Once again, a great opportunity for French and foreign wine lovers to acquire rare and magnificent bottles, mainly from several very knowledgeable private cellars. In addition to the splendid local cellars, the wines come from different regions of France such as the Grand-Est, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, not forgetting Paris and Nouvelle-Aquitaine.
In the Bordeaux region, we will find the legendary Pomerol vintage, Petrus, with 20 vintages often housed in original wooden cases (6 bottles of 1988 estimated at 10000€ - lot 1011, 6 of 1995 estimated at 11000€ - lot 986, 6 from 2000 estimated at 24000€ - lot 1100, 3 from 2005 estimated at 12000€ - lot 1101, 3 from 2012 estimated at 6000€ - lot 1103, not forgetting cases of 3 magnums from 1995 (12000€ - lot 1045) and 2007 (12000€ - 1102) and numerous single bottles from great years.
In addition to the many cases of first growths classified in the region, the major references of the Médoc and Libourne regions will be represented and will accompany the Bordeaux-Primeurs cases (12 from 1989 estimated at 9000€ - lot 1001 and 12 from 1996 estimated at 8000€ - lot 1002), the Duclot Collection (9 bottles from 2005 estimated at 8500€ - lot 1121) and the exceptional Carré d'As of 8 magnums (estimated at 25000€ - lot 1000).
Highly prized throughout the world, the best Burgundy wines will be the object of covetousness with those of the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (let us mention 2 rare bottles of Romanée-Conti 1990 estimated for a total of 30000€ - lots 300 and 987 and 2 Montrachet 2005 estimated at 11000€ - lots 371 and 372) among the 76 wines on offer. We will find the sublime Pinot Noirs of the Roumier, Rousseau and Mugnier estates and the Chardonnays of the Domaine d'Auvenay (3 bottles of Criots-Bâtard-Montrachet 2006 estimated at 14000€ - lots 928 to 930) or those of the Domaines Leflaive, Lafon and Coche-Dury (many Corton-Charlemagne and Meursault-Perrières).
Great Rhône wines such as Château Rayas or Ermitage Cathelin de Chave, exceptional champagnes, fine foreign wines and old spirits (Saint-James 1885 rum) will enable everyone to find what they are looking for at any price!
