5 Fine & Rare Wines It seems like the season just began, and yet here we are: the last live auction (in New York, at least, one more in Hong Kong) of the 2017 season. It s been an exciting year at Zachys. Not only are we having one of the most successful years ever at Zachys auctions, we ve seen the opening of our DC branch, our first auction in the nation s capital, as well as world records for many, many wines, numerous châteaudirect consignments from all over France, Spain, and Italy, and more. Jamie Pollack Global Managing Director Now on to this auction, one we ve been building for the past few months. At Zachys, we always like to make sure the Holiday Auction, is a big one to make sure you re well-stocked for the long winter months. We ve got so many marquis consignments in this auction that we had to trim a few names off of the cover so we had space for that lovely DRC. First, we ve got the cellar of the late, great Pittsburgh-based collector Marshall Katz, who collected for decades and traveled widely. He knew many of the world s great winemakers (see the photos of Mr. Katz with Jacques Seysses in these pages) and traveled to their home domaines with his wife Wallis. We ve also got a portion of wines from the cellar of legendary Rush frontman Geddy Lee. The wines in Geddy s offering were bought on release and stored impeccably in Toronto until this sale. We re also offering the cellar of one of the greatest golfers of all time: Raymond Floyd. Not only did Raymond win four PGA major tournaments (the PGA Championship twice, and the U.S. Open and the Masters) he was also a wine collector with varied tastes, all of which are on display in this catalog. Not only do we have these boldfaced names, it wouldn t be a Zachys auction without some châteaudirect consignments. We continue with our partnership with Domaine Clarence Dillon, this time with the rare whites of Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion, including mature older bottles and large formats. And, for the first time ever at auction, we ve got the master of Montepulciano, Emidio Pepe, with rare older bottles of his Trebbiano and Montepulciano d Abruzzo. And, if you enjoy the wines of California, we ve even got very rare and high-scoring large formats from Maybach, including the 100-point wines. This doesn t even account for all of the other wonderful consignments in this catalog. Please don t hesitate to be in touch with me or my team of specialists with questions on any of these consignments. If you d like to join us at Smith & Wollensky for the auction, please auction@zachys.com and to leave absentee bids bid@zachys.com. We ll see you on auction day! Cheers, Jamie Pollack 5

8 THE CELLAR OF RAYMOND FLOYD (LOTS 1-39) Golfing legend, Raymond Floyd, won 4 majors and 3 senior majors over the course of his Hall of Fame career. A fierce competitor for four decades, he won the PGA Championship twice, the Masters, and the US Open, cementing his place as an all-time great. He would eventually bring his competitive nature to wine, amassing some of the most sought-after producers on the market. A hobby that began with receiving bottles as gifts culminated with the construction of a beautiful cellar in his home, a few short miles away from Shinnecock Hills, the scene of his US Open victory, his fourth and final major. Much to the chagrin of his neighbors, Raymond Floyd has put his Southampton estate, humorously dubbed Mulligan, on the market. With the beautiful home goes the state of the art wine cellar, and so it is time he departs from a small portion of his trophies Don Zacharia Lot 30 8 ZACHYS tel fax bid@zachys.com zachys.com

9 BORDEAUX Château Lafite Rothschild For as long as anyone can remember, Lafite has been the most highly regarded wine in Bordeaux. From their very first book, published in 1845, Cocks & Feret have listed Lafite first, and it was ranked first in the famous 1855 classification of Bordeaux. Fite is an old French term meaning small hill, rise or mound; it is from this humble feature in Bordeaux somewhat bland landscape that France s most esteemed producer takes its name. The château itself is one of the oldest in Bordeaux, with much of it dating from the mid-sixteenth century. It was purchased by the wealthy Ségur family in the seventeenth century, but like much of the region at the time, the land was used for a variety of farming. Beginning in the 1670s, the Ségurs spent around twenty years converting a large portion of the land to vineyards. With Latour and Calon, as well as Lafite, under their ownership, the Ségurs began to find a market for their wines in London. It was first mentioned in the London Gazette in 1707 and soon became famous: by the early 1730s, it was a favorite of the Prime Minister, Robert Walpole. Lafite remained in the Ségur family until It was sold several times, finally to Baron de Rothschild in 1868, by which time there were some seventy-four hectares of vines. It was a new era of industrial wealth and the Rothschild purchase certainly added much celebrity to the area.

