Sell your Screaming Eagle.
Screaming Eagle comes from a small Oakville vineyard and reaches most people only through its mailing list, which is why it is the wine many Napa collectors build around. If you have a bottle or a run of vintages, we'll make an offer.

How we price Screaming Eagle
On a wine this scarce, provenance is most of the conversation. Tell us where it came from and how it has been stored, and photograph the capsule, the front label and the back label.
Vintage and fill come next. We price each bottle on its own and make one offer for the lot.
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 Screaming Eagle: questions
Why do you ask for so many photos?
Rare wine deserves a careful look. The capsule, both labels and the fill tell us the most, and they let us make a firm offer.
I bought it from the mailing list. Does that help?
Yes. Tell us, and keep any shipping records. A clear history is part of the price.
