RARE TREASURES FROM SEVERAL OF EUROPE'S FINEST PRODUCERS AND VINEYARDS
Recently removed from a purpose built, underground home cellar and professional storage both maintaining correct temperature and humidity control.
We are proud to feature a third consecutive installment from this Gentleman's fine cellar. As before in our March and September 2003 catalogues this collection once again comprises the finest producers in their most sought after vintages.
The following selection spans the 20th Century's greatest vintages. As with any great collector of fine wine the owner has consumed with eternal enjoyment many of the selections herein. Consequently, many of the wine are being made available in limited quantity for this sale.
As you will see in the next few pages the collection is heavily weighted towards Burgundy. Incredibly, many of the earlier offered gems are making a second appearance. This is due to the nature of the cellar which comprises three locations and no discernable organization. The home cellar is literally an underground room full of unmarked boxed wine! Predictably, this has meant the parcelling out of some incredibly rare wine.
HIGHLIGHTS: 1945 Certan de May; 1947, 1949, 1950 Pétrus; 1947, 1949 La Mission Haut Brion; 1934 Clos de Lambray; 1934 Chambolle Musigny, Dr. Barolet; 1935 Musigny, de Vogüé; 1937 Clos de Vougeot, Leroy; 1952 Richebourg, DRC; 1959 Mazis Chambertin, Rousseau; ; 1961 Musigny, de Vogüé; 1961 & 1966 Chambertin, Leroy; 1980 Richebourg, H. Jayer
Much of the collection has been acquired at major auction houses both in the USA and UK and compiled over the last 20 plus years.