18 Harlan Estate Harlan Estate, owned by Bill Harlan, is a luxury, worldclass, Cabernet Sauvignon-based wine produced from a steep, terraced vineyard on the western side of Napa Valley, high above Napa s famous Martha s Vineyard. Approximately twenty-four acres are in vine and the yields to date have been very low. Bill Harlan, better-known as one of the principals of Merryvale Vineyards...has only one objective: to produce one of the greatest red wines of California. The wines are a blend of approximately two-thirds Cabernet Sauvignon and the remainder Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Bob Levy, Merryvale s winemaker and Michel Rolland, the well-known Bordeaux oenologist, are the architects behind these exceptional efforts. Stylistically the wines are the equivalent of a hypothetical La Mission Haut-Brion/Cheval Blanc blend. They are rich, powerful wines with unmistakable elegance, complexity, and purity.

20 SCREAMING EAGLE AND OTHER CULT CABERNET FROM A CALIFORNIA COLLECTOR (LOTS ) This meticulous collector has been collecting top level California wines, always buying direct from the producers. All of his wines have been stored perfectly and are in pristine condition. CALIFORNIA Screaming Eagle It s rare. It s expensive. And there s a mystique about it. But Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon is no pretender. It s the real thing, and it deserves to be considered among s prestige wines... You can t make wine this magnificent without fabulous grapes, and Screaming Eagle clearly comes from a spectacular vineyard on the east side of Oakville, near the Oakville Crossroad While ripening Cabernet (and smaller amounts of Merlot and Cabernet Franc) is routinely easy in this area, one of the trademarks of Oakville Cabernet is that the wines often display an herbal quality that manifests itself in a variety of subtleties, including hints of anise, sage, dusty berry, cedar and occasionally a whiff of new leather and tar. You find these shades of herb in Cabernets like Heitz Martha s Vineyard (grown on the west side of Oakville), with its signature minty currant personality, or Groth, which is one of the cooler sites on the valley floor. Screaming Eagle captures the best of all these elements. It also epitomizes exquisite balance, managing both to be enormously complex and concentrated, yet elegantly styled, with a smooth, polished texture. James Laube, Wine Spectator, November 3, 2005 Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon 2009 "Layers of intensely sweet, perfumed fruit are woven together with remarkable elegance and sheer polish... It is still striking, though...a translucent, weightless finish rounds things out in style...98."

39 T R E A S U R E S from the CELLARS OF THE LATE MARSHALL KATZ (LOTS ) As the Zachys specialist team walked into Marshall Katz s custom home cellar in Pittsburgh, PA, the first thing that struck them was that it was incredibly clean and well-organized (a rarity in this business). A pristine cellar, bordered with dozens of bottles enjoyed over the decades and photos of wine celebrities that Mr. and Mrs. Katz met in their travels. It was during those travels that Marshall first started collecting wine. 50 years ago, when he was 25, Marshall and his wife Wallis moved to Brussels to work at Papercraft, the business founded by Joseph Katz. They travelled to Europe s wine-making capitals Beaune, Bordeaux, Tuscany and so forth and tasted widely. They eventually returned to Pittsburgh and lived in their current house for over three decades though Wallis admits they almost had to move, because the wine collection nearly grew too big! Friendships built around wine persisted, however. They had a lasting friendship with the Seysses family (see the photo of Marshall and Jacques in the coming pages) and many other wine makers. In Pittsburgh, Marshall met once a week with a blind tasting group. Zachys spoke to several of Marshall s group, and a few common themes came to the forefront. First was that Marshall loved fine wine. As you peruse this collection, you ll see how a wine lover acquires wines. Burgundy, Bordeaux, even Madeira, Champagne and various Italian wines. Those who are interested in perfectlystored mature bottles, look no further. Whether it s Croft 1945 or Salon 1982, or Dujac, Leroy and Rousseau, this cellar is stocked. Further, the younger (younger meaning 8-12 year old!) vintages are here too. Though we at Zachys never met Mr. Katz, it s a pleasure to see that he knew the importance of buying and personally aging younger vintages to be confident in their provenance as they matured. Second was his generosity. Nearly everyone Zachys spoke to had a similar story: of Marshall opening the best bottles from his collection. No one could remember a bad bottle from the Katz cellar. Zachys is honored to present this cellar to the world. Bid with confidence. ZACHYS tel fax bid@zachys.com zachys.com 39

46 Marshall Katz wrote extensively about his travels in the wine world. His widow Wallis was kind enough to share some of these books with us, and they serve as a testament to Marshall s love of wine and food, and how he saw them both as essential to a life well-lived. They also show his mischeviousness and good-natured wit. As the aging process has begun its inexorable journey, we actually reduced our winery visits to a maximum three per day (imagine!), but unwittingly tasted more wines (261) than on any previous trip No doubt our tolerance has increased proportionately with our spitting talents and swallowing abstinence. Of course, I have had to sacrifice myself in the interest of more accurate wine notes, otherwise, how could one describe the finish? And in some cases, usually at DRC, there was a compelling need to re-confirm our findings, except for Montrachet where we threw all caution to the winds, and drank as much as they let us guzzle.

