23 MAGNIFICENT WINE from the GRAND COLLECTION of a GLOBETROTTING GOURMAND (LOTS ) A longtime collector, great friend of Zachys and a widely traveled gourmand (though without the waistline to match) has chosen Zachys to offer a portion of his superb wine collection of European, American, and Australian gems as part of a judicious downsizing, which still leaves him with more than enough trophy wine to enjoy and share with friends. The hallmark of this collection is the focus on marquee producers, from First Growth Bordeaux, to finest Burgundies from DRC, Jayer, Rousseau, and Coche-Dury, Chave in the Rhône, Harlan, Colgin, and Shafer in California, and Hill of Grace and Grange in the Barossa. There are a handful of extreme rarities, including Jayer and Rousseau from the 1978 vintage, La Mouline 1976, Único 1962, and Grange Most of the pre-2000 vintage wines in this collection were purchased in the secondary market between fifteen and twenty-five years ago, including Zachys and Zachys-Christie's auctions, and placed in long term commercial storage from which they have been removed for this sale. If rated by Michelin, this wine collection would unquestionably earn three stars. ZACHYS tel fax bid@zachys.com zachys.com 31

33 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.

36 RHÔNE 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! 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.

48 HARLAN 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.

51 A JAW DROPPING COLLECTION of FINE WINES (LOTS ) From one of the country's great collectors comes this stunning selection of rare Bordeaux and Burgundy. The Bordeaux alone would make for a sale highlight. The First Growths from the best vintages: 1990 Latour, 1989 and 1990 Haut- Brion, 2000 Mouton (the list goes on) make up a significant part of the cellar. But when you couple it with the Burgundy, a truly impressive cellar takes shape. The mature Rousseau alone is one of the most impressive selections we've seen at auction in recent memory. The Musigny from de Vogue is equally impressive. Rouget, Roumier, Dugat-Py: you name it the Grands Crus start coming and never stop. The white wines are just as impressive, with Lafon, Leflaive, Sauzet, Ramonet, and Raveneau all sharing an alreadycrowded stage. The majority of this offering was purchased on release from reputed NY area retailers and stored in multiple professional storage facilities. ZACHYS tel fax bid@zachys.com zachys.com 59

70 VOGÜÉ Delicate, feminine and fragrant, the epitome of finesse: lace, silk and taffeta; violets and dog-roses; raspberries and blackcurrants with a finish of liquorice; amplitude and generosity; intensity without a trace of hardness. All this has been said by those attempting to describe the taste of Le Musigny. Le Musigny consists of two sub-climats, Le Musigny itself and at the same altitude next door to the south, Les Petits-Musigny. The lion's share, more than seven hectares, almost seventy percent, and including the totality of Les Petites-Musigny, belongs to the Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé. This estate proclaims itself the Domaine des Musigny. The domaine also comprise 2.75 hectares of Bonnes-Mares, located entirely in the southern, Chambolle end of the climat, sixty ares of Amoureuses, 1.80 hectares of premiers crus (Baudes and Fuées) and a small parcel of village wine. Wines of the domaine are defined as classy and fragrant, very exciting indeed. The domaine is in good hands. The future is bright.

93 BURGUNDY 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.

98 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.

147 MOUTON, MOUTON, MOUTON DIRECT FROM THE CHÂTEAU'S CELLARS (LOTS ) This offering presents a rare opportunity to buy a case vertical of Mouton Rothschild, starting with the legendary Magnums of 2008 and two cases of the 100-point 2010 are stand outs en route to recent vintages. This collector is a member of the international wine trade, and all of the following cases have been held directly in the cellars of the Château, only released and shipped to NY for this auction. BORDEAUX CHÂTEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD Mouton, like much of Pauillac in the sixteenth century, was part of the sprawling Ségur estate. In the mideighteenth century the land that is now Mouton Rothschild was acquired by Baron de Brane, who changed the name to Brane-Mouton. Brane sold it in 1830 to an M Thuret; while it was already a notable Château, first appearing in a Christie's catalog in 1834, Thuret did not make maintenance of the Château a priority and resold it in The purchaser was Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild, at the time head of the English arm of the wealthy Rothschild family. While Mouton was always a highly regarded wine, a big change came when in 1922, when the twenty-oneyear-old Baron Philippe decided to run the Château fulltime. An innovator from the start of his tenure, in 1924 he decided that in order to guarantee quality the entire production would be bottled at the Château, and from 1934 he numbered each bottle released. Also, of course, he started the tradition of works of art on Mouton labels, featuring the famous Carlu ram's head from 1924 to 1926, and since a hiatus from then until 1945, each label has either been designed by a major artist or featured a tribute to a significant event in the Château's history. Perhaps his most significant achievement was persuading the French Minister for Agriculture, Jacques Chirac, that Mouton was and had always been a First Growth that had been wrongly classified. So, in 1973, for the first and only time, a revised edition of the 1855 classification was released with Mouton finally ranked, next to its Pauillac neighbors Lafite and Latour, as a First Growth.

