Buying wine at auction is interesting, fun and exciting. It’s a way of getting your hands on rarer wines, wines from the cellars of serious collectors, or wines that are new to your palette - all at prices that are much lower than retail. Our November 2024 auction comes from collectors who have very fine mature wines, some from wonderfully historic vintages, and some from more recent vintages, but all of which are ready to drink now.
Chiswick Auctions offers a Buyer’s Premium of 21% plus VAT on all lots in this sale, compared to the usual 26% plus VAT. Additionally, there are no extra surcharges when you place commission bids or bid live through the Chiswick Auctions website, whether you're participating from your laptop or making a telephone bid anywhere in the world.
