Thursday, April 14, 2005

5:30 - 7:30pm

At The Chicago Athletic Association12 South Michigan Avenue, Chicago

Join us as we taste an extensive array of wines from two of the best Burgundy vintages of the pastdecade. The stars of the evening will be Red Burgundy from the stunning 1999 vintage, and WhiteBurgundy from the equally remarkable 2002 harvest. Both vintages have been widely hailed by criticsand consumers alike, and these wines are rapidly disappearing from the retail market. This will bean excellent opportunity for collectors to focus on these wines and determine which ones should bein their cellar before they completely vanish.

Among the white wine producers, you can expect to see examples from many of the most respectednames of the Côte de Beaune, including Ramonet, Guy Amiot, Bonneau du Martray, Michel Colin-Deleger, Pierre Matrot, and Henri and Jean Boillot.

Likewise, Red Burgundy enthusiasts will delight in a range of wines from Leroy, Domaine Ponsot,Vincent Girardin, Daniel Rion, Domaine des Lambrays, Mongeard-Mugneret, Claude Dugat, HubertLignier, Bertrand Ambroise, Jean Grivot, and Alex Gambal.

Attendance will be limited and by reservation only. Given the passion of Burgundy collectors, we anticipate this event to sell out quickly. Advance reservations are available now, at $75 per person.

To make a reservation or for further information, please contact Jacqueline Cellini at 312.482.9996, or [email protected]

1979 Château MargauxMargaux, 1er cru classeTwo base neck, one top shoulder level“...a classy, elegant example of Margaux possessing a darkruby/purple color, and a moderately intense nose of sweet blackcurrant fruit intermixed with minerals, vanillin, and floral scents.The wine is medium-bodied, with beautifully sweet fruit. This lin-ear, more compressed style of Margaux possesses a good inner-core of sweet fruit, and a charming, harmonious personality...”(93 points) Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd edition (1998)

4 3 bottles per lot $320-450

1981 Château MargauxMargaux, 1er cru classe“In weight and texture, the 1981 Margaux is closest in style tothe 1979. It is an outstanding wine, even in the company of themonumental wines of 1982, 1983, and 1986, although it doesnot have the power and weight of these vintages...” (91 points)Robert Parker, Bordeaux Book, 3rd edition (1998)

1982 Château Branaire-DucruSt-Julien, 4me cru classeFour base neck, one top shoulder, two very high shoulder level;slightly damp stained labels“Full red-ruby. Aromas of cherry, leather and meat, with dustyand minty nuances. Then surprisingly sweet and silky in themouth; classic dry-but-sweet claret flavors framed by firmacids and solid, ripe tannins. Not fat but certainly palate-coatingand long. This got better and better with aeration.” (89 points)Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar, July/August 2002

Sample available at pre-auction tasting6 9 bottles (original wooden case) per lot $550-750

1982 Château Cos d’EstournelSt-Estephe, 2me cru classe“Full medium red. Spicy aromas of redcurrant, strawberry andplum. Ripe, lush and gentle, with a mineral character contribut-ing to the wine impression of structure and leavening the wine’ssweetness. Very long, ripely tannic finish shows slightly elevatedalcohol but comes across as firm nonetheless.” (94 points)Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar, July/August 2002

7 12 bottles (original wooden case) per lot $1600-2200

1982 Château Grand-Puy-LacostePauillac, 5me cru classeThree base neck, six top shoulder level“Full, deep red. Reticent aromas of plum, currant, mint andcedar. Dry, penetrating and stylish, with very primary flavorsand noteworthy vinosity. Classic claret intensity and grip with-out any excess weight. The flavors build impressively on thefirmly tannic, youthfully tough finish...” (91(+?) points)Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar, July/August 2002

Pure, subtle, highly aromatic nose of cur-rant, cedar, eucalyptus and exotic oak. Wonderfully silky andopulent, with utterly compelling inner-mouth perfume andchewy depth. Showing spectacularly today and hiding its rock-solid underlying structure. The great finish shows extraordinaryaromatic complexity and subtlety, along with big, dusty, fine tan-nins. This wine is a no-brainer: a clear knockout now and capa-ble of going on for another two or three decades.” (97 points)Stephen Tanzer, International Wine Cellar, July/August 2002

1989 Château Tertre-RoteboeufSt-Emilion“... exotic, opulent, unctuously-textured ....A great Le Tertre-Roteboeuf, the 1989 is a massively-endowed wine with fullblown aromas of bacon fat and sweet fruit. As someone oncesaid, tasting these wines is akin to swallowing liquefied choco-late-covered, overripe cherries.

