拍品 1 ALL WINES IN THE SALE LYING AT DHL GLOBAL FORWARDING (HONG KONG) LIMITED



A REMARKABLE COLLECTION OF FINEST QUALITY BORDEAUX ALL OFFERED IN ORIGINAL WOODEN CASES

The following lots 1 to 41, represent what all fine wine drinkers dream about - a 'one-owner' selection of the finest quality wines in pristine and perfect condition, still packed in their original wooden cases. The history and storage of this exceptional collection is also well recorded, with every case being stored since original purchase in the cool underground cellars of Octavian at Corsham in the rural English county of Wiltshire. The purchase record indicates that none of these cases have ever left UK storage until the temperature-controlled shipment to Hong Kong for this sale. There are truly very few genuine opportunities now to find wines of this quality and provenance in the trading-obsessed global market of today. An enticing prospect and absolute must for any Bordeaux lover, in particular the five cases of Lafite-Rothschild 1982 which open the sale.

Tasting Notes: Most recently, double decanted and served 5 hours later: still deep and velvety, with a virtually opaque core; the bouquet already aroused and holding its fragrance; medium-sweet, delicious flavour and persistence. Tamed tannins. Last noted Dec 2004 ****(*) M.B.

The 1982 Lafite possesses a dark, dense ruby/purple colour with only a subtle lightening at the rim. Spectacular aromatics offer jammy cherry and black fruits intertwined with lead pencil, mineral, and smoky wood scents. Powerful for a Lafite, this wine unfolds to reveal extraordinary richness, purity, and overall symmetry in addition to stunning flavour depth and persistence. The finish lasts for nearly a minute.