160 BORDEAUX 2000 VINTAGE What is the definition of a great vintage? I would postulate that at least one of the ingredients is that it should be consistent hierarchically; that the lesser wines should be ripe, rich, balanced and full of fruit; that one should be able to pick with confidence among the ranks of the bourgeois, the petits châteaux, and in the satellite appellations. Bordeaux has had four such great years in the last thirty: 1970, 1982, 1990 and, now In these vintages not only are there great wines at the top of the hierarchy, not only is the vintage a success across the whole region, from St Émilion and Pomerol to Pauillac and St Julien, but there are delicious examples to be found in the lesser areas such as Côtes de Bourg, Lalande-de-Pomerol, Fronsac, Montagne-St-Émilion and Côtes de Castillon, as well as in the Médoc north of St Estèphe... There is, of course, another way of looking at the proposition. Are the top 2000s going to be as good as the top 1990s, 1982s or 1961s? Here the question is moot, the response is almost impossible. We won't really be able to answer until 2000s are themselves mature. And we still need to wait for the 1990s to reach their peak. My gut feeling is that nothing will surpass the finest 1961s. They seem to be unique. But I am perfectly happy to agree that 2000, at its best, is as good as 1982 and the interest in the vintage was huge. Never has a vintage sold out so fast. The fruit was healthy. It was concentrated. Alcohol levels, and perhaps surprisingly, acidity levels as well, were high. The skins were thick. The potential tannins very high. All the elements were in place for a great red wine vintage... across Bordeaux both geographically and hierarchically, we have wines of very good colour, considerable but at present largely hidden ripe tannins, deliciously concentrated, very pure, intense fruit and very good acidity. The wines have volume, dimension, class and complexity. There are many châteaux which make wine considerably better than they had done a decade earlier. Overall the selections have been severe. A much smaller proportion of the total has been declared as grand vin than in similar years a decade or more ago. So in many cases we have a better result than has ever been achieved before. Others have made the best wine since Overall it was a splendid vintage.

169 JOSEPH PHELPS Unlike most Napa winemakers and vineyard owners, Joseph Phelps did not come to the area to make wine; he arrived when the construction company he ran, Hensel Phelps, won the bid to construct Souverain Winery (now Rutherford Hill). He fell in love with the area and in 1973, purchased the land that became the original part of Joseph Phelps Vineyards. For many years, these vineyards were supplemented with purchased fruit from other top Napa growers, including the famous Eisele Vineyard. Today, though, in keeping with the longstanding goal of the family to use only estate grown fruit, all but a small amount of syrah comes from their own holdings. In 1974, Phelps decided to release a wine that profoundly affected the direction of California winemaking, by releasing Insignia, the first Napa wine to blend Bordeaux varieties in the same way as the Bordelais themselves. Insignia is routinely rated as the best of the so-called meritage Bordeaux-style blends by critics including Robert M. Parker, Jr. and the Wine Spectator.

