you to developers who have built recurring allocations, not just a subscribe button that charges the same card forever.
Vintages change, awards land, the cellar door closes for harvest. Every build hands you a CMS you can run yourself, because a website you have to email someone to change is a website that goes stale.
The wine industry attracts branding agencies with $30k minimums. You get three fixed quotes from Australian developers and you keep the code.
Send us a brief and we'll match you with developers experienced in your specific stack, not generic full-stack tourists.
In this industry the site is judged as a piece of design in its own right. These are the shapes a good one takes.
Illustrative designs, not client work. Your build uses your own photography, brand and content.
Names lightly anonymised. Outcomes from real engagements through the FindDevs network.
Moved club billing off spreadsheets and card-on-file emails. Renewals stopped leaking at the failed-payment step.
Mixed dozen builder and per-state freight replaced a flat rate that had been quietly losing money on every WA order.
Restaurant accounts self-serve their reorders and asset downloads instead of texting the rep on a Sunday.
"We were quoted $34,000 by a wine branding agency for what was essentially a Shopify site. FindDevs sent three Australian developers, the winning quote was under half that, and the club migration was the part they cared most about getting right."
We match Australian developers from every major city and remote-first teams nationwide. Pick your city, we've already got developers there.
