We isolate what others flatten: provenance, condition, storage, and history—side by side, across every auction that counts.
Scrutiny and security—where deserved.
Parsing provenance into the small hours isn’t most people’s idea of pleasure. It is, however, ours.
Rare wine, made legible.
SERVICES
1. Intrinsic Value Benchmarks
We do not chase the hammer; we define fair, intrinsic value for every bottle—so you can press or pass with conviction. Fee-only—no inventory, no seller commissions—so our numbers stay honest.
2. Provenance & Condition Intelligence
Line-by-line forensics of storage, ownership, fill levels, labels, and capsule oxidation—bench-marked against historical auction data. A provenance story that looks stellar in isolation can fade under direct comparison; our model calibrates those optics and folds them straight into bid strategy.
3. Permanent Market Surveillance
Every major sale, every week. Our system parses the global auction calendar in real time, registering the quiet off-season and online sales most buyers miss. Opportunity compounding begins here.
4. Precision Lot Sheets
A single, elegant grid of every upcoming lot that meets your criteria, sortable by price, condition tier, and provenance score. Compare auction house lots in one glance.
5. Bid Strategy & Rarity Guidance
Target and ceiling bids arrive with context. We quantify micro-rarity—how often a lot with your exact provenance and condition surfaces—so you know when one more paddle raise secures the unicorn and when patience pays.
6. Annual Acquisition Planning
Your yearly budget, mapped against the auction calendar. We rank upcoming lots across every house, flag trade-offs, and reserve capital for the moment that matters most.