175 GAJA In the mid-nineteenth century the Gaja family began producing wine in Piedmont. Giovanni Gaja established the winery and Angelo, the fourth generation, joined the family firm in Angelo Gaja, born in 1940 and the present director of the family firm, has a degree in enology from Alba as well as a masters in economics. In 1974 he went to California, where he presumably fell under the spell of the barrique. Gaja has achieved unequivocal success aging his Barbarescos in small, new oak barrels, where the wine takes on a certain subtlety and suppleness without losing the personality of the Nebbiolo grape. Gaja is the largest private owner of vineyards in the Barbaresco zone, with 153 acres of vines in Barbaresco, Treiso, and Alba. They own fourteen different vineyards in Barbaresco and Treiso that make up their Barbaresco normale. Besides this regular Barbaresco, Gaja bottles three individual crus. Of the three, Costa Russi matures the soonest. It is the most open, with a sweeter taste and more intense aroma. Sori Tildin is more closed and concentrated; it is firm in texture and holds more in reserve. Sori San Lorenzo is the hardest of all in its youth, requiring age to show its real quality. It is the slowest maturing of the crus as well as the longest lived. Wasserman, Italy's Noble Red Wines Lots ZACHYS tel fax bid@zachys.com zachys.com 183

183 The SUPERLATIVE COLLECTION OF RICHARD & SUSAN ROGEL offered by THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN TO BENEFIT THE ROGEL CANCER CENTER (LOTS ) ZACHYS tel fax zachys.com 191

184 Let's set the stage: Longtime supporter of everything Michigan, Rich Rogel is at a dinner in Detroit in the early 90s with the one-and-only Bob Parker. By this point, Rich was already interested in fine wine Bob had helped him start buying in the late 80s. But at this particular dinner, they were talking about the 1989 Haut-Brion, a wine that, not long after, Bob would give 100 points (a score he would reaffirm in the Wine Advocate in 1992, 1993, 1994, 1997 and 2002). The 1989 Haut- Brion became a favorite of Mr. Rogel's, and he bought heavily. Now, you'll find quite a bit of pristine 1989 Haut-Brion in this offering all, of course, bought on release after that brief chat with Bob. Rich Rogel always had a taste for older wines, which is probably why he never drank that 1989 back when he bought it. He started feeding this interest with select purchases from Davis & Company Chicago and Butterfield & Butterfield in California (later called Bonhams & Butterfield). He also bought locally in Michigan, but Davis was the main source. Most importantly, his collection was put together during a relatively short period of time: around 8 years. Rich hasn't added to this collection in 25 years. It has rested, maturing slowly under temperature control, for this auction. Now, as a component of a pledged $150m to the University of Michigan Cancer Center (now the Rogel Cancer Center), and because he doesn't drink wine any more, Rich has decided to donate his entire collection to the University, which in turn has consigned it to Zachys. The wines were all stored in the Rogels' custom built, temperature and humidity-controlled wine cellar in Colorado. As usual, the collection was inspected in situ by a team of Zachys Specialists, accompanied by Michael Egan, who spent an entire week in the cellar. The wines were transported via dedicated, temperature-controlled truck to Zachys' White Plains warehouse for this auction. By bidding in this auction, you are supporting the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center, which is committed to improving the health and well-being of people who have or are at risk of getting cancer. As a National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer center, more than 500 members work to prevent cancer, improve outcomes for those diagnosed, and improve quality of life for cancer patients and survivors.

187 CHÂTEAU HAUT-BRION Haut-Brion has the longest history of all the First Growths. It was even mentioned by Samuel Pepys in his diary entry of April 10,1663, when he was dining at the Royal Oak Tavern in Lombard Street, London:...and here drank a sort of French wine called Ho Bryan that hath a good and most particular taste I never met with. The famous Pontac family set up the estate in the first portion of the sixteenth century. Wealthy and well connected, they had the means to promote the wine in fashionable places, and by the early 1700s it was as well known as a wine of the highest quality. While parts were split off, the estate stayed with the family until it was passed to Joseph Fumel in He was largely responsible for creating much of what we see today, including the buildings, the gardens and the general layout of the property. He famously hosted a visit from Thomas Jefferson on May 25, 1787, and became Mayor of Bordeaux three years later. With its popularity waning under a succession of different owners, the estate was finally put up for auction in 1836, where it was purchased by the Larreau family. Two years later, in 1838, they managed to acquire a further piece of the estate previously lost through inheritance laws. Although it was included as a First Growth in the 1855 classification of Bordeaux, difficult times lay ahead. A further succession of owners and the depression of the early 1930s forced another sale. This time, successful American financier Clarence Dillon stepped up, and for a little under $200,000 walked away with the estate. It remains in the Dillon family today.

