How to Collect with Cellar Advisor
Data Driven Opportunities
Each recommendation is intricately curated to provide clients with the most compelling data-driven opportunities in fine wine. Every cellar plan features a select group of wines that we have identified through our extensive research, market analysis and privileged access. Our unique approach uses regression analysis to assess the relationship between price and quality to establish the fair price of a wine. This approach not only showcases our commitment to a systematic purchasing strategy but also positions our collections for impressive returns over the long-term.
Tailored Service
Cellar Advisor operates as a small team of experts, with a combined 20 years’ experience in this sector. As a team, we place great importance in getting to know our clients and understanding their goals and objectives. In the early stages of the consultation process, we will work together to create a strategy that aligns with each client’s personal needs. The main considerations will be based around personal objectives and future collection targets.
We firmly believe that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to collecting fine wine, and we recognise and welcome that clients have varying preferences for their level of involvement.
Sourcing Wine
Due to our relationship with many of the leading suppliers worldwide, Cellar Advisor has privileged access to many of the world’s most elusive wines which are not readily accessible for private collectors.
Always acquiring as direct to source as possible, means that our clients will always be offered best in market pricing and provenance.
Storage and Provenance
At Cellar Advisor, we understand the importance of storing wine in perfect condition, which is why we offer our clients the ability to store their wines through our trusted and professional bonded warehouse.

With our carefully selected partners, we can ensure that your wines are professionally stored, and your wine portfolio will keep its value in the long term. All wines stored with us are also insured at replacement value for your peace of mind.
