The house of MYTIKA regularly offers
exceptional wine and spirits auctions, inviting you to discover outstanding products to collect, enjoy, or share with moderation.
If not opened immediately, these bottles can be cellared with care by their owners for many years. Wine stands out as a true collector's item, while retaining its intrinsic ability to foster conviviality and sharing. Among the most iconic expressions of this expertise, exceptional terroirs and estates can be found in France, but increasingly on the international stage as well.
Popular Terroirs and Estates
- Petrus, Pomerol, France
- Château d’Yquem, Sauternes
- Château Mouton Rothschild, Pauillac
- Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Grands Échezeaux Grand Cru, Côte de Nuits
One of the main advantages of spirits over wine is their greater ageing potential, without requiring significant storage constraints.
How to Determine the Rarity of a Bottle of Wine or Spirit?
Just as with works of art, scarcity plays a decisive economic role in determining potential prices. However, it is also the complexity of production and the history behind the liquid that influence its final value.
The Great Spirit Families
Gin
French gin, English gin, German gin, Swiss gin: there is something for everyone!Long overlooked for its bitterness, gin production has experienced exponential growth with the rise of mixology in the 2010s. While it is rarely vintage-dated, it is still possible to find small "batches"—meaning limited production volumes for a single run.
Whisky
Japanese whisky, Scotch whisky, or French whisky: the choice is yours.Whisky remains a safe bet for any collector. Today, there is a wide variety available to suit all preferences (peated or unpeated, aged in specific casks, etc.).
From Brittany to Corsica and through Normandy, France is home to a wealth of dedicated distilleries. While the phenomenon is not new, French whisky has been booming for several decades. France offers prestigious, beautifully crafted single malts, as shown in this
selection of French distilleries. Collectors can thus find rare bottles from these highly confidential initial productions.
Liqueurs
ChartreuseGreen, Yellow, or Tarragona, this legendary liqueur from the Carthusian Monks is the product of a centuries-old expertise that has been widely copied but never equalled.
