Common FAQs

How many points do full wooden cases (OWC/OCB) add?

Original wooden cases are an important plus point for prestigious red wines, especially for sealed cases of 6 or 12 bottles. The resale value can be 15-30% higher than for individual bottles. The integrity of the wooden case (no damage, clear branding) will also be included in the evaluation.

Will a protruding cork or leakage in a 1996 Grands Echezeaux affect its resale value?

Yes. A drop in the fill level is most undesirable for red wine. A protruding cork usually indicates heat expansion or oxidation, directly affecting the storage condition and resale value. Minor leakage needs to be evaluated bottle by bottle, while severe leakage may lead to refusal of purchase.

Are temperature and storage key factors affecting the resale price?

Yes. The ideal storage for red wine is 12–15°C, 65–75% humidity, away from light, and without vibration. Long-term high-temperature storage will degrade the wine quality, commonly known as "cooked," which will significantly reduce the price. Conversely, a record of storage in a constant-temperature wine cabinet will add points.

Will you still buy wine if the label is damaged or has water stains?

Yes. Minor label stains, water marks, or cardboard creases are considered normal signs of aging and will not significantly reduce the price. However, if the label is completely torn or the vintage year is unclear, it will affect the difficulty of authentication and the valuation.
