Selling your cellar: it's time to weed out the old and make room for the new

Article Abstract:

Collectors of wines should consider selling some of their bottles or cases if they have changed tastes in wine, if their collection has grown too large or if they have wine that has appreciated in value. Recommendations are given to help collectors determine what bottles they should keep, either for value's sake or taste's sake.

Celebrated collector Lloyd Flatt rebuilds his cellar, and focuses his buying strategy

Article Abstract:

Wine collector Lloyd Flatt at 58 still actively buys wines for his cellar which, at its peak, had around 15,000 bottles consisting predominantly of French wine primarily of the Bourdeaux variety. Flatt compares wine collecting to art collecting although the latter has a permanence which the former lacks.
