3 April 2010 Our team is thrilled about this May 8th auction. As you will find as you turn the pages that follow, it is a sale full of gems from all major regions, but Burgundy collectors will be particularly interested! The sale opens in just the right way, with a choice assortment of exceptional Bordeaux (lots 1-96), including full cases of each of the first growths in original wooden case. Also included is an impressive run of other top wines from the 2000 vintage (lots ). There Paul Hart CEO Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. has been an obvious attention to detail in this cellar and bidders will want to take advantage of this quality offering.

5 Colgin Wine Dinner with Ann Colgin & Joe Wender Friday May 7, :30pm Reception 7:00pm Dinner NoMI Restaurant 800 N. Michigan Avenue Chicago, Illinois $795 per person (all inclusive) Colgin Cellars was in the vanguard of the California cult phenomena. The wine created a groundswell of interest with its debut 1992 vintage, and with the gifted talents of the likes of Helen Turley, Mark Aubert, David Abreu, and Alain Raynaud on board, Colgin soon became one of the most heralded wines ever produced in California and captured the attention of collectors all over the world. Perhaps most influential was the vision and energy of founder Ann Colgin, whose artistic sense and standards of excellence served as the inspiration and guiding force from the onset. Join us for this rare opportunity to spend an evening with Ann and Joe as we taste Colgin Cellars groundbreaking cabernet sauvignon from Herb Lamb and Tychson Hill Vineyards, the Bordeaux styled Cariad that debuted in 1999, and her latest efforts, IX Estate Red and IX Estate Syrah.

119 PROCEDURES FOR BIDDING & PAYMENT CONDITIONS OF SALE Bidders are strongly encouraged to read the Conditions of Sale contained in this catalog that state the terms governing the purchase of all property sold at auction. BIDDER REGISTRATION Bidders attending the auction will be required to register for a bidding paddle prior to the auction. We strongly encourage new bidders to pre-register with us at least 48 hours prior to the auction. Please be prepared to provide bank references, indentification and a major credit card. Please contact Kelly Aluise at or kaluise@hdhwine.com to complete the pre-registration process. A Registration Desk will be staffed at Tru beginning one hour prior to the beginning of the session through the completion of the auction session. Major credit cards and/or driver s licenses will be required as identification. Bidders must be at least 21 years old and may be required to show proof of age. A valid credit card (MasterCard, Visa or Discover) must be presented with all bids. Bidding will be by paddle only, and all transactions are subject to the Conditions of Sale. DESCRIPTION OF WINE To the best of our knowledge, all wines benefited from proper storage prior to being delivered to our temperature and humidity-controlled cellar. Every bottle has been carefully inspected by our experts and described as accurately as possible at the time this catalog went to press. Buyers of older and more fragile wines must make proper allowances for natural variations of ullage and general condition. Wines less than 30 years of age have been determined by HDH, based on our professional judgment, to be in generally excellent condition unless otherwise indicated. As outlined in the Conditions of Sale, no returns will be accepted. FORMAT OF CATALOG Wines are typically grouped by cellar and are preceded by a general heading, providing specific information about the provenance of the wines. The description of wine is followed by a lot number and quantity offered. A comprehensive index is provided at the end of the catalog. TASTING NOTES We have been given permission by several of the world s leading wine critics to use their tasting notes in our catalogs. Due to space limitations, the notes in the catalog have been edited. The entire note, and notes from other critics (where available) may be viewed by viewing the catalog via our website, AUCTION ESTIMATES Auction estimates are provided for each lot, with all figures based on most recent auction market results for the same or comparable wines. Rarity and condition are at all times taken into consideration. Estimates do not include Buyer s Premium or sales tax. BIDDING In the saleroom, bidding is by registered paddle only. All wine is offered by lot. Bidding increments are provided on the Absentee Bidding Form in the back of the catalog. Consignors and their agents are strictly forbidden from bidding on their own property. ABSENTEE BIDDING Those who wish to bid but are unable to attend the auction are encouraged to submit absentee bids. Absentee bids are treated in the strictest of confidence and at all times lots are acquired at the lowest possible price. In the event duplicate bids are received, the earliest bid takes precedence. Therefore absentee bidders are urged to bid as early as possible. PLEASE NOTE: Either/or bids and bid sheets with a limit applied are executed on the floor by an HDH staff member and therefore do not take precedence over an unconditional absentee bid, regardless of the date and time the conditional bids are placed. Absentee bids are accepted through our website, by telephone, fax, or mail. An Absentee Bid Form is provided in the back of the catalog. Bids should be submitted in ample time for proper processing. A valid credit card must be submitted along with bids. We reserve the right to require written confirmation and/or bank references for all bids, and may, at our discretion, perform credit card pre-authorizations up to the total amount of your bids or request a portion of the total amount of the bids as a deposit. Absentee bids may be submitted on the day of the auction, however, we cannot guarantee these bids will be executed, though we will use every means available. We recommend absentee bids be submitted prior to 5:00pm CST the day before each auction session. Bids must be submitted in consecutive numerical order, using the bidding increments listed on the Absentee Bid Form. If bids are received with incorrect bidding increments, we reserve the right to round the bids down to the next appropriate increment. PHONE BIDDING Live telephone bidding is available on a very limited basis, and with advance arrangements only. Bidders who wish to bid live by telephone must submit a list of lots on which they wish to bid 48 hours before the auction. We are unable to accept calls in the saleroom and therefore we must be supplied a telephone number where the bidder can be reached on the day of the auction, along with an alternate telephone number. Bidders are encouraged to leave a written bid as well, which would be executed only in the event our agents are unable to make contact by telephone. Although we strive to accommodate all requests for this special service, there are a limited number of telephones and staff members available. Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. tel: fax: Auction

