Boutique = Premium
Here all listings with the quality grading levels of A-C and / or containing at least 85% content from a single region are displayed. When listed within the Main market, if meeting the Boutique quality parameters, then these listings will automatically be duplicated within this premium filter.
Boutique provides an opportunity for buyers and sellers to offer and source premium quality, appellation and regional wines.
Direct = Invitation Only
Professional Members Only
Members can add sourcing requirements or offer available wines, and confidentially invite up to 8 members to respond through the Direct market. This enables pre-qualification of the members you would like to notify and trade with, without your wine details being seen by the whole market.
Your anonymity is retained throughout the offer and sampling process to ensure a fair negotiation and analysis so trades can be completed fairly, based on the wine's specifications, style/quality, pricing and supply terms. Direct listings are displayed on the Main market, but the important details are locked, including price, volume/quantities, incoterm location and the wine's technical details. Invited members are provided with an access code to view the wine's details.
