TOPMOST VERTICAL SELECTIONS FROM A WELL APPOINTED WEST COAST CELLAR
Property of a Beverly Hills Fine Wine Aficionado
Recently inspected for sale by Christie's Specialists. Removed from both custom home cellarage and the finest professional storage maintaining exceptional temperature and humidity for long term wine care. Transported for sale under dedicated temperature control arrangements.
We are proud to bring forth this well-appointed selection from the cellar of a top Media Executive. It has been a distinct pleasure to work with our client and we most definitely look forward to additional opportunities to present his generosity and quality in future sales. The selections for this sale has never been offered at auction before and represents a healthy balance from the overall collection. The gradual accumulation of this collection was done the old fashioned way - with judgment and from known trustworthy sources: wine retail futures and winery direct.
Highlights include a mini vertical of DRC Assortments 1996-1998, vertical ranges from the great Bordeaux Cru Clasée vintages 1982-2003, a perfect Screaming Eagle vertical 1998-2008 in original wood cases, superb vintage spans from Super Cults Harlan, Bryant Family, Colgin, Sloan, Abreu and Marcassin. Rounding out the Super Cults is a colorful vertical of Sine Qua Non from this past decade. Lastly, we close this collection with an brilliant representation of the Syrah varietal. To be found on the following pages are verticals of Guigal's LaLa's and Penfold's Grange.

DRC
The simple mention of the venerable DRC in general and La Tâche and Romanée-Conti more specifically always elicits an ebullient response - memories are brought to life and experiences retold that truly express how drinking these wines can transcend one to another world. They are in a word, astonishing - a clear tribute to balance, finesse and refinement.