188 THE SUPERLATIVE COLLECTION OF RICHARD & SUSAN ROGEL OFFERED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN TO BENEFIT THE ROGEL CANCER CENTER 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. Château Lafite Rothschild 1945 upper-mid shoulder, torn label, short capsule reveals vintage branded cork "Just about every note over the years refers to a glorious fragrance which seems to unravel itself after 15 or 20 minutes in the glass...a glorious mouthful..." MB 4/ bottle per lot US$ Château Lafite Rothschild 1947 bottom neck or better, one heavily bin-soiled label, marked labels, one nicked label, two different importers, signs of old seepage, rebouchée au Château en 1986 "Combining richness and charm...its appearance mellowing as well as was its bouquet.

189 CHÂTEAU LATOUR Some of my fondest wine memories are of drinking wine bottles of the renowned Château Latour. It is, without a doubt, one of the greatest wine estates in the world. While its history goes well back to the fourteenth century, Latour began to be clearly defined as one of the greatest wine estates in the world in the mid-nineteenth century, and amazingly, It has kept that position for the last 150 years. Their wines, which are known for their power, richness and longevity, are sought after by collectors and wine lovers throughout the world. As Robert M. Parker says of Château Latour in The World's Greatest Wine Estates, The wine produced here has been an impeccable model of consistent excellence, in great, mediocre, and poor vintages. For that reason, many have long considered Latour to be the Médoc's finest wine Latour remains one of the most concentrated, rich, tannic, and full-bodied wines in the world. In 2000, I had the wonderful opportunity to taste over twenty-five vintages of Château Latour, including fourteen wines older than 1961 and four from the nineteenth century. It was an evening I will never forget. The wines were so rich, alive and fresh. What an extraordinary experience it was to be able to taste the 1900 and the 1899 side by side and discuss the differences, or to argue whether the 1955 or the 1949 is showing better right now (at my table we all thought the 1955 had the slight edge). In the end we tasted Latour from a 125 year span and although there was a lot of discussion about which were the better wines, the final conclusion of everyone in the room was that, Latour makes some of greatest wines that any of us have ever tasted.

191 CHÂTEAU MARGAUX Perhaps the grandest of the Bordeaux châteaux, Château Margaux is the epitome of style and refinement. At Château Margaux one has truly arrived at the heart and soul of Bordeaux, the world's most renowned wine region. For centuries before the French Revolution, the château was owned by the Lestonnac family. The revolution, though, saw the estate's owners beheaded, and when the heirs were unable to pay the costs of running the château, Margaux was put up for auction. The successful bidder, the Marquis de la Colonilla, demolished the old château, and in 1802 work began on the grand château we know today. The Château was sold several times until it was acquired by the Ginestets, longtime shareholders who finally became sole owners in 1949, with the purchase financed by the sale of their St Emilion property, Clos Fortet. However, First Growth châteaux are expensive to run, and to finance the operations of the estate, the owner sold off the vineyards of Dufort Vivens in the 1960s and transferred Cos d'estournel to his sister in Even those moves, though, were not enough, and collapse of the Bordeaux market in the early 1970s forced Ginestet to sell the château in 1976 to Greek supermarket magnate Andre Mentzelopoulos. A serious oenophile, he was also a major shareholder in the French wine firm, Nicolas.

194 THE SUPERLATIVE COLLECTION OF RICHARD & SUSAN ROGEL OFFERED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN TO BENEFIT THE ROGEL CANCER CENTER PÉTRUS Pétrus today is a little over eleven hectares, including five hectares purchased in 1969 from neighboring Château Gazin. The vineyards have clay topsoil and gravelly subsoil, allowing good initial water retention but excellent longer term drainage. The vines are old, around forty to fifty years, planted with ninety percent Merlot and five percent Cabernet Franc. To increase concentration the vines are pruned extensively and a green harvest is performed. At harvest time, nearly two hundred workers pick the grapes at their peak of balance and ripeness. Sometimes up to four passes are needed but if pressed, as in 1982, the entire harvest can be completed in just one day. The grapes are partially destemmed and after a fairly lengthy maceration period, sometimes almost a month, the wine spends twenty months in new oak before being fined (but not filtered) and bottled. Pétrus is a classic example of careful vineyard management and winemaking yet the result leaves evidence of something even greater. These methods combine with exquisite terroir for Merlot to create something that is, in good vintages, not only earthshatteringly tasty, but distinctive, lending the name Pétrus majesty because of its quality but also its inimitability.

