TOP LOTS FROM AROUND THE WORLD
The consignor of the following lots builts his collection with passion and precision. His beautiful home cellar was meticulously organized through Cellar Tracker and is a temple to the Cabernet wines he loves. He is a member of many coveted mailing lists and has supplemented his collection of the cults through auction. Many of his rare bottles were sourced from auctions and top private collections and were examined by a team of Christie's international specialists.
These lots were removed from both pristine home storage and top grade professional storage, all temperature and humidity controlled. Tasting samples sourced from this collection, including 1999 Harlan, 2000 Colgin Herb Lamb and 2000 Sloan, all performed beautifully.
Pétrus--Vintage 1985
Pomerol, cru exceptionnel
Level: bottom neck; capsule cut by Christie's specialists to reveal château and vintage branded cork
"Equal top with Mouton, which had a fractionally finer bouquet, and Pétrus, the slightly better palate. Most recently, at 15 years of age, now mature looking, rich, complete. Last tasted at Stephen Kaplan's '85s event, April 2000 ***** Perfect now, another 20 years of life." MB, Vintage Wine
