Our Process

At L’Archive du Vin, we believe in an experience that is as refined and meticulous as the memories you cherish. Our process is designed to be seamless, all-inclusive, and steeped in the care and craftsmanship that defines our brand. Here’s how we transform your wine labels into timeless legacies:

Begin your journey by choosing the all-inclusive service that best fits your collection. On our product page, you’ll select:

• Bottle Tier: Indicating how many bottles you will send.
• Frame & Presentation: Choose your preferred frame size, material, and (for wood) color—ensuring a perfect match for your décor.
• Label Configuration: Specify the number of labels to be framed.

Rest assured, the price you see is all-inclusive—covering the custom shipping kit, professional label removal, archival preservation, and bespoke presentation—without any hidden fees.

Once you order, we promptly dispatch a custom-designed shipping kit to your door. This kit includes:

• A sturdy, protective shipping box with carefully engineered pulp inserts.
• Detailed, step-by-step instructions for preparing your bottles.
• A prepaid return shipping label and sealing tape.

Our all-inclusive kit ensures that your bottles are safely packaged and ready for transit—removing any hassle from the process.

Following our easy instructions, you’ll:

• Rinse and dry your empty wine bottles thoroughly.
• Securely pack them in the provided kit.
• Affix the prepaid label and ship the kit back to us.

This thoughtful process guarantees that your bottles—and the precious labels they bear—arrive in pristine condition.

Upon receipt, our trained specialists conduct a careful inspection of every bottle and label. We assess each label’s condition with the utmost care, documenting its state and noting any pre-existing marks or imperfections. A detailed condition report is then prepared and sent to you—ensuring full transparency and confidence in our process.

Using museum-quality, archival techniques, we gently remove your wine labels:

• Precision Removal: Our expert team employs advanced tools and controlled methods to lift each label intact.
• Archival Preservation: Labels are then flattened, cleaned, and treated with acid-free, UV-protective materials to safeguard their beauty for generations.

Your preserved labels are transformed into an elegant keepsake:

• Custom Framing: We meticulously arrange and mount your labels in premium frames, available in a range of sizes and materials.
• Binder Albums: For those who wish to curate an ever-growing collection, we offer archival binder albums with clear, protective sleeves.

Each presentation is tailored to showcase the unique story behind your wine, turning it into a work of art.

Every finished piece undergoes a rigorous quality check:

• We ensure that the archival process, framing, or binder album meets our highest standards.
• Your keepsake is then carefully packaged and shipped back to you using secure, insured methods.

We follow up with you to ensure your complete satisfaction—because at L’Archive du Vin, preserving memories is a craft we take to heart.
