FOCUSED COLLECTING
This small but stunning consignment arrives to Christie's from a long-term client in various departments. Sadly, the client is moving from to a new country and bequeaths the cellar to the locals to savour. All wines were purchased on or near release and stored professionally wtih Morgan Manhattan.
Château La Mission Haut-Brion--Vintage 1982
Pessac-Léognan
Levels: into neck
"The '82 La Mission is a classic claret, with a nose of fresh currants and notes of tobacco, cigar leaf, and cedar. On the palate the tannins are firm and the wine is full-bodied yet fully accessible. The wine is really drinking immensely well today, yet one has the sense that it will continue to improve for decades to come. A monumental classic." CC, November 2010 at dinner in Hong Kong with friends.
