This beautiful cellar was assembled by an avid wine collector with a taste for the fine and eclectic, spanning First Growth Bordeaux, 1er and Grand Cru Burgundy, with a twist of Rhône and Champagne Icons. All the wines were recently removed from a temperature-controlled private cellar and purchased from reputable sources. The interests of this passionate collector are well-evidenced here, with representation across all the greatest Burgundy Domaines together with the most recent sought-after names.
