Inventory Management
Carte du Vin puts you in control of your wine cellar.
As every collection is different, Carte du Vin takes a tailored approach to every cellar we work on. It starts with a free consultation of the wines currently in the cellar, and the direction that the collection is headed. Next comes a physical inventory with organization by type, region, variety, producer, and vintage utilizing Cellar Tracker, or your choice of cellar management technologies. The result is a well-manicured cellar, a detailed inventory that is viewable online or iPad app, and a plan to manage the inventory going forward.
Carte du Vin also provides ongoing cellar maintenance for clients who require it. Once the initial inventory has been performed, we can work with you to make certain it is always up to date.
Acquisitions and Sales
Moving
Wine is delicate and requires the right touch when moving from one location to the next. Our moving services can consist of inventories, packing into proper boxes, temperature-controlled storage and logistics, unpacking at the future destination, and complete inventory and organization in the new cellar. We can move your collection across town, or across the country, and manage the process the entire way. We alleviate the hassles of moving a collection while protecting your investment in transit, and all at competitive rates. If you are seeking complete confidence that your collection will be handled properly, put it in our hands.
Disaster Relief
When disasters happen in or near the cellar, it takes an experienced approach to handle the wine proficiently and professionally. Fire and water disasters present a time-sensitive concern, and there are many components of preserving your asset from further damage. Carte du Vin is positioned to handle the entire process including inventory, packing, short-term storage, and legal valuation for claims. Carte du Vin will return the wine to you and put it away better than before.
