Selections from the Cellars of '21' Club
A fabled New York culinary and vinous landmark, '21' Club on West 52nd Street in midtown Manhattan has served the great and the good for 80 years, and its fascinating history is tightly interwoven with the growth of America and its largest metropolis.
From Prohibition, hidden cellars and gangsters, Ernest Hemingway's visits and JFK's dining before his inauguration, to the growing dominance of American finance, the 1980s 'power lunch' and Hollywood choosing the restaurant for a scene in 'Wall Street', '21' Club is a cultural - as well as a culinary - institution.
NYWinesChristie's is honored to be offering a focused selection from its cellars. The bottles below were all sourced from lines on the wine list that have excess stock, and the capital raised from their sale at auction will be utilized to further expand and strengthen a wine list that has been awarded the Wine Spectator Grand Award for the last six years. '21' Club is one of only seven restaurants in New York City to receive this award, so bidders can be assured of the quality of the wines below - choose from heady Californian creations, an alluring array of red Burgundies, and a small offering of Italian greats, among others. Enjoy with friends, enjoy with a meal - and, in every case, savor a bottle from one of America's preeminent wine cellars.
