Refer to our catalog for an explanation of these abbreviations. Wine notes: "...exhibits tar-laced spicy black fruit aromas. This magnificent wine combines the generosity of fruit found in the finest offerings of the vintage with a power, depth, structure, and concentration that is typically lacking in the 2000s. Its intense and muscular flavor profile coats the taster's palate with waves of super-ripe plums and blackberries whose effects linger throughout its regal, sweet finish."(95pts) Provenance: Swiss Savoir-Faire: Blue-Chip Bordeaux and Burgundy. A renowned Swiss collector, with many thousands of bottles in reserve, shares seventy-six lots of blue-chip Bordeaux and Burgundy, much of it in original packaging. Margaux is the backbone of the Bordeaux, with full cases of 1994 and 1998 and nine magnums of 2005 in banded OWCs, joined by a magnum of 1961 Lafite and two bottles of 1937 d’Yquem. In Burgundy, Rousseau delivers twelve bottles of 1999 Ruchottes-Chambertin Clos des Ruchottes before DRC takes center stage with three-magnum banded OWCs of 2006 and 2007 La Tâche and a 2006 Romanée-Conti. Seven lots of Coche-Dury shine among the whites. All wines removed from professional storage. Refer to original catalog header sections for additional information on provenance when available.
