Refer to our catalog for an explanation of these abbreviations. Wine notes: "The positively gorgeous, strikingly complex and highly perfumed nose offers up an array of both primary and secondary fruit elements along with ample spice, earth, sandalwood and game nuances. There is a distinctly cool mouth feel to the sleek, detailed and focused big-bodied flavors that are overtly powerful while delivering the same excellent depth as telegraphed by the nose on the driving finish."(96pts BH) Provenance: The Swiss Doctor Makes Another House Call: We welcome back one of the best cellars we know in Switzerland, with lots from this good doctor’s temperature-controlled cellar in Geneva. Introduced to the great wines of France by his father, he has spent decades building his collection. Highlights include a 1961 Pétrus and a magnum of 1964, 1928 Latour, and a Montrose duo from 1947 and 1959. Domaine Leroy is the star of Burgundy, with ten lots led by 1993 Musigny, while Italy offers 1955 Giacomo Conterno Monfortino and Vega Sicilia Único comes from 1962 and 1965. Swiss rarities from Gantenbein round out this remarkable house call. All wines removed from his temperature-controlled home cellar in Geneva.