198 THE SUPERLATIVE COLLECTION OF RICHARD & SUSAN ROGEL OFFERED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN TO BENEFIT THE ROGEL CANCER CENTER CHÂTEAU LA MISSION HAUT-BRION Although the histories of Château Haut-Brion and La Mission are entwined, both have always been separate entities, sharing a common family name. It is only since 1983 that they have shared the same proprietor when it was taken over by the owners of Haut-Brion On November 2nd 1983, the present owners acquired La Mission after the owner Francis Dewavrin was unable to resolved internal family disputes over the way the property was managed and it marks a convergence of histories between Château Haut-Brion and La Mission, though only in the sense that they share the same owner: Clarence Dillon. He enlisted Jean-Bernard Delmas as Château-manager and there followed a period that has consolidated La Mission's position as one of the greatest estates, hovering just outside the First Growths. Their commitment to innovation and improvements has been a catalyst for many estates in the Graves region to improve their wines, particularly with respect of clonal selection research. In 1987 the old chai was renovated, a new state-of-the-art cuvier was installed and a new bottling line was implemented in It must be emphasized that the estates are treated as separate entities, even though at some point the vines of both run side-byside. In 2003 Jean-Bernard retired and handed the reins over to his son, Jean-Philippe Delmas. The Wines Certainly since the arrival of Jean-Bernard Delmas the style of wine has improved: the wine is more pure and the volatile acidity has been eradicated. At its best (the 1966, 1975, 1998) La Mission is a massive, tannic behemoth that has more in common with Château Latour than Château Haut-Brion. It is a powerful, sturdy wine with firm tannins and admirable longevity This is definitely one of the most intriguing wines in Bordeaux: the appeal of La Mission is that it seems to avoid the vagaries of wine-making trends and wears its heart on its sleeve. This is a classic wine in every sense of the word and it can make a seamless match with food.

240 Property of a GENTLEMAN (LOTS ) This offering of wines is focused primarily on Bordeaux, but the selection of Burgundy, Guigal's La Las, and a smattering of rare SQN is strong as well. The best part of this cellar is that the youngest Bordeaux is a couple of decades old, and the great vintages: 1990, 1989, 1982, and so on, are plenty. The First Growths are present, but this is truly a drinker's cellar, with wines at every price point. Leroy, DRC, Dugat, and others make up an excellent Burgundy section. Rare mature Rayas and the La Las are in supply as well. The wines in this collection were sourced mainly from NYC-area retailers (Sokolin) and auction houses (Christie's) and stored in a temperatureand humidity-controlled custom cellar until removed by Zachys specialists for this auction.

