Acker, the world’s largest fine wine auction house and America’s oldest wine merchant, has strengthened its international retail presence with dedicated sale hubs across Hong Kong, London, Japan, South Korea, Mainland China and now Singapore.

The company unveils Acker Wine Merchant, bringing collectors in Singapore and beyond high-touch access to the world’s finest wines, supported by more than $20 million of carefully curated stock. The platform offers tailored guidance to help collectors build and refine their cellars with confidence, while providing a single destination for exclusive releases, private tastings, and personalised service.

“We are launching a truly global service built on our legacy of excellence and deeply personal approach to client relationships,” said Irvin Goldman, Acker’s Global CEO and Co-owner.  “By uniting our expertise in London, Hong Kong and the US, we are uniquely positioned to serve the next generation of collectors across the world’s most dynamic markets.”

Acker Wine Merchant offers a complete suite of services for private clients and retail collectors, entirely separate from Acker’s auction activities. With this launch, Acker reinforces its identity as the definitive leader in fine wine, committed to quality, authenticity and unparalleled client service on a global scale.

Clients will benefit from dedicated Wine Merchant Specialists providing a fully personalised, retail-only experience with curated selections of rare vintages and regional specialities. This is complemented by tailored advisory services surrounding acquisition, collection building and investment, and supported by a continued focus on sustainability and innovation through partnerships with leading producers.

Positioned as a true global wine merchant, the division will leverage a $20 million fine wine inventory, enhanced storage capabilities for long-term investment and retail consignments, and significant capital availability for immediate buyouts. The client experience will be supported through a dedicated international website, a revamped e-commerce platform, and a calendar of exclusive events including tastings, masterclasses, and private dinners in London, Europe and Asia.
