She is truly an epitome of dedicated professional that I have come across in the industry.Posted on Google
L Cisecki21 January 2026When I decided to auction some of the whisky I had, I had no idea where to start. The process was very intimidating reaching out to houses like Sotheby’s, Christies or others in the UK. It was recommended to me that I look into Iron Gate Auctions, a Canadian company and I’m so glad I did! My first conversation with Ajay Bhardwaj (Director, Spirits) put me at ease immediately with his down to earth, friendly approach. His knowledge and passion for the spirit was also reassuring. His team in Calgary were just as gracious. As for the auction itself, I was very pleased with the results and would not hesitate to recommend Iron Gate.Posted on Google

D R. Lewis23 August 2025If you have collectible wines and haven’t sold them before, you, as a consignor, probably have some trepidation (and rightly so) as to whom to trust in this endeavour. I have no hesitation whatsoever in saying to you - or experienced sellers - that the team at Iron Gate Auctions know what they are doing and in their ability to manage the end to end process of realizing your wine’s market value. Here’s why: I have been dealing with Warren Porter and his Iron Gate company’s team for over a decade now. Through them, I purchased the vast majority of my collectible wines. When I started collecting, I relied on Iron Gate to advise me as to which ones would be suitable for creating a wine cellar collection designed on the three principles of maturation, investment, and inheritance. Now, at this time of my life, I am downsizing and therefore relied on Warren's team once again to help me in navigating the selling process. His team was tremendously helpful in identifying which ones should go to auction and in providing extremely detailed reporting on each wine’s Estimated High/Low values at auction. Then they provided all the onboarding and logistics needed to move nearly 500 bottles of my wine from Nova Scotia in a temperature-controlled moving van to their Alberta headquarters. I have been very comfortable with the ability of the team at Iron Gate Auctions to manage the process of selling high-end wines from the onboarding process to the high-resolution photos of my wines on the auction online catalogue through live Auction updates of each wine’s Bid and to realize sales figures within their Estimated Values. That was followed by the ultimate thrill of receiving a timely payout. Their process is totally seamless from end to end!Posted on Google

N Turner3 July 2025I cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Irongate Wine Auctions. I purchased a few cases / spent a few thousand dollars and from start to finish, their communication has been nothing short of outstanding. Every step of the process was handled with clarity, professionalism, and care — a true testament to their dedication to both buyers and sellers. A very special thank you goes to Kathryn Taggart, who has been absolutely phenomenal. Kathryn went above and beyond in every possible way — answering questions promptly, providing clear and helpful guidance, and always making me feel like a valued client. Her attention to detail, responsiveness, and genuine passion for what she does made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. It’s rare to find this level of customer service and dedication these days. Irongate sets the bar incredibly high, and I look forward to many future transactions with them. Highly recommend!Posted on Google
S Macqueen11 June 2025I have participated in several Fine Spirit auctions through Iron Gate and have always been happy with both the collections and the service. The shipping and pick-up are seamless and trouble-free, sometimes arriving early, providing me with the opportunity to grab my winnings earlier than expected. Staff on-site are always friendly and helpful. Ajay Bhardwaj, Director of Spirits, is as professional and knowledgeable as they come, and always has some great bottles up for grabs. Slàinte!Posted on Google
J Remington10 June 2025Nothing but great things to say about purchasing rare vintage whiskies through this auction house. A great variety of lots with honest and realistic reserve prices.

Everyone you speak to at this auction house is so respectful and eager to answer all your queries . Both both wine and spirits specialists know their product category very very well and that really helps when you are bidding on some dusty wines and spirits . Auction ends and the winnings show up at your door magically in a few days . seamless . Extremely pleased with how this operation is being run by professionals. Please keep doing the excellent work .

K Narayansingh5 June 2025What can I say about Ajay and Iron Gate! Ajay has established himself as an industry leader in the field of spirits, in particular, with his positive attitude and his partnership with Iron Gate Auctions. I've been involved in bidding, and the process was seamless. Searchable databases let you zero in on your favourite wine and spirits. I have yet to win a bid, but that just shows how popular their auctions have become! *****+0Posted on Google
K Mills4 June 2025We recently went through a significant downsize and had to find external storage for half of our wine. The team at Iron Gate were extremely professional and made the move seamless. Tracie followed up quickly, answering all of my questions and concerns and coordinated the logistics with Carmen. Tenzin arrived on time on the pick up day and brought additional packing supplies just in case. Part of our wine was going with us. It was a challenge to make sure the wines were separated ahead of the pick up. Tenzin worked quickly and efficiently and clarified any questions he had. He moved the wine from our home storage in the basement and took care of the wine and the house. He verified the count with me. Overall, the pickup was totally seamless. Tenzin did a great job!Posted on Google
L Abesdris29 May 2025Have been bidding on wine and spirits with Iron Gate for years. It’s always a fun and rewarding experience. Decided to consign my whiskey collection with them a few months ago and the process has been completely seamless. Wanted to express my thanks to Ajay and the entire team at Iron Gate for helping me organize my collection and, subsequently, going through the process of valuating, photographing and selling over 60 bottles for me. No small feat. Would recommend Iron Gate to anyone looking to part with a wine or spirit collection, whether big or small.Posted on Google
