Superb Provenance and Meticulous Authentication The Coats Family Cellar is arguably the most prestigious fine wine collection ever offered in South Africa. It contains an expansive range of the world’s finest and most sought-after wines spanning over 150 years. Collected over many decades by the Coats family, as part of an extensive cellar, the wines were imported from Ireland into South Africa via refrigerated container and have been cellared professionally since. Each bottle is in top condition. ‘Mr Coats had a clear passion for Penfolds Grange and Mouton-Rothschild, but there are few great wines from the 20th century that weren’t in the cellar. The d’Yquem lot is also expansive and very special!’ continues Roland. Leading International fine wine expert, Michael Egan, has scrutinized and authenticated every bottle, and over 100 bottles have been tasted.
