PROPERTY OF A TEXAS GENTLEMAN
From a long-time friend of Christie's comes this collection of rare Burgundy and Bordeaux. Removed from custom-built, climate controlled home storage by Christie's specialists for this sale and transferred by temperature controlled truck for this sale. Featured in this collection are 1978 Romanée-Conti, 1937 Richebourg from Maison Leroy, a rare double-magnum of 1976 Pétrus and more.
Château d'Yquem--Vintage 1975
Sauternes, 1er grand cru classé
Levels: two very top shoulder, two top shoulder; lightly corroded capsules, slight signs of old seepage, two water stained labels, lightly bin soiled labels
"A recent bottle of '75 Yquem proves this to be among the very best vintages of the past fifty years. The wine is beginning to mature now, with aromas of butterscotch, caramel, mocha, and ground coffee along with a fine minerally note. On the palate it is rich but never cloying, with a balancing acidity and a very slight bitter note that give an impression of dryness. Great long finish." At the 2010 Rare! Tasting in Detroit, CC, August 2010
