How do I arrange shipping or collection for wine purchases?
Updated on Thu, 27 Mar, 2025 at 03:38 PM
All Sotheby’s wine and spirits shipments or collections must be initiated by the client.
To arrange shipping, local delivery, or collection of your purchase, contact the relevant agents listed below. Include a copy of your purchase invoice, your Sotheby’s account number, purchased sale, and lot number with your request. There is a minimum lead time of 48 hours required to prepare your order.
Note that Sotheby’s is not authorized to ship to certain destinations due to domestic and international alcohol shipping restrictions. Consult our Guide for Buyers for the shipping guidelines of all Sotheby’s locations. In the event that we are not able to ship to your requested destination, we will provide you with alternative options or contacts to assist with shipping your property.
