Provenance:
An outstanding collection of blockbuster wine, comprising the best of Bordeaux, Burgundy and the Rhône, in rock-solid condition, put together by a bon viveur and true aficionado. Recently removed from a town cellar and the cellar of a beautiful country house, both temperature controlled, the collection centers around benchmark mature vintages of Bordeaux, such as 1982, 1986, 1988, 1989 and 1990, together with Burgundy from the likes of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Rousseau, Ramonet and de Vogüé, together with sumptuous Rhône offerings of Beaucastel, Châteauneuf du Pape, Côte Rôtie and Hermitage from Chave and Jaboulet. Mostly available in full cases, in bottles and magnums, and in original packaging, the quality of the storage is reflected in the superb overall condition of the wine.
