Auction Analysis

Wine auctions have become increasingly popular. On some days there are as many as four sales occurring simultaneously.  We will help you execute the right bids at the right price. Whether you attend the sale yourself, place your own absentee bids or want us to attend the auction in your place, allow us to provide you with market intelligence, prudent pricing advice and strategy guidance.

Turnkey Collections/Structured Buying

Our turnkey program is available with or without cellar construction and installation. If you already have a cellar and want to acquire a complete collection quickly, we are equipped to do so.

We are available to act as purchasing agents for the retainer of your choice. We begin by tasting with you to determine your interests and palate, and proceed to attend the major auctions and monitor wines coming to market direct from established collectors to find the best bottles for you.

Acquisitions and Liquidation

Established relationships with major importers, brokers, retailers and auction houses provide a diverse supply source and preferential access or terms. Let us leverage the tremendous clout of our collective clients to help you buy or sell at the right price, with the best terms.

Appraisals and Insurance

Every collector should know the value of their collection and have proper insurance to protect it.  We are excited to provide the first comprehensive, affordable, stand-alone wine collection insurance program in the business.   Our policy covers transit, breakage, storage lockers, flooding and other natural disasters.  Search insureyourwine.com for more information.

Whether you’re suffering a loss due to damage or destruction, mitigating a family wine-related crisis, or any number of collection crises’, we provide the service and knowledge to help you through the problem quickly and efficiently.  We’ll work with you, your insurance company and legal team on all matters pertaining to the problem including appraisal, logistics, sales and replacement.

Cellar Design

Rely on our experience to ensure your cellar is optimized for ease of use.  We work closely with teams of designers, architects, carpenters and builders to help avoid mistakes and make sure the final product is exactly to your preferences.
