Dibao Wine Case: Mr. Lee Releases Lafite 2011 and Opus One 2000 for Health

1. A Message from Central

On the previous Tuesday afternoon, while light rain fell in Hong Kong, Mr. Lee in Central sent photographs through WhatsApp and asked whether an on-site review might be available.

Seller and Reason

• Seller: Mr. Lee, 55, corporate executive
• Location: Central, Hong Kong
• Reason: Mr. Lee often attended business dinners and drank at home. At an annual examination the previous month, his doctor found concerning blood-pressure and liver readings and told him to stop drinking immediately. He decided to release the contents of his cabinet to avoid temptation. This is the source’s account of one patient’s medical advice, not general health guidance.

2. On-Site Bottle Review

At the agreed time, the source says the team visited Mr. Lee’s home and viewed the temperature-controlled electronic wine cabinet.

The source quotes Mr. Lee as saying that he had accumulated the bottles over several years and now preferred to transfer them to knowledgeable owners. This is his attributed opinion.

The source describes the cabinet as temperature- and humidity-controlled and the bottles as well presented. The two highlighted wines were Château Lafite Rothschild 2011 and Opus One 2000. A cabinet observation does not prove the full storage history or internal condition.

The source records inspection of capsules, cork presentation, ullage and labels and says photographs were retained as a case record.

3. Bottle Information

The source calls the bottles original and exceptionally presented after inspection. Those are case claims; visual checks do not establish authenticity or internal wine quality.

The source says the parties discussed current references, agreed a quote and completed payment by bank transfer. No amount, comparable set or universal timing is disclosed.

4. Frequently Asked Questions

The following answers describe a cautious review process:

Q1: What factors may affect a quote?

Consider four broad areas:

1. Wine and Vintage: source ratings and dated supply-and-demand evidence.
2. Visible Condition: ullage and any sign of seepage.
3. Presentation: label damage or mould and capsule integrity.
4. Provenance and Storage Evidence: verified records from a wine cabinet, cellar, merchant or warehouse.

Q2: Can one or two fine-wine bottles be considered?

Possibly. A single bottle or full cellar may be reviewed if it falls within current scope. Acceptance and any quote depend on identity, condition, provenance and demand.

Q3: Can a bottle with light label damage or staining be considered?

Possibly. Presentation defects can affect a quote. Review fill, capsule, seepage, label, glass, provenance and other identity features together; an apparently sound fill level does not establish authenticity or internal quality.

Q4: How should payment and handover security be handled?

Before releasing bottles, confirm both parties’ identity, location, privacy handling, inspection scope, cleared funds, payment account and handover sequence. Cash, FPS or bank transfer may be discussed; no method removes all risk.

5. Contact

Owners of selected fine wine can send an exact bottle list for review. Any quote, privacy terms, inspection, payment and handover remain collection-specific.

Whether the reason is health or space, a careful review should preserve each bottle’s identity and evidence.
