How does Vintrust value my wine?
We determine our stated value for your wine by analyzing retail data. It is our opinion that auction data is simply too inconsistent to use as a proper indicator of value – differing countries, cities, local tastes and lot combinations make auction prices inexact. Instead, we look at the market for a given wine as described by retailers throughout the United States and average the results. Ultimately, though, the sale price of your wine will be set by what you and the buyer agree to – their best offer and your accepted price. Our pricing only acts as a reliable benchmark to begin a conversation.
