Sell 1985 Petrus Red Wine

As a renowned Pomerol estate, Petrus is known for blue-clay parcels and a wine made almost entirely from Merlot. It has a rich, opulent style and silky texture; although Pomerol was not included in the 1855 classification, Petrus has substantial international collector demand.

Details considered in a Petrus valuation

• Storage conditions: Wine kept in a temperature-controlled cellar and moved infrequently is generally easier to assess with confidence.
• Bottle condition: Check the fill level, whether the cork has sunk, and any damage or mould affecting the capsule or label.
• Format: Magnum and larger formats, as well as full cases, may carry an additional premium.
• Provenance and packaging: Invoices, the original wooden case (OWC) and cellar records support provenance; an intact full case is preferable.