50 BURGUNDY Bonnes-Mares JF Mugnier cm, importer tag adhered to lightly torn label, cut capsule reveals fuly branded cork bottle per lot US$ Armand Rousseau One will get little argument to the assertion that Domaine Armand Rousseau is the finest estate in Gevrey- Chambertin... The vintages of the 1980s and 1990s at Domaine Rousseau have produced one of the greatest runs of profound Burgundy ever witnessed by any estate in the region, with the domaine producing legendary efforts in the widely recognized great years of the span from 1985 to Their two flagship bottlings of Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze have always ranked amongst the top dozen wines to be found in these vintages. Of the two Grand Crus at the pinnacle of the brilliant portfolio of Rousseau wines, the Chambertin Clos de Bèze tends to be the more exotic and spicy of the two wines, with glorious fruit tones of black cherry, plum, blood orange often augmented by notes of Gevrey s grilled meat, chocolate and exotic spices. The Chambertin is typically the slightly slower wine to unfold, with a more understated profile of plum, red cherry and strawberry, coupled with notes of cocoa powder, coffee, grilled meats and violets impeccably balanced, tangy and never come across as over-oaked. They are amongst the very greatest red wines to be found in the world.

53 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti The domaine is known for picking very late, sometimes, as in 1978, later than any other producers. They prune endlessly, make many passes through the vineyards at harvest and sort grapes rigorously both in the vineyard and at the winery. Average age of the vines is around thirty-five to forty-five years with yields typically around thirty hl/ha. The wines are aged in new French oak casks for approximately twenty months. There is usually only one racking and since 1985 the wines from all casks in each cru have been blended together prior to bottling to reduce bottle variation. Recently they have been moving towards biodynamic viticultural practices. Like many of the region s leading growers they have seen concrete evidence of soil and vine health improvement. It s hard to imagine that these wines could get better, but that is what separates them from the rest of the pack: an unrelenting pursuit for perfection in the Pinot Noir grape. In addition to the majestic reds, a white is also produced from a plot in Montrachet. Clive Coates, MW, "Côte d Or" Echézeaux Domaine de la Romanée-Conti cm, scuffed and wine-stained label, signs of old seepage "Very ripe and still quite fresh with black fruit mixed with spicy secondary aromas that lead to robust, slightly rustic yet stylish and rich flavors that still display some structure on the moderately long finish.

Winemakers Jeremy and Diana Seysses have been at the helm of the Domaine since They believe that the success of their wines lie in the team effort at the Domaine from their Chef de Culture in the vineyard, Lilian Robin, to Jeremy s brother, Alec, and father, Jacques, who contribute in the cellar. In 2009, the Domaine began its conversion to total biodynamic farming practices. The Domaine chooses to emphasize intensity over power and prides itself on producing individualistic wines that are elegant, delicate, and complex.

62 Leroy How do you determine great? Is it size? Is it quality? Is it price? Is it reputation (whatever that is)? Is it the amount of media coverage? However you do compute it, the greatest domaines of Burgundy today must be those under the control of Lalou Bize: the Domaine Leroy and her own Domaine d Auvenay. The estates of Jadot, Faiveley and Bouchard Père et Fils are far larger, that of Romanée-Conti the most splendid in terms of the percentage of Grand Cru terroir, but for the nobility of its wines, pride of place must go to Leroy and to Domaine d Auvenay. The sheer concentration, depth and intensity Lalou Bize manages to squeeze into her bottles is breathtaking. Lalou, born in Paris, was brought up in Meursault, in the mansion today occupied by her daughter Perrine. From the word go I was fascinated, she says. I was a cellar rat, watching and helping the cavistes rack the wines, taste them, bottle them. My mother kept calling me to come out of the cellar and play with my friends like a normal schoolgirl, but as soon as I could I crept back. In 1955 she persuaded her father to let her take over. She was twenty-three. He gave me carte blanche, she says. I started as I meant to go on. I bought finished wine, and only that which pleased me. Lalou is now happy at the Domaine Leroy and on her own. Look at my vines, she will say. Look how healthy and comfortable they are. And, being Lalou, she will not fail to point out a neighbor s plot of excessively abundant, uncontrolled growth. And come and taste the wine. Lalou s wines, according to her, are always extra. The one-time cellar rat is now a master in her own right, and the wines she produces are triumphantly brilliant. Clive Coates, MW, Côte d Or Lot ZACHYS tel fax bid@zachys.com zachys.com

