Sell 2017 Château Lafite Rothschild

Château Lafite Rothschild is based in Pauillac and is an 1855 First Growth, with a Cabernet Sauvignon-led blend. Its style emphasises balance and finesse, developing further layers with age, while the estate name supports longstanding collector interest in Hong Kong, Macau and international markets.

Main factors in a Château Lafite Rothschild valuation

• Bottle condition: For older vintages, the fill level, any sunken cork, and the integrity of the capsule and label are especially important.
• Storage conditions: Long-term temperature-controlled cellar storage with few moves supports a clearer assessment of the bottle's condition.
• Bottle format and quantity: Large formats and complete cases often attract stronger market interest and may support a higher valuation.
• Provenance: Purchase invoices, the original wooden case, and cellar or merchant records all strengthen the provenance file.

2017 Château Lafite Rothschild valuation considerations

Spring frost affected the 2017 vintage, resulting in more variable yields and quality. Château Lafite Rothschild nevertheless maintained its standard, while the valuation remains subject to the physical bottle.

More specifically, the valuation depends on the physical condition and provenance rather than the vintage alone. Clear photographs of the front and back labels, capsule and fill level, together with the original case and purchase records, support a more accurate valuation.

For an initial valuation, provide the vintage, quantity and photographs of the front and back labels, capsule and fill level. Dibao Wine will review condition, provenance and current demand before indicating a valuation. Once agreed, handover can take place at our shop or by collection across Hong Kong and Macau. Every final offer is subject to physical inspection. WhatsApp / WeChat: 96737259.
