Four Key Appraisal Indicators Affecting Buyback Price

To ensure your cherished collection receives the highest offer, our appraisal experts will evaluate the following details:

  1. Fill Level:

    For a 1991 vintage wine, a fill level maintained at the neck (High Fill) or above the shoulder (Top Shoulder) is considered excellent condition and commands the highest buyback price.

  2. Label & Capsule:

    Whether the label shows dampness, mold, tears, or wine stains, and if the metallic capsule shows corrosion or signs of tampering. An intact original capsule is crucial for authenticating the wine.

  3. Clarity:

    Observe if the wine is excessively cloudy or has abnormal color changes, which reflects the temperature and humidity control of the storage environment.

  4. Original Wooden Case (OWC):

    Possessing the original wooden case or the original purchase receipt will significantly increase market value and offer a buyback premium.

Common FAQs

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

Original wooden cases are an important bonus 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 affect the resale of a 1991 Grands Echezeaux?

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

I have several bottles of red wine from different wineries. Can I get a joint valuation?

Yes. We accept mixed deliveries, with each bottle individually assessed and quoted. We accept a minimum of one bottle, and any number of bottles is welcome.

Do damaged capsules or torn foil significantly affect the value?

Slight damage has limited impact; the main factor is the condition of the wine inside the bottle. The foil is the first barrier protecting the cork, and it's recommended to keep it intact. If the capsule is completely detached and the cork is visible, the price will be reduced by approximately 5-10%.
