Property of a Lady and Gentleman
I first met this generous family back in the summer of 2006. When invited to visit this locally based cellar I was very impressed by not only with the depth and breath of the collection but I remain thoroughly enchanted with their seemingly limitless appreciation for all of the world's great wines. Since that time, through their extensive gourmet knowledge, I have had the great pleasure of being introduced to some of Los Angeles' great tucked away restaurants. Of course, over the past two years we had several generous opportunities to try many of the contents from this collection. From Champagne to little known Australian Cabernets from Bordeaux to Burgundy (many of which are located below) each being a perfect example of cool temperature storage. To this day they serve as reference benchmarks for me.
The following cellar selections represents over three decades of fine and rare wine connoisseurship. Many of these wines were purchased in multiple case quantity and kept in double deep cellar racking and maintained in very cool temperature all year round. All of the wines before you were purchased by this owner on release from sources such as Martines Wines (Leroy, Jayer, Rouget) or from known reputable local establishments such as Wallys Wines and Spirits of Los Angeles or The Wine House of Los Angeles.
Additional wines from this cellar, Burgundy greats such as Henri Jayer, Emmanuel Rouget, Armand Rousseau and Domaine Ponsot, are on offer in our Los Angeles October 30 catalogue vintage. I encourage you to seek out what selections have been chosen for both sales.
