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.
Main factors in a Petrus valuation
- Documentation and packaging: Invoices, the original case and storage records can affect buyer confidence and the offer.
- Bottle format and quantity: Large formats and complete cases are often more sought after and may be valued more favourably.
- Storage environment: Long-term storage in a temperature-controlled professional cellar, with few moves, supports a clearer condition assessment.
- Physical condition: Fill level, capsule fit and label integrity are the first points reviewed in a valuation.
2017 Petrus valuation considerations
In 2017, spring frost affected parts of Bordeaux and quality was less consistent. Leading estates generally maintained their standards, while a Petrus offer depends particularly on the physical bottle and its provenance.
The final offer depends on the bottle's physical condition and provenance rather than the vintage alone. Clear photographs of the front label, back label, capsule and fill level, together with the original case and purchase records, support a more accurate valuation.
Before requesting a valuation, prepare the vintage, quantity and bottle photographs. We will provide an indicative assessment based on the physical bottle and current market demand. Handover can take place at the shop or by collection, with the process explained throughout. Published market prices are for reference only. WhatsApp / WeChat: 96737259.
