Wine & Whisky
Sotheby's one of the leading Wine Auctioneers had a successful 2009 aided by the introduction of online bidding and importantly the introduction of auctions in Asia. Discussing Sotheby’s wine sales in 2009 Serena Sutcliffe MW, Sotheby’s Worldwide Head of Wine, said: “This year will be remembered as the one in which Asian collectors overtook the US in the purchase of fine wine at auction. The demand for top vintages from the very best Châteaux has been so consistently strong this year that our sales, with only one exception, have achieved totals above their top estimates."
