Professional Appraisal: How to Ensure Your 2016 DRC Gets the Highest Resale Price?

The value of Romanée-Conti depends not only on the brand itself but also on its condition and provenance. Before evaluating your wine, please pay attention to the following key details:

1. Label and Anti-Counterfeiting Check:

   • The 2016 vintage labels are finely printed, with no ghosting.

   • Unique Serial Number: Each DRC bottle has a unique serial number, which is an important basis for verifying its origin.

   • Anti-Counterfeiting Technology: Labels incorporate specific anti-counterfeiting technology, which resellers will verify using UV light or a magnifying glass.

2. Ullage and Capsule:

   • For young wines of the 2016 vintage, the ullage should be very high (close to the cork).

   • The wax or metal capsule must be intact, with no signs of tampering, leakage, or mold.

3. Proof of Storage Environment:

   • Providing storage records from a temperature-controlled wine cellar or a professional bonded warehouse (such as Crown Wine Cellars) will significantly increase the likelihood of a high-price acquisition.
