Hong Kong Penfolds Grange Case: 1988, 2012 and a Classic Porsche
This case follows Mr. Lin, a 55-year-old Hong Kong financial adviser and classic-car enthusiast. He released several Penfolds Grange bottles, including a 1988 Grange Hermitage and a 2012 bottle in its original wooden case, to complete funding for a 1970s Porsche 911. The source records bottle, label, fill, capsule and packaging observations before an agreed bank-transfer handover; the outcome is not a general price or timing benchmark.

Dibao Wine Case: A DRC and Burgundy Collection Released for a Medical-Aid Charity
This case follows Dr. Chen, a 45-year-old consultant surgeon and Burgundy collector of more than ten years. To seed a Hong Kong charity supporting medical care for underprivileged children, he released selected DRC, Armand Rousseau, Domaine Leflaive and Champagne bottles. The source records a Mid-Levels inspection of labels, fills, capsules and provenance before an agreed handover; no general price or timing claim follows from the case.
Hong Kong Opus One Case: 2016 and 2018 Bottles from a Full Wine Cabinet
This case follows Mr. Chen, a 45-year-old corporate executive in Central. Business gifts had filled his temperature-controlled cabinet, so he released one Opus One 2016 and one 2018 rather than risk unsuitable room-temperature storage. The source records clear labels, high fills and intact capsules before an agreed cash handover. These observations apply only to the two inspected bottles and do not establish a general price or timetable.
Dibao Wine Case: Six 2000 Pétrus, Le Pin and Château Lafleur Bottles
This Pomerol case follows Mr. Chen, a 62-year-old semi-retired logistics-company founder and collector of more than 20 years. He released six bottles from 2000—two each of Pétrus, Le Pin and Château Lafleur—because the pressure of finding a “perfect” occasion kept him from opening them. The source records high fills, clean labels and intact capsules before an agreed handover; these are case-specific observations, not general price or condition benchmarks.
Two Generations of Burgundy: A Domaine Leroy and d'Auvenay Case
Every fine-wine bottle can carry a family memory. In this Kowloon Tong case, Mr Lam, a 35-year-old engineer, had inherited a temperature-controlled Burgundy cellar from his late father. Because he was severely allergic to alcohol and did not wish to maintain the cellar, he released three highlighted bottles: Domaine Leroy Aux Brûlées 2014 and two Domaine d'Auvenay Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru bottles whose vintages were to be checked from the physical items. The case records visible bottle evidence and an agreed handover without treating those observations as proof of authenticity, price or outcome.
Health First: Mr Yip's Three-Bottle Château Latour Case
Mr Yip, 58, a private-practice doctor in Happy Valley, decided to release three Château Latour bottles after a check-up showed severely elevated uric acid and early gout symptoms and his doctor told him to stop drinking. The parcel comprised 1996 (2 bottles) and 2009 (1 bottle), all 750ml. The source records a reported 13°C / 70% cellar, clean-looking labels, high fills and an agreed handover; these remain source observations rather than proof of storage history, authenticity or value.
A Mid-Levels Collector Releases DRC and Château Lafite Rothschild
After a medical check showed elevated uric acid and blood lipids, Mr Leung, 55, followed his doctor's advice to limit alcohol and released part of his Mid-Levels collection. The source lists DRC La Tâche 2019 and 2020, DRC Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru 2009, and Château Lafite Rothschild 2005, 2016 and 2018, all in 750ml format. Cling-film wrapping and visible condition are recorded as owner and reviewer observations, not proof of storage history, authenticity or price.
