Selling wine

We ask all our new members whether they are buying wine for drinking or investment and the overwhelming majority select ‘both’

Even those who initially intend to drink all of their wines find that their buying enthusiasm overtakes their consumption at some point – leaving them with surplus wine.

This, of course, is the main benefit of having wine professionally stored In Bond – it keeps your options open since bonded wines are far more saleable and the VAT is not recoverable.

With a bewildering array of options to sell your wine, from auctions to exchanges to brokers feel free to contact us for independent advice. This guidance will likely fit into three categories:

You have a buyer and you’d like help to transfer wines to the new owner. We can arrange to transfer your bottles In Bond or Duty Paid to your chosen destination

You’d like independent assistance identifying wine that should be sold. This service is part of our premier membership

You’d like NEXUS to get you the best price. We can sell wines for you for a fixed commission starting at 3% depending on your membership level and choice of route to market

For the purposes of managing expectation, collectors should be aware that the values quoted on your inventory are best market, that is, the cost to replace the wines. There is a significant spread on buy and sell prices so the cash offer for a given wine could be as much as 30% less than the best market price.