71 RHÔNE JL Chave Considered widely as the quintessential Hermitage producer, Chave typifies traditionalism in both viticulture and his winemaking philosophy. The Domaine, begun in 1481, has been handed down from generation to generation. While Gerard Chave still maintains a presence, it is his son, Jean-Louis who is at the helm making some of the best wines in France, if not the world over. The family owns eight plots of land on the hill of Hermitage and in a time when single vineyard Cuvées are all the rage, still holds true to the belief that the assemblage of all of the grapes produces a more complex, powerful and artisanal wine. To Jean-Louis the soil differences found in each plot of land profoundly affect production which is why the expression of the blend is superior to the single vineyard. Chave is passionate about allowing the grapes to achieve complete ripeness via a long hang time on the vine and therefore the wines exude profound extraction as well as substantial alcohol. There is also a natural selection of low yielding fruit due to an average vine age of sixty years or more which adds greater intensity to the wines. The vineyards are farmed organically and the horse and plough are utilized to this day! Hermitage JL Chave 1989 Rhône 2cm or better, two scuffed labels "...tannic, formidably endowed...intensely fragrant...fullbodied, rich, concentrated style are unmistakable.

WS 6/ bottles per lot US$ The Hermitage Rouge is made of 100 percent Syrah while the Blanc is generally eighty percent Marsanne and twenty percent Roussanne. In vinification, contrary to modernist techniques once again, Chave eschews new oak, using only ten percent for the Rouge and mostly old oak and stainless steel for the fermentation and aging of the Blanc. The white Hermitage has the texture and richness of a great white Burgundy with immense complexity and the ability to age substantially. When serving the Blanc, Jean- Louis advises that they are not chilled too much, and are always decanted for a short period. The Rouge is a highlight. ZACHYS tel fax bid@zachys.com zachys.com 71

77 MADEIRA "I know of no wine of its class that can beat Madeira when at its best In fact, I think Madeira and Burgundy carry combined intensity and complexity of vinous delights further than any other wine. This note was penned by George Saintsbury over a hundred years ago and is the opening line in the intensive study of the wine region of Madeira, entitled Madeira, by Alex Liddell. Though this delectable elixir fell out of favor almost altogether in the twentieth century, the wine market has turned and a wave of distinguished connoisseurs has once again fallen in love with the beauty that is Madeira wine. The classical varietals of Madeira listed in order of driest to sweetest are Sercial, Verdelho, Boal and Malvasia (Malmsey). You may also find Terrantez and the nearly extinct Bastardo (of which D Oliveiras has stock of the 1927). Madeira traditionally is made by arresting the fermentation by fortifying the wine with ninety-six percent alcohol spirit and (with the exception of the austerely dry Sercial) leaving gradations of the fruit s sweetness. For vintage Madeira, the wine is then heated naturally in cask (large or small) in a warm area of the winery and allowed to age for an extended period of time. The gradual oxidation and evaporation achieved through the oak ageing and slow, constant heating of the wine allow the sugar, alcohol and dry extract in the wine to concentrate and maderized (burnt/oxidized) notes to evolve. After decades upon decades or even more than a century of time in barrel, the winemaker will then either move the Madeira into large glass bottles (demijohns) or bottle directly to halt the evolution and evaporation of the wine, once he feels it has reached perfection. The huge investment in time and care on the part of the winery produce a bottle that can then stand another lifetime of drinkability, truly a testament to one of the world s most brilliant wines. What is more, I doubt another type of vinous pleasure could be named that one could open tonight as an aperitif or for dessert and then come back to years later for another glass and find that same bottle completely sound!

