Stock up the cellar in time for Christmas at Tennants Auctioneer’s Fine Wine and Whisky Sale on 4th December, when over two hundred lots of both fine and affordable wine and whisky go under the hammer. A wide range of Champagne, Wine, Whisky, Port and Cognac offers a mix of bottles for investing and collecting along with lots perfect for drinking during the Christmas party season with estimates starting at just £50-70.
Champagnes by the leading houses offer bottles starting from £80, with examples from the likes of Pol Roger, Dom Pérignon, Veuve Clicquot, Möet & Chandon, Heidsieck & Co, Bollinger, and Krug. For those looking for a tipple with a bit of extra sparkle, three bottles of Louis Roederer Cristal 1999 Champagne will be offered with an estimate of £200-300 each (all figures exclude buyer’s premium).
The sale also includes a good variety of wine for drinking, with multi-bottle lots from leading houses such as Château Mouton Rothschild, Château La Tour Haut Brion and Château Lafite Rothschild. One of the rarest bottles on offer in the sale is a single bottle of Vega-Sicilia 1991 “Unico”, Ribera del Duero, offered with an estimate of £200-300. For those looking for something for after dinner, a good range of port and Armagnac include a bottle of Chateau de Monbel 1959 Armagnac and a lot of eighteen bottles of Tuke Holdsworth 1947 Vintage Port (estimate: £600-900), as well as examples from Dow’s, Fonseca, Taylor’s, Warre’s and Graham’s.
