Fine Wine
MAY 23 - 31
Our May Fine Wine Auction showcases the best of Old and New World wines in our largest auction to date with nearly 700 lots.
Highlights include many lots featuring the iconic 1982 Bordeaux vintage, along with a wide assortment of blue-chip Bordeaux cuvées in their original wood. We are also excited to bring attention to twelve bottles of 1998 Château Lafite Rothschild, a great selection of white and red Burgundies, an abundance of Super Tuscans, a great selection of Porto, and iconic Californians. With such a wide selection of thoughtfully curated wines there is truly something for every Oenophile.
To help make it easier to find the vintages and cuvées you’re looking for we have put together a searchable spreadsheet, and as always, the Wine Finder tool is available for you to enjoy.