PAYMENT Invoices are mailed or ed to successful bidders by the first business day following the auction, except when the buyer is a licensee, in which case their invoice will be routed through a properly licensed Illinois wholesaler.

We accept wire transfers, checks drawn on U.S. banks, money orders, direct debit via ACH initiation (please contact Kelly Aluise at to set up), as well as MasterCard, Visa and Discover. Payment by credit card is limited to a total of $25,000 per buyer per auction. All successful bids will be processed through a properly licensed retailer in Illinois.

Buyers wishing to pay for purchases via wire transfer should direct funds to: JP Morgan Chase Bank N.A. Chicago, IL Routing Number: Swift Code: CHASUS33 Account#: If payment has not been received by the 21st day following the auction, HDH Wine Co. reserves the right to charge the buyer s credit card on file for any amounts still due as well as any resulting late fees and other costs incurred, including credit card processing fees. Payments received after this 21st day will be subject to a late fee equal to 3% of the total purchase price. Additional late fees equal to 3% of the total purchase price may be charged for every 14 days past the initial 21 day period. NOTE: Buyers from whom full remittance is received by Friday, May 14th (by check or wire transfer only) will receive a 1% credit to apply toward purchases in the next auction. The credit does not carry forward beyond the next auction, and it is not transferable. BIDDERS WHO ARE LICENSEES Licensees who intend to bid should provide well in advance of the auction a photocopy of the license issued by their state s liquor authority. Licensees within the state of Illinois should also provide us with their Illinois Business Tax Number. Provided this information has been supplied to HDH prior to the auction, within three business days of the auction the successful bids for licensees will be routed through a properly licensed Illinois wholesaler, who will charge the buyer applicable taxes and gallonage fees. Payment by credit card is prohibited for Licensee invoices. TAXATION At all times, taxation is determined by point of delivery. We are required by law to collect the appropriate state and local taxes from purchasers who collect their lots in Chicago, unless the purchase is deemed to be non-taxable. All conclusions as to taxation are to be determined by Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. in its sole discretion. All non-taxable transactions must be completely documented prior to release of purchases in one of the following ways: a) Those licensed to sell alcoholic beverages may submit their sales tax number and proceed with being invoiced through our designated Illinois wholesaler. b) Out-of-state deliveries are non-taxable provided they are made by carrier licensed by the Interstate Commerce Commission. 120 Auction 1005 Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. tel: fax:

