Our Finest and Rarest Wines auction on 21 March in London features three great collections that together epitomise the appeal of buying wine at Sotheby’s.

The Bordeaux Wine Bank Collection kicks off the sale with parcels of First Growths, Classed Growths, Second Wines and Right Bank Bordeaux from 2000-2007.

The Adrian Bowden Collection Part III gives wine lovers the opportunity to acquire rare and highly sought-after bottles from Bordeaux, Burgundy, The Rhône and Australia from this magnificent cellar.

A stunning ensemble of Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and German Wine comes from the aptly named Classic Collector’s Cellar whilst the remainder of the sale includes Burgundy from Domaine de la Romanée Conti and Henri Jayer, Rhône from Guigal and J. L. Chave and further parcels and mixed cases of Bordeaux from the last four decades.
