Bidding advice
You can place bids either under the lot image on the main auction page or on the right side of the individual lot page.
Placing a Maximum Bid
Use the "Set your bid limit" button on the left side of the bidding panel to enter the highest amount you're willing to bid on a lot. Our system will then automatically raise your bid in set increments if you’re outbid, up to your maximum. If someone bids above your set limit, we’ll notify you by email so you can choose whether to increase your bid.
Placing a Single Bid
Alternatively, place a single bid by selecting the button on the right side of the bidding panel. The button displays the amount needed for the next increment. For example, if the current highest bid is £50.00, the button will show "+ £55.00" (reflecting a £5.00 increment).
Incremental Bidding Explained
Our system increases bids based on preset increments, as shown in the table below, whether you set a maximum bid or make a single bid.
Bottle Details
Coto De Imaz Rioja Reserva 1991
El Coto de Rioja was established just north of Logroño in 1970 by Bankunión, a Spanish industrial bank. The director in charge of the winery, Eduardo Santos Ruiz, eventually formed his own wine company, Baron De Ley, which now owns El Coto de Rioja.
The wine is 100% Tempranillo, matured for 17 months in 225L American oak barrels. 1991 was a very good year for Spanish wines.
Please note condition of the label.
