Hong Kong High-Price Champagne Buyback - Dom Perignon - Krug - Salon

Main Champagne Brands and Vintages We Buy

I. Dom Pérignon

Standard Vintage: Vintages like 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013 are all in demand. Among them, 2002 and 2008 are recognized by critics as century vintages, maintaining consistently high buyback prices.

Plénitude Series: P2 Vintage (aged on lees for approximately 16 years), P3 Vintage (aged for over 30 years). Production is scarce, and buyback prices far exceed standard models.

Limited Edition Art Collaborations: Collaborations with artists like Andy Warhol, Jeff Koons, Lenny Kravitz, Lady Gaga, and BAPE, due to their artistic collection value, are generally 30%-100% higher than the standard edition of the same vintage.

Rosé Edition: Dom Pérignon Vintage Rosé, P2 Rosé, and P3 Rosé. Production is even smaller than the white versions, leading to even higher prices.

II. Krug

Grande Cuvée: Non-vintage core model, each box has an Édition number (169ème, 170ème, 171ème Édition). New editions have seen steady increases in buyback prices recently.

Vintage Models: Krug Vintage from 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2006, 2008 are considered stable investments for collectors.

Single Vineyard Top Models: Clos du Mesnil (Blanc de Blancs) and Clos d'Ambonnay (Blanc de Noirs) are the two pinnacle champagnes.

Krug Rosé: Rosé editions from 18th-29th Éditions have low market circulation and stable long-term buyback potential.

III. Salon

Salon releases vintages only three to four times a decade, exclusively using Chardonnay from the Le Mesnil-sur-Oger Grand Cru. We mainly buy vintages from 1996, 1997, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2012. Among them, the three century vintages of 1996, 2002, and 2008 are particularly sought after in the market.

IV. Louis Roederer Cristal

We buy Cristal Vintage standard models, Cristal Rosé Vintage, and Cristal Vinothèque (late disgorgement aged version). Cristal, once a favorite in hip-hop circles, has recently gained renewed appreciation from collectors, with prices continually rising.

V. Other High-End Champagnes

Taittinger Comtes de Champagne: Blanc de Blancs and Rosé models are favorites among Chardonnay collectors.

Pol Roger Sir Winston Churchill: Churchill commemorative bottles, vintage models have stable value.

Bollinger La Grande Année, R. D.: 007 Bond's preferred champagne. R. D. (Récemment Dégorgé) late disgorgement version has a higher buyback price than La Grande Année.

Philipponnat Clos des Goisses: Another single-vineyard champagne legend, older vintages repeatedly break records at auctions.

Ruinart Dom Ruinart, Henriot Cuvée Hemera, Charles Heidsieck Blanc des Millénaires and similar top-tier wines from these wineries are also bought back.

What Determines the Price of Champagne?

Vintage Quality: Century vintages like 2002 and 2008 are significantly higher than ordinary vintages; for the same Dom Pérignon, 2002 is generally 30%-50% more expensive than 2010.

Aging Depth: Different aging periods from the same winery can vary greatly. Dom Pérignon P3 is generally 3-5 times more expensive than the standard Vintage; earlier Krug Édition numbers are more valuable.

Storage Condition: We check for light exposure, temperature fluctuations, and horizontal storage (a major enemy of cork drying out). If the neck label is soaked by wine or the cork is sunken by more than 2mm, it will result in a significant discount.

Bottle and Accessories: Original gift boxes, silk bags, wine certificates, and original wooden cases (OWC) in complete condition can increase the overall value by 10%-20% compared to loose bottles.

Authenticity: Counterfeit Dom Pérignon and Krug have become more common recently. We verify from multiple angles including bottle embossing, bottle bottom numerical codes, label printing dots, and neck laser marks. Customers are welcome to observe the entire process.

Most Frequently Asked Questions

What is the approximate price of Dom Pérignon Plénitude P2 and P3?

P2 is aged on lees for approximately 16 years, and P3 for over 30 years. Production is much smaller than standard Vintage, so buyback prices are generally 2-4 times that of the standard vintage of the same year. For detailed market trends, please refer to the Dom Pérignon series.

Do you buy back champagne past its best-before date?

Top champagnes like Dom Pérignon, Krug, Salon, and Cristal don't truly "expire." In fact, older vintages, if properly stored, can be more valuable. However, if the cork is sunken, the wine is cloudy, or there is significant leakage, the price will be discounted.

How much extra for a full case with an original wooden box?

Yes. An original wooden box, original certificates, and complete original accessories can add 10-20% to the price. Limited editions like Krug Clos du Mesnil and Salon Le Mesnil can see even greater increases if the full case is unopened and sealed.

Which has a higher price, Krug Clos du Mesnil or Clos d'Ambonnay?

Clos d'Ambonnay, being a single-vineyard Pinot Noir, is rarer, and its market price is usually higher than Clos du Mesnil. The difference for specific vintages can be tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.

I have several bottles of Cristal, Salon, and Krug. Can I get a quote for all of them at once?

Absolutely, and a full batch receives an additional 5%-10% premium. Just send photos of the front, back, neck label, and outer box of each bottle via WhatsApp 46135667. You're also welcome to include imported spirits, baijiu, and sake for a combined quote, which could add a few more percentage points to the overall premium.
