**Langton’s sells Australia’s most valuable private wine cellar **


One of Australia’s most significant and valuable private wine collections has been listed for sale at

www.langtons.com.au.  Bringing together traditional customer service values and state-of-the-art technology,

Langton’s is Australia’s leading online fine wine marketplace.

The catalogue which comprises many of the world’s greatest, rarest and important wines is expected to generate

enormous interest across the fine wine world. 


“The sheer quality, range of wines and scale of this single cellar is exceptional,” says auction head Stewart

Langton. “It reflects a single minded pursuit for the best wines of the world. This auction catalogue is like a great

stamp collection; almost every important wine post code is represented.

This 1000 case+ collection is everything you would not expect of an investment-type cellar! It represents a highly

personal and whimsical life of fine wine enjoyment. The catalogue is a remarkable narrative of wine collecting

over the last forty years; an early interest in Australian red wine, a fascination with Bordeaux and a heartfelt

connection with Burgundy in later life. Along the way, he has discovered the extraordinary wines of Vega Sicilia,

Antonio Gaja, Domaine Tempier, Dienhard and Dr Loosen etc. 


This cellar is completely unique in the Australian context. It is arguably the greatest international wine cellar ever

to come on the Australian wine market. Indeed this private collection is perhaps one of most extensive in the

world; the number of lots in this single sale may well deserve a listing in the Guinness Book of Records!" 


The seller has been fastidious in the extreme. All his wines have been stored in his own private state-of-the-art

refrigerated/ humidified cellars, held at a constant 12 degrees Celsius since purchase. 


This incredible treasure trove of wine riches from a private collector, cellared in optimum conditions since original

purchase, is now open for sale. 


The Auction closes 6pm on Tuesday 22nd December (Eastern Australian Summer Time)
