A 1986 Pétrus Original Case: From a Full Cellar to a Daughter's Wedding Gift
An original wooden case of six 1986 Pétrus bottles carried a personal purpose for Uncle Cheng, a pseudonymous Hong Kong collector of more than 20 years. With his rented Wong Chuk Hang cellar full and his daughter marrying the following month, he planned to use the proceeds to bid on antique jewellery she had long admired. The source records into-neck fills, clear labels, intact-looking capsules and an agreed settlement, while this article keeps those as source observations—not proof of authenticity, perfect storage or an assured price.

An Armand Rousseau Cellar Move: Eight Burgundy Bottles Reviewed
In fine-wine collecting, a decision to sell often follows a change in daily life. This case follows Mr Chan, a 60-year-old veteran civil engineer in Hong Kong with nearly 20 years of collecting. After his children moved out, Mr Chan and his wife sold their Sai Kung house and moved to a smaller Kowloon Station flat that could not accommodate his room-sized cellar. He therefore released eight Domaine Armand Rousseau bottles. The parcel included 1990, 2005 and other vintages across Chambertin, Clos de Bèze, Clos des Ruchottes, Charmes-Chambertin and Clos Saint-Jacques. The article records the Armand Rousseau bottles and visible condition checks without treating them as proof of authenticity, storage history or value retention.
Dibao Wine Case: A Central Executive Parts with the Mouton 2000 Millennium Golden Ram
This case follows Mr Chan, a Central executive who, for health reasons, transferred five leading wines through Dibao Wine: Mouton Rothschild 2000 “Millennium Golden Ram”, Latour, Lafite and two further Mouton vintages. It records the condition checks and the private transaction process.
A Mid-Levels Lafite Case: Making Space for a Second Child
A Mid-Levels couple expecting their second child cleared space around a wine cabinet and sold a parcel of Château Lafite Rothschild. The source records an original case of 2008, loose bottles from 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2008, neck fills and clear labels. Lafite's official account places the 2008 red Chinese numeral eight as a shoulder embossing, not a red label. The owner's cling-film wrapping is recorded but not recommended as general storage advice.
A Six-Bottle Burgundy Handover: 2013 Domaine Leroy Chambertin and 2003 DRC Montrachet
This source follows Dr Chen, an experienced Hong Kong collector using a pseudonym, as he simplifies the management of rented cellars. The parcel contains 3 bottles of 2013 Domaine Leroy Chambertin Grand Cru and 3 bottles of 2003 DRC Montrachet Grand Cru. It records source-described condition checks and an agreed handover without promising equivalent terms, timing or value for another collection.
Making Room in a Collector's Cellar: 1973 Mouton and Screaming Eagle
Every private cellar reflects changing tastes. This source follows Mr Ma, a Hong Kong investment-banking executive, as he makes room for Burgundy by transferring a 1973 Château Mouton Rothschild and a Screaming Eagle whose vintage is not stated. It records the bottle observations and handover narrative while treating the importer sticker, condition description and transaction terms only as source evidence.
A Burgundy Collection Reallocated: 2013 Domaine Leroy Chambertin and 2006 DRC Échézeaux
This source follows a Hong Kong collector in finance who redirected part of his cellar into a new dining project: 3 bottles of 2013 Domaine Leroy Chambertin Grand Cru and 1 bottle of 2006 DRC Échézeaux. It compares the source's direct-sale rationale with an auction route and records the bottle details used in the review; it does not establish liquidity or a future return.
