8 Auction 1809 A STUPENDOUS CELLAR OF RAREST EUROPEAN AND NEW WORLD WINES

Transcription

1 A STUPENDOUS CELLAR OF RAREST EUROPEAN AND NEW WORLD WINES Property of a Long-Time Collector and Friend I m privileged to have known the owner of this cellar since the early days of my auction career (yes, since the early 1980s!). Those were gregarious times, and his zeal for great wine led him to build one of the best and most extensive cellars in North America. In fact, this is just a small slice. This amazing collection proffers such a rich bounty that it s a challenge to highlight: six decades of Bordeaux from top châteaux, rarest Burgundy from all of the most highly-sought estates, a broad selection of single vineyard Côte-Rôtie and other Rhônes, esteemed Italian classics and top-flight Californian wines. There s something for everyone here, so be certain to allot ample time to peruse these vinous treasures. All wines have been carefully sourced and meticulously stored. - Michael Davis Château Cheval Blanc 1955 St-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé (A) Top shoulder level; slightly damp stained label; capsule cut by HDH to reveal fully branded cork...deep in colour...entrancing bouquet of dark berries, Xmas cake, mint, iodine and seaweed - very focused and upstanding...lovely tobacco infused black fruit...

107 THE GREATEST DRINKING CELLAR OF ALL TIME INCLUDING LEROY AND ROUSSEAU IN QUANTITIES THAT MIGHT NEVER BE SEEN AGAIN All removed from a beautiful temperature- and humidity-controlled home cellar I first visited this consignor s cellar when he and his wife hosted a wonderful homemade meal which we enjoyed in the kitchen of their lovely, historic home. That night the three of us drank 2000 Corton-Charlemagne from Coche-Dury, 1990 Chambertin from Rousseau, and 1985 Clos-St-Denis from Ponsot. I was a bit flattered that he would open such a lineup, but as the night wore on I learned that these are the kinds of wines the consignor drinks every night. When he took me into his cellar I saw a wall of Coche, a wall of Rousseau, a wall of Romanée-Conti. I had never seen anything like it in my life. Since the '70s, he has been buying the top wines from Burgundy and cellaring them for drinking. And drink them he has it would be hard to imagine that anyone in the world has ever consumed as many of these great wines as our consignor. Most were simply consumed with his wife over a home-cooked meal. Our consignor threw away most of his OWC and OC as he intended to drink every bottle he bought and didn t have room for them, so most are long gone. The bottles were binned (many of those bins are worth hundreds of thousands of dollars) and he drank from the top of the pile. He assembled the greatest drinking cellar I have ever seen, simply because those are the wines he likes to drink. At this stage of our consignor s life he has slowed his wine drinking to mere superhuman levels, so when a coveted piece of art became available he decided to part with a small percentage of his wines to finance the acquisition. Please enjoy this extraordinary piece of this dazzling cellar. - Ben Nelson

149 Lots 2725, 3047, 3057, 3066, 3081 A MONUMENTAL CELLAR OF FIRST GROWTH BORDEAUX INCLUDING AN ABUNDANCE IN LARGE FORMAT, ALONG WITH EXTREMELY RARE 19TH CENTURY MADEIRA It s an honor to be entrusted with this offering, and that appreciation is enhanced by my long-standing relationship with the owner. He is among the first clients with whom I developed a genuinely close friendship, some 35 years ago. I have shared countless irreverent evenings with him and his exuberant wife, both in Chicago and their home city. We are usually the loudest table in restaurants. We ve celebrated anniversaries and birthdays. I ve watched their children grow up. Whether it s an intimate dinner or a gathering of 50, he never hesitates to open First Growth Bordeaux. It might be Mouton 1986 or a Latour from the 1960s, but never in a boastful way; he simply doesn t want anyone to waste time drinking boring wines. With that in mind he s held back a substantial trove of wines for the future, including 15 or 20 cases of Mouton Yes, I hope to remain his friend. What follows is a tribute to Bordeaux. All the wines were carefully sourced, many as futures, and all have been perfectly kept in both home and off-site storage. I ve emptied a plethora of bottles with him over the decades, and I m hard pressed to remember any disappointments. - Michael Davis AUSONE Château Ausone 2001 St-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé (A) Three base neck level; eight slightly scuffed labels...provocative, floral perfume of crushed stones, raspberries, blackberries, crème de cassis, licorice, and smoke...an extraordinarily intense effort... elegant and well-balanced...
