Provenance:



Highlights from one of Europe’s most extensive and impressive collections, with an extraordinary focus on mature stocks from France’s most rarefied estates. Containing only the most desirable names in the wine world, this consignment includes a wonderful range of mature, top vintages of DRC, Petrus and the First Growths, across a range of formats. Outside of France, it is worth drawing attention to the 6 extraordinarily rare magnums of Screaming Eagle, which are so rarely seen in the secondary market. All of these wines have been kept under lock-and-key in one of the world’s leading professional, secure storage facilities, before transfer to Sotheby’s for this auction.
