A PANORAMIC WEALTH OF GREAT WINES FROM AROUND THE WORLD The following 300 lots represent an intriguing cross-section of a diverse and deep collection of a true connoisseur. His collection grew organically from reading the major publications on Bordeaux and California Cabernets, then onto Burgundy, Rhone and Piedmont as well as the more boutique California producers as his tastes grew. With the exception of very few of the older vintages, these wines were acquired upon release, many through the mailing lists that he had the foresight to join early on, including Screaming Eagle. Now the bottles burgeon the limits of the cellar, necessitating this sale. Verticals, horizontals and interesting mixed lots provide excellent opportunities for tastings and instant collections that would otherwise take years and numerous purchases to encounter. Though painstaking at stretches to ensure proper cataloguing in the midst of massive sheer volume, it was a pleasure to pull such gems from a carefully acquired and lovingly maintained collection. During this process, our collector related a good many delightful stories of his enjoying this varied collection and still maintains a significant portion for future tales of the vine and table. Property of a long-time New Jersey Collector. Removed from a temperature-controlled home cellar by Christie's specialists. Justin Christoph Château Latour--Vintage 1982 Pauillac, 1er cru classé Both lot levels: into neck "most recently, emitting 'warm, ripe, cedary and redcurrant scents. Surprisingly sweet, very amenable despite its tannic grip. Delicious. Last noted at the La Réserve tasting, April 2001 ***(**) Twenty glorious years ahead ." MB, Vintage Wine 1 magnum per lot
