Four key factors affecting the buyback price of Lafite wine

Many customers inquiring about the buyback of fine wines often ask how the price is determined. Besides the inherent characteristics of the vintage itself, the following factors directly determine the impact of the wine's storage condition on the buyback price :

• Ullage: The height of the wine in the bottle is an important indicator of the degree of oxidation. The higher the ulage (such as near the bottom neck or into neck), the better the preservation, and the higher the buyback price.
• Label Condition: An intact, undamaged label without serious stains greatly enhances the collectible value of a bottle of Lafite. Minor cellar dust is acceptable, but severe damage will negatively impact the valuation.
• Capsule & Cork: Whether the capsule is intact and uncut, and whether the cork is slightly bulging or leaking (See page), directly relates to the safety and authenticity of the wine.
• Provenance & Storage: Providing proof of storage in a professional wine cabinet or cellar (HKQAA certification preferred) greatly increases buyer confidence, thereby obtaining a more favorable price for high-end wine buyback .
