Unfortunately, not much of a drinker so looking to get rid of them. Posting a few I currently have on hand before retrieving the rest. What are my options?

You aren’t allowed to sell wine on this sub. If by get rid of them you mean give them away I’ll take them off your hands 🙂 If not your best bet is to find an auction house near you.

Don’t know where you are but I have good experiences with K&L

don’t expect much. “my uncle’s house” isn’t a well-known storage location or anything, so it’ll be tough to prove provenance to anyone who wants them for more than just adding bottles.

Auction house! And be sure to store them correctly after you retrieve them. Better yet, leave all of them in your uncle’s cellar if this is an option. And just to be clear, these are really great wines! Your uncle had a great, but expensive taste!

Nice bottles, and definitely worth something on the secondary market…if they were stored correctly and you can potentially prove that.

These would all be fun to try. Range from 150-400 a bottle.

Save them until you can appreciate them, those are amazing bottles

OP those are some of the most desirable vineyards around. The issue you have is the storage history. Do you have any pictures of how there where stored, or perhaps even sell it back to the place he bought from?

You have some awesome wines there, Winebid.com buys smaller wine collections like this if you are looking for a way to offload it. They have less stringent proof of providence than many second hand sellers.

That margaux! How have these been stored? Do you know?

Selling them if you aren’t much of a wine drinker. How much they are worth depends on how they were stored. A wine stored at cellar temp is going to be very different after 30 years than a wine stored on the kitchen counter.
Where are you located? You have some very desirable bottles and the fill level on the first picture suggests they were stored well.
