AN IMPRESSIVE COLLECTION OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY BORDEAUX, INCLUDING TOP WINES OF THE GREAT 1982 AND 1990 VINTAGES
This remarkable selection of Bordeaux, lots 102 to 118, encompasses some of the greatest wines to be produced in the period 1982 to 1990. Many of 'left-bank' first-growths of the legendary 1982 vintage are included, plus Cheval-Blanc and Leoville-Las-Cases. Exceptional, benchmark wines such as Lafite '86 and Haut-Brion'89 are also offered as are Latour and Margaux of the great 1990 vintage. A unique aspect of this offering is that these wines have never been moved from their bonded storage since original purchase by the owner or their agent, following each vintage and all are in original wooden cases. This is a rare opportunity to acquire some of the most impressive wines produced in post-war Bordeaux history with the additional guarantee of this uninterrupted cellerage and rarely available long-term provenance.
Lying in Gloucestershire at Christie's (Octavian)
Lots marked ?? are offered duty-paid, but available in bond
Offered in original wooden cases
See also lot 483 for wine from the same provenance
Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1982
Pauillac, 1er cru classé. Château-bottled
In original tissues. Very good appearance
Tasting note: Most recently, still impressively deep and comparatively youthful; a well developed, sweet harmonious bouquet. Mouthfilling, so much on show, so much left to show. April 2001. MB.