101 Rare White Wines Direct From THE ILLUSTRIOUS ESTATES of DOMAINE CLARENCE DILLON PART III (Lots ) It s with great pleasure that we present the next installment in a series of auctions featuring the wines of the Domaine Clarence Dillon portfolio. Zachys has a long history with these wines both at auction, and of course at Zachys retail and en primeur. In fact, Don Zacharia started visiting the Châteaux in the 1970s. During the summers of 1982 and 1983, Jeff Zacharia worked at Haut-Brion and lived with Jean-Bernard Delmas, and his son Jean-Phillipe Delmas. During that time, Jeff was able to witness the birth of the acclaimed 1982 Haut-Brion and Domaine Clarence Dillon s acquisition of Château La Mission Haut-Brion. Jeff, and Zachys, have worked closely with HRH Prince Robert de Luxembourg and the whole team at Domaine Clarence Dillon ever since. We ve offered wines from the Domaine Clarence Dillon portfolio in both New York and Hong Kong, to great success. With this offering, we re delighted to offer the rare white wines from the Clarence Dillon portfolio. Those who know the Dillon portfolio know that the whites are the rarest wines made by each Château. Older bottles are nearly impossible to come by. And this offering features Haut-Brion Blanc from 1985, 1989, and mags of 1993, 1997 and La Mission Haut-Brion Blanc in numerous vintages, and Laville Haut-Brion 1982 and 1989 together in one lot. This is without a doubt the greatest single offering of white wines from Domaine Clarence Dillon at auction ever. ZACHYS tel fax bid@zachys.com zachys.com 101

107 TROPHY WINES of BORDEAUX, BURGUNDY, THE RHÔNE, ITALY, AUSTRALIA, & CALIFORNIA (LOTS ) The wines in this consignment are the property of a great friend in wine whom I have known, and occasionally tasted with, since the 1970 s. He inherited his taste for and discernment of the great wines of Europe from his father, who was an avid collector of Bordeaux. He began purchasing wines from top brokers in England while in graduate school in the early 1970 s, and continued to collect wines on release after moving back to the U.S. in the late 1970 s, stepping up his purchases dramatically in the 1982 Bordeaux vintage. He is a good friend and would not mind me saying that he is fanatical about storage and conditions. Some of my greatest tasting experiences have been with bottles he has pulled from his cellar, including La Chapelle 1961, and La Mission Haut- Brion 1975 and 1982 (examples of which are offered in this consignment). All of the bottles offered below were carefully selected and inspected by the consignor before being sent for sale. Bid with confidence that these bottles will give you tasting experiences at wine s most exalted level. Fritz Hatton Lots 782, 790 & 791 ZACHYS tel fax bid@zachys.com zachys.com 107

120 MATURE BAROLO & BURGUNDY FROM A CONNOISSEUR & REPEAT CONSIGNOR (LOTS ) It s rare to come across a cellar of mature Gaja, red label Giacosa, Aldo Conterno and Giacomo Conterno for one reason: when you ve got them, you don t give them up. But every once in a while, someone shares them, as is the case with this particular connoisseur. Rarely do opportunities to acquire 1982 Colonnello, 1978 and 1990 Monfortino, and 1989 Cascina Francia come to the auction block. We know that there s a philosophical link between Nebbiolo and Pinot, which is why this offering also features rare 1995 & 2002 La Romanée from Bouchard, and 1999 and 2002 Corton-Renardes from Domaine Leroy, as well as some gems from Méo-Camuzet, Rousseau, Fourrier, Lafon & Roulot.

134 ICONIC ITALIANS AND ROBUST RHÔNES COURTESY OF A NORTHEASTERN DOCTOR (LOTS ) I have had the privilege of working with this collector for over two decades. He always purchased only the very best wines in multiple case quantities. After hugely successful offerings from his vast Bordeaux collection in April and May, this collector has turned his eye towards a thinning of his Italian and Rhône wines. The Rhône section is devoted to the wines of the highly talented Marcel Chapoutier, while the Italian section features the wines of Bruno Giacosa, including an amazing four cases of the Barbaresco Santo Stefano di Neive Bruno Giacosa 1996, and the incredible Barolos from Sandrone. The majority of this collection was purchased from Zachys retail during the years and was first stored at New York Fine Wine Storage and then transferred via refrigerated truck to the consignor s temperature-controlled home cellar where they remained until removal for auction. I can t recommend this consignment highly enough as it has everything one would want: great wines with perfect provenance and storage. Dave Sutro RHÔNE ITALY Chapoutier Ermitage Le Méal Blanc Chapoutier 1999 Rhône one nicked label "Notes of pear liqueur intertwined with fino sherry, peaches, minerals, nuts, and licorice are offered in an amazingly concentrated, super-extracted style that manages to be delicate as well as precise " WA 4/ bottles per lot US$ Ermitage Blanc Cuvée de L Orée Chapoutier 2003 Rhône Parcel: lots "Opulent, viscous, and full-bodied, at first glance it is seemingly fragile and over the top, but it boasts extraordinary freshness and liveliness as well as monster concentration and a finish that lasts over 60 seconds...99."