121 COLLECTION, DELIVERY & STORAGE LIMITS ON IMPORTATION Bidders/Purchasers are cautioned that many states impose restrictions on the quantity of alcoholic beverages which may be purchased and brought into its jurisdiction by a Purchaser from another state. In some instances, special permits or licenses may be required for the Purchaser or shipper. Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. will not assume any obligation or responsibility for applying for or obtaining permits or licenses. SHIPPING Our shipping policy is based on the following understanding with the Bidder/Purchaser: 1) Bidder/Purchaser acknowledges that title to wines purchased passes to the Bidder/Purchaser at time of purchase or at the hammer. The Bidder/Purchaser authorizes Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. to choose a common carrier on behalf of the Bidder/Purchaser which will act as the Bidder/Purchaser s agent. 2) Bidder/Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to be responsible for all applicable excise, use and sales taxes due their state or country related to the purchase of these wines. 3) Bidder/Purchaser warrants that he/she is at least 21 years of age and is purchasing the wines for personal use. 4) Bidder/Purchaser shall be responsible for the shipment of these wines being received by a person at least 21 years of age. Orders can usually be processed and prepared for shipment within 48 hours of receipt of payment and any applicable taxes or permits. Orders exceeding 250 necks will require additional processing time. Prior to shipment HDH will notify the Purchaser of a proposed ship date, if a ship date has not been established by HDH, the order will remain in storage until the next ship date becomes available. If an expedited ship date or special instructions are required, the Purchaser must contact HDH to schedule such arrangements. It is recommended that Purchasers collect their wines whenever feasible, as commercial shipment can be risky, especially in the case of older and more fragile wines. Neither Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. nor its agents can assume responsibility for any deterioration resulting from shipment, which includes, but is not limited to: scuffed labels, cracked wax capsules or minor seepage. Insurance will be automatically provided at a nominal charge, which will cover solely breakage or loss from time of purchase or at the hammer to time of delivery. Wines must be inspected by the Purchaser upon receipt and any loss or breakage must be noted on the Shipper s documents. Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. must be notified of any breakage or loss claims within 24 hours of delivery. Should this insurance coverage not be desired, a written waiver of insurance and any subsequent claims must be received prior to the shipment of the wines. Without insurance, loss or damage due to any cause will be at the Purchaser s risk. In most instances, once a shipment is sent, you will receive an from the carrier which provides the tracking number and details of your shipment. WEATHER WATCH Transporting wine in extreme weather conditions and temperatures, even by Overnight service, may seriously damage wines. We define these as temperature readings or predicted temperatures of greater than 80 degrees or less than 20 degrees Fahrenheit. HDH performs regular weather checks prior to shipment. These checks confirm appropriate temperatures will be held at the point of origin, along the probable route, and at the final destination. During periods of extreme weather we strongly advise against transport by any means. During these times we are pleased to provide complimentary short-term storage until better conditions prevail. We refer to this type of hold as a Weather Watch; if your order is placed during a Weather Watch period, it will not be scheduled for shipment until the end of the moratorium. If you wish to ship regardless of weather conditions, we ask that you contact the shipping department to arrange shipment of your purchase and that you agree to a Weather Waiver releasing HDH from any liability from weather related damage. Once we have received your Weather Waiver, your shipment will be sent on the agreed scheduled date, regardless of the weather conditions or temperatures. Should a Weather Watch moratorium arise during a previously scheduled shipment date, HDH will contact you via to arrange an alternative shipping date. PACKING At times we may be required to re-pack wines which are in their original wooden cases. OWCs, when listed as part of the lot, will automatically be shipped unless you instruct us otherwise. A $10 per OWC fee may be applied to shipping charges which require re-packing into shipping boxes. OWCs may ship separately via Ground Service. When providing shipping instructions, buyers should specify that they do not want the OWCs if that is their preference. COLLECTION OF PURCHASES All wines are stored in our temperature and humidity-controlled cellar in downtown Chicago.