251 AN AMAZING COLLECTION OF RARE SQN (LOTS ) From a custom home cellar not far from NYC comes this enormous selection of mailing list SQN. Rare older vintages are present here, but what's most impressive are the large formats. It's not often we see this many magnums (Just for the Love of it, Lil E, Into the Dark, others) and to see rare double magnums is truly incredible. You get the idea. This offering is a chance to bid on wines that will likely never or least for another few years come up for auction again. All wines in this offering were bought from the SQN mailing list by the current consignor and haven't left his cellar until being removed by Zachys in temperature-controlled transport for this auction. CALIFORNIA SINE QUA NON In the jargon of English speaking wine nerds, they are called garage wines, garagistes in Spanish, vins de garage in French, and delicious, expensive, and impossible to find wines by the mainstream consuming public. They are some of the most exciting efforts being produced in winedom today are these limited production gems The truth is in the bottle, and garage wines often provide compelling drinking experiences. The ultimate garage wine from southern California emanates from a rusty warehouse that appears to be on the wrong side of the railroad tracks running through Ventura. The winery's name is Sine Qua Non (literally translated from Latin means without which one cannot.), and as the proprietors' (the husband and wife team of Elaine and Manfred Krankl) indicate on the label of their sumptuous 1997 Syrah called Imposter McCoy, the truth is inside Elaine and Manfred Krankl are both very involved in the production of artisanal wines from their small garage/warehouse...their first serious commercial venture was a Syrah called Black and Blue, which was made at Napa's Havens winery in This was followed by an assortment of oddly-named offerings under the Sine Qua Non moniker. These included the Queen of Spades in 1994, Red Handed, The Bride, and The Other Hand in 1995, Omadhaun and Poltroon, Eclipse, Against the Wall, and The Complicator in 1996, and Twisted and Bent, Imposter McCoy, and Veiled in The funky labels have all been reproductions of Manfred Krankl's artwork, and the wines are put in heavy, antique bottles that seem intentionally designed to provoke lower back pain. Most importantly, the wines are undeniably distinctive, individualistic, and brilliant. In short, this is wine geek code for they taste real good. Elaine Krankl looks for accessibility, fullness, and length, as well as a wine that is completely alive. She accuses her husband of thinking more long-term, and he tends to agree, claiming that she has a more visceral reaction to wine quality, which he admires. Manfred claims to be the analyst, trying to project what the wine will taste like in the future. They make no secret (and are in agreement) about their favorite producers. First and foremost, these include the late Jacques Raynaud of Château Rayas in Châteauneuf du Pape, followed by Henri Jayer in Burgundy, California's Helen Turley, France's Gérard Chave, François Raveneau, and Marcel Guigal, and Italy's Elio Altare After a few forays into northern California, all the fruit since 1994 has come from Santa Barbara, the region they believe has the greatest potential for Rhône Valley-styled wine (known in the vernacular as Rhône Rangers ). Until they began making wine at their own garage/warehouse facility in 1997, they produced wine at the Ojai Vineyard in Ojai and at the Alban Vineyard in San Luis Obispo. The Syrah utilized in The Queen of Spades, Red Handed (blended with Grenache and Mourvèdre), The Other Hand, Against the Wall, and Imposter McCoy has largely come from the Alban Vineyard, although this has recently been supplemented by grapes from both the Bien Nacido and Stolpman Vineyards. The Roussanne and Chardonnay have come from the Alban Vineyard, and the Grenache from the Stolpman Vineyard. Their sweet wines are made from sources such as the Brander and Alban Vineyards. Their small quantities of Pinot Noir are exported from the Northwest, shipped in reefer (temperature-controlled) trucks from Oregon's Willamette Valley Shea Vineyard Sine Qua Non Midnight Oil 2001 (3) one with signs of old seepage 2001 magnum (1) 1938 above 3 bottles & 1 magnum (1.5L) per lot US$ Sine Qua Non 2002 original wood assortment case Just For The Love Of It Syrah magnum (1) More Than a Number magnum (1) 1939 above 2 magnums (1.5L) per lot US$ ZACHYS tel fax bid@zachys.com zachys.com 259

257 SPANISH SHOWSTOPPERS (LOTS ) Zachys is thrilled to once again offer a portion of this collection. Almost entirely acquired on release direct from the estates, to look back on the meticulously kept purchase records of these bottles is to look directly into history. Decades of Único, some particular rarities from vintages such as 1941 and 1962, as well as 1965 from Mag! Stored in perfect, temperature- and humidity-controlled conditions, bid with absolute confidence on this spectacular offering. SPAIN VEGA SICILIA Vega Sicilia, often called the Lafite of Spain for its elegance, is among the oldest extant wineries in Spain and remains among its most celebrated. Toribio Lecanda purchased 2,000 acres of farmland from the Marquis de Valbuena in 1848, but it was not until 1864 that his son, Eloy, began to convert it to viticulture by planting Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Pinot Noir. Originally, he made brandy, and even before it was a winery Vega Sicilia was appointed to be the brandy supplier to the royal family of Spain. Vega Sicilia Unico ( unique ) and Valbuena both date from 1915, when the vineyards had recovered sufficiently from phylloxera to permit great wine to be made. Unico, made only in outstanding years, is typically mostly Tempranillo, with the balance Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec and Merlot. It spends at least seven years in barrel, and at least three in bottle, before release, and in some vintages, it is aged for astonishingly long periods before it reaches the market. The 1970, for example, was not released until 1995, and magnums did not follow until 2000! The wine lives up to its designation as unique. It is intensely fragrant, complex on the palate but also extremely concentrated, with very high acidity to balance the richness. Occasionally, the winery will release a small quantity of wine designated Reserva Especial, a blend of two or three Unicos; these bottlings are generally considered to be of the same high quality as the single vintage releases.
