Vintage wine auctions: Bordeaux, Burgundy and fine wine, searched at once

Vintage wine, particularly Bordeaux and Burgundy from recognised chateaux and producers, spans everything from immediately drinkable recent vintages to decades-old bottles now valued as much for rarity and provenance as for what's inside, and fill level, label condition and storage history all factor into value alongside the vintage year itself. A well-documented cellar clearance can turn up genuinely significant bottles a general listing would never flag.

Why vintage wine lots get missed

General house-clearance sellers frequently list wine simply as "old bottle of red wine" without naming the chateau or vintage year, so a genuinely valuable Bordeaux or Burgundy can sit unrecognised inside a listing that looks entirely ordinary.

One search across every platform

Auction Bid Assistant's free browser extension searches the-saleroom, EasyLive, Bidspotter, Invaluable, NumisBids, iCollector and LiveAuctionWorld simultaneously, alongside eBay. Search a chateau or producer name, a vintage year, or "vintage wine" generally and results return across all of them, with images, estimates, current bids where shown, and sale countdowns, sorted by platform in tabs.

Real results for "vintage wine bordeaux": genuine 1967 Chateau Meyney and 1972 Chateau du Plantier vintage Bordeaux, found in one search.

It works by searching from inside your own browser, the same as opening and searching each site yourself, just done in seconds. Nothing is stored on our servers, permissions are minimal, and the extension never places a bid on your behalf.

Alerts: for the chateaux or vintages you collect

Save a search (a chateau name, a vintage year, or "vintage wine" generally) and get emailed the moment a new lot matches it, across all covered platforms including eBay, rather than relying on remembering to check each one.

Want to try before installing?

The same search box works on this website with no install at all for eBay, iCollector, LiveAuctionWorld and Featured Auction catalogues, a quick way to see matching vintage wine lots before adding the rest of the platforms via the extension.

Built for how vintage wine collectors actually work

Save any lot with one click from search results, export your shortlist as a printable PDF or CSV before a sale, and on the day itself the optional live bridge feeds the auctioneer's asking price into the free bid calculator, so your maximum (with buyer's premium and any applicable taxes included) is always in front of you.
