We are excited to announce that we have recently acquired an extraordinary Bordeaux cellar, which includes an exceptional collection of matured gems that are almost impossible to find on the market.
The collection has been put together over many years by a noted European Collector and has been impeccably stored. We are now delighted to offer this remarkable collection to our customers, which we will divide into four parts. Starting today, we are launching Part 1 of the sale, which features the Gems from the Right Bank.
Tomorrow, we will move on to Part 2, the Left Bank, followed by the First Growths on Thursday. We will conclude the sale with a special bonus offer on Friday.
To pick out a few highlights of Part 1:
The cellar represents a truly exceptional opportunity as we are unlikely to find such an extensive collection with such excellent provenance again and, given the maturity, we are unlikely to see ex-Chateau offers of these wines.
We are expecting demand to be fierce so do not wait if you would like some cases secured! Details are below, do take a look and let us know if you would like to add any of these gems to your cellar.
The Offer:
Offered subject to final confirmation and remaining unsold. Available in our Singapore cellars in 8-12 weeks. Please note that cancellation or changes to your order may not be possible after purchase. Thank you for your understanding.
