Common FAQs

I have several red wines from different wineries. Can I get a joint valuation?

Yes, you can. We accept mixed deliveries, and each bottle is individually appraised and quoted. We accept a minimum of one bottle, and any number of bottles are welcome.

If a Château Haut Brion 2013 has a protruding cork and leakage, will it affect the resale value?

Yes, it will. A drop in liquid level is the most critical issue for red wine. A protruding cork usually indicates heat expansion or oxidation, which directly impacts the storage condition and resale price. Minor leakage needs to be assessed bottle by bottle, while severe leakage may lead to rejection.

How much extra value does a complete wooden case (OWC/OCB) add?

An original wooden case is a significant bonus for prestigious red wines, especially for sealed cases of 6 or 12 bottles. The resale price 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.

Are temperature and storage key factors affecting the resale price?

Yes. The ideal storage conditions for red wine are 12–15°C, 65–75% humidity, in a dark, vibration-free environment. Long-term high-temperature storage can degrade the wine quality, commonly known as "cooked wine," which will significantly lower the price. On the other hand, records from a temperature-controlled wine cabinet will add value.

How can I get a free valuation from Grand Concord Trading?
