The All Star Collection. Every lot is a standout. In this short, curated auction, there is not a single, “how did that sneak in there” lot. Every single bottle would be the highlight of many a collector’s cellar—our collector has them all, and more. Not only is the consignor a unicorn hunter, he is extremely knowledgeable about wine, cuisine, and “the good life.” What’s most important about this cellar is not only it’s breadth but it’s depth. The great wines regions of the world are covered, yes, but in deep verticals that extend back in time to the great vintages of eras long past. Whatever your collecting focus, this consignment offers the opportunity to dive deep into a specific terroir. There’s no doubt that the result of this in-depth “research” will be an understanding of a specific wine that few people—our consignor being one of them—have been able to acquire!
We’ve been waiting for a collection like this to re-launch our live auctions in Hong Kong. Since 2020, we’ve been holding our “studio sales,” live streamed from New York. Well, we’re delighted to announce that we’re coming back to Hong Kong to host this auction live from the Island Shangri-La!
All of the wines in this collection have been sourced carefully from top retailers and auction houses, and stored professionally in the UK (Octavian) and Hong Kong. They were inspected bottle-by-bottle by our team. As always at Zachys, bid with confidence.
Under the law of Hong Kong, intoxicating liquor must not be sold or supplied to a minor in the course of business.
Absentee portion for this auction is open for bidding.
The first session will start live bidding on 4/1/2023 at 11:00 AM HKT.
A link to the live auction portal will appear here 30 minutes before the live session begins.
