Sell your Champagne.
Dom Perignon, Louis Roederer Cristal, Krug and the Dom Perignon Rose are the prestige Champagnes collectors put away for years. We buy them by the bottle or by the case.

How we price Champagne
Champagne is priced by vintage, or by edition for Krug Grande Cuvee. The foil, the label and how cool the bottle stayed come next.
Heat is the enemy. Tell us where it has been kept, and send one upright photo.
How selling wine works
Tell us what you have
List each wine with its vintage, size and fill level, and add a photo of the bottle upright at eye level.
Get a firm offer
We price every bottle and send one written offer for the lot, usually within 48 hours.
Ship it, get paid
We send a free shipping kit, insured both ways. We inspect the wine when it arrives and pay you in 5 to 7 days.
Where should the fill be?
Wine slowly drops in the bottle as it ages. A high fill tells us the cork has held and the wine was kept well. Here is how we read it, on the two bottle shapes.
Bordeaux bottle (straight shoulders)
Good fill
- Into the neck
- Base of the neck
- Top of the shoulder
We look closely
- Upper shoulder
- Mid shoulder
- Low shoulder or below
Burgundy or Champagne bottle (sloped)
Good fill
- About 1 cm below the cork
- About 2 cm below the cork
- About 3 cm below the cork
We look closely
- About 4 cm below the cork
- About 5 cm below the cork
- 6 cm or more below the cork
A lower fill is not an automatic no. Older wine sits lower, and we look at every bottle on its own.

Selling Champagne: questions
How do I tell which Krug edition I have?
Grande Cuvee bottles carry an edition number on the back label, such as 169th Edition. Photograph the back label and we'll read it.
Do boxes matter?
They help on recent releases. Condition matters more.
