Selling with Ditton
If you hold fine and well kept bottles you are thinking of selling, we can place them with the right buyer — discreetly, and for a fair price. We work at the top end of the market: trophy Bordeaux and Burgundy, prestige Champagne, and rare, aged Whisky — the bottles that seldom reach an open sale. For twenty years we have acted for private collectors on both sides of a deal, and much of what we handle is placed privately, never publicly listed.
Tell us what you have. We will look into the history and, where it helps, arrange authentication through the brand owner or an independent expert. When we are confident in the provenance and condition, we find the right counterparty from our network and agree terms with you before anything moves. You stay informed throughout, and nothing is committed without your say-so.
How we work
- Provenance research — we research each bottle's history, as far as it can be known, before it goes to a buyer.
- Discretion — sales are handled quietly and in confidence; your name and your cellar stay private.
- A fair, honest price — priced on what the bottles are worth, agreed with you in advance.
- Careful handling — from your door to the buyer's, every bottle is handled to exacting standards.
Or sell outright
Prefer not to wait? If you would rather sell outright than place a bottle with a buyer, we buy premium, well stored Wine, Champagne and Whisky directly — for immediate payment, at a fair price. There is no need to store with us to sell, and your stock stays yours until you are paid. Tell us what you have and we will come back with an offer.
