Once the lottery begins, you can access available products from your SAQ Inspire newsletter, from My Bordeaux Futures section of your profile of from the calendar of events on SAQ.COM. You must enter for each product during the participation period.

Once the participation period is over, the computerized lottery process will randomly allocate products to participants. You will receive an email informing you is products were allocated to you or not.

If the lottery allocated you products for which you entered, you will have a limited time period to pre-order them and pay your 40% deposit. Please note that, at this stage, you can buy less bottles than the number initially indicated. However, your purchase is final. Bottles not purchased will no longer be reserved for you and will be released for the next sale.

If the lottery didn’t allocate you products for which you entered, you won’t be able to purchase products at this stage. The Bordeaux Futures lottery does not offer a second round. However, please note that all products unclaimed by other customers will be released and up for grabs in the “first come, first served” sale. You will receive an email to take advantage of these unclaimed products.

In general, products allocated by lottery are rare and sought-after products in high demand. In order to guarantee their accessibility to the greatest number of people, the SAQ reserves the right to establish bottle purchase limits. If the product is allocated to you, you will be able to buy the final quantity you chose, provided that you don’t go over the purchase limit.

You must pay the 40% deposit on products for which you entered the lottery, that were allocated to you and that you wish to purchase.

The computerized lottery on SAQ.COM is intended to randomly select participants who will be able to buy the products in question. It doesn’t draw the products as such.

You will have a limited amount of time to pre-order the products allocated to you. Please refer to the event sale conditions for exact dates and purchase period.

You are under no obligation to pre-order the products allocated to you via lottery. You will have a limited amount of time to complete your purchase following the draw. After the deadline, you will no longer be able to exercise your right to purchase these products and therefore the remaining allocation will not be billed to you.

Your purchase limit is the quantity you specified when you entered the draw.

For example, if you indicated five (5) bottles for product X, and this product is allocated to you, you can purchase five (5) bottles or less of product X. Your purchase is final: if you decide to buy three (3) bottles of product X instead of five (5), it will not be possible to purchase the remaining two (2) bottles allocated to you, unless they are released in the “first come, first served” sale featuring all unclaimed products.

If no products were allocated to you in the lottery, you cannot buy these products. However, if some participants choose not to pre-order the total quantity allocated to them during the lottery, these products will be released and up for grabs in the “first come, first served” sale. You will receive an email to take advantage of these unclaimed products. You can then pre-order them and pay 40% or your order upfront.

You must pay a 40% deposit on products selected in your pre-order. Please note: you will have a limited time period to pre-order your allocated products.

Your Bordeaux Futures will be delivered in two years. When they reach our warehouse, you will receive an email to pay your pre-order balance and choose the type of delivery: at home or in-store within the usual SAQ.COM delays.
