A precise, reliable, and recognized valuation of your collection.
Do you need to know the exact real value of your collection? A certified fair market value appraisal report is a recognized professional assessment that provides better protection in various life situations.
For an insurer, notary, accountant, or heir, a list of bottles is not enough: you need a reliable, credible, signed, dated, and methodical document, bottle by bottle.
Claim or insurance coverage
To insure your collection at its true value, or to support a claim following breakage, theft, flooding, or a cellar failure.
Fair and equitable distribution of goods
During a separation or the administration of an estate, a credible, neutral, and documented report prevents disagreements and facilitates the work of the professionals involved.
Estate planning
To include your collection in your balance sheet, prepare a donation or transfer, or simply track the evolution of an appreciating asset.

The report serves as the basis for the sales proposal and provides you with an independent point of reference before negotiating.
