Provenance:

An exceptional collection of mature vintages from the most sought-after fine wine regions of the Old World, assembled by a Distinguished Connoisseur. Bordeaux reigns supreme, with a remarkable lineup spanning decades, from the 1970s to the early 2000s. Highlights include First Growths in the iconic vintages such as 1985, 1989, 1990, 1996, 2000 or 2009, as well as Right Bank legends, including Petrus 2006, Lafleur 1995 and Cheval Blanc 1990. Burgundy is represented by some of its most revered Domaines, among them Domaine Robert Arnoux, Domaine Dujac, Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé and Domaine Leflaive, encompassing a wide range of vintages from the 1990s to the early 2000s. The impressive selection continues with leading names from the Rhône, Champagne and Italy.

All wines were acquired at Sotheby’s and Christie’s auctions or from a reputable UK merchant, and have been professionally stored ever since.
