Wineauction Nr. 417 – "High Flyers"
Dear Wine Lover,
This auction will also take place live-online on Thursday and Friday, starting at 10 AM each day.
On Thursday, we start again in Bordeaux with many original wooden cases of excellent, young
trouvailles – including a 12-bottle case of Haut Brion 2018, a double magnum of Margaux 2018,
but also 12 well-preserved bottles of Petrus 1976.
The sparkling continues with flights of fancy from Champagne: rarities from Jacques Selosse,
two 3-litre bottles of Jacquesson, a bottle of Krug Clos du Mesnil 1988, four lots of the
sought-after Champagne Salon Le Mesnil Blanc de Blancs, Roses de Jeanne and six bottles of
Ulysse Collin will delight connoisseurs.
From California, an impressive collection of Monte Bello wines from Ridge will go under the hammer. A double magnum of Imposter McCoy from Sine Qua Non is complemented by four more lots of Manfred Krankl’s rare creations.
We end the day with sought-after single malts, including 30-year-old Ardbeg from 1967, Ardbeg Dun Eideann from 1974 and 32-year-old Bruichladdich.
We start fresh and cheerful on Friday with the Burgundy wines. All the famous names are represented. We would particularly like to mention two bottles of Les Amoureuses from Jacques-Frédéric Mugnier, a bottle of Romanée Conti DRC from 1956, as well as a large number of wines from Roumier, Rousseau and d’Auvenay.
We move on to Piedmont. Here we auction off a real rarity: a 12-liter bottle of Roagna Barbaresco Crichët Pajè 2013 in the original wooden crate for the next big party. The infamous “No Barrique – No Berlusconi” Barolo from Bartolo Mascarello will also be going under the hammer.
Madeira Malvazia by Barbeito from 1834, as well as a few other gems from the green island in the Atlantic, will make the hearts of connoisseurs beat faster.
Back home, we are proud to be able to present many great Grisons wines – Gantenbein in large
quantities, Donatsch, Fromm, Obrecht and Studach.
Should you need any additional details or information about a wine, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be happy to answer your questions.
If you are unable to attend, we would be delighted to receive your pre-bids online or by e-mail or post, whereby the latter must reach us by June 18th at the latest.
We look forward to a lively auction on June 19/20.
With my best regards
Luca Höfer