On the palate, there is a veritable smorgasbord ofearthly and heavenly delights. Needless to say, it is very rich,very opulent, and very concentrated. Red burgundy and redwine do not get any better than this. My guess is that it willpeak between 1990 and 2005, as it is a bit more forward thaneither the La Tache or Richebourg.” (100 points) RobertParker, Burgundy Book (1990)

As the 1985 whiteBurgundy vintage has matured, it is interesting to hear someproducers say that the wines are "too clean" and "too healthy."Nevertheless, this young, light to medium straw-coloredMontrachet appears to require another decade of aging before amore realistic assessment can be made on where this wine isgoing.

1992 Dunn Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon, Howell Mountain

Napa ValleyChipped wax capsules“What makes the 1992 California Cabernet Sauvignon vintageso incredible is that one of its hallmarks is the voluptuous,opulent, and succulent nature of the fruit. In Dunn’s offerings,that translates into wines that are massive and rich, but withsweeter, more expansive, chewy mid-palates. Both of theseCabernets are 20-30 year wines, but I suspect the softerNapa cuvee will be drinkable in 5-7 years.” (97 points) RobertParker, Wine Advocate #101, October 1995

This is not a Pétrus that can be approached in its youth (i.e.,the perfect duo of 1989 and 1990)...A formidably endowed winewith layers of extract, this is a huge, tannic, monstrous-sizedPétrus that will require a minimum of 10 years of cellaring...Look for the 1995 Pétrus to last for 50+ years.” (96 points) RobertParker, Wine Advocate #115, February 1998

It possesses an exuberant, flamboyant bouquet of roastedcoffee, cassis, smoky oak, and soy sauce. The impressive 1996Mouton-Rothschild offers impressive aromas of black cur-rants, framboise, coffee, and new saddle leather. This full-bod-ied, ripe, rich, concentrated, superbly balanced wine is para-doxical in the sense that the aromatics suggest a far moreevolved wine than the flavors reveal. Anticipated maturity:2007-2030. By the way, the 1996 blend consists of 72%Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 8% Cabernet Franc.”(94 points) Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #122, April 1999

AN OUTSTANDING GROUP OF CALIFORNIANWINES FROM THE CELLAR OF A WEST COASTCOLLECTOR, RANGING FROM SUCH TIME-HONORED CLASSICS AS MARTHA’SVINEYARD 1985 TO NEW GENERATION CULTRARITIES

Wines Removed from Long Term Temperature andHumidity-Controlled Storage

1985 Heitz Wine Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon, Martha’s Vineyard

Napa Valley“In some tastings this wine has been controversial because itwas alleged to have a damp, woody, musty character. In theMarch tasting (my seventh look at this brilliant wine), I found itonce again to be clean and hardly controversial - unless explo-sive richness and ripeness, as well as gobs of sweet fruit pre-sented in a full-bodied, powerful style are objectionable...Themint/eucalyptus character...was presented in a subtle fashion.Expansive and chewy, with superb ripe fruit and concentra-tion, this wine should continue to drink well for 10-20 years.”(94 points) Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #98, April 1995

447 1 bottle per lot $120-180

1994 Colgin Cabernet Sauvignon, Herb Lamb VineyardNapa Valley“...In addition to their power, richness, and fullness, another hall-mark of the Colgin wines is the vibrant blueberry, boysenberry,cassis character that roars from the glass. The potentially perfect1994 Cabernet Sauvignon is a totally dry wine, but the sweetnessand taste of this wine’s fruit is akin to a savory blend of a chocolate-covered, blueberry/cassis-filled candy bar and vanilla ice creammelting in the mouth...one of the most exciting and remarkableyoung Cabernet Sauvignons I have tasted! It should drink well foranother 25-30 years. Damn, I adore this wine!” (96 points) RobertParker, Wine Advocate #108, December 1996

448 6 bottles per lot $2000-2400

2000 Colgin Cabernet Sauvignon, Herb Lamb VineyardNapa Valley“...a singular, exotic bouquet of flowers (geraniums?) and aminty undertone intermixed with copious quantities of blueber-ries, cassis, and tar. Dense, rich, and full-bodied, it is a strongeffort that should drink well for 10-12 years.” (91 points)Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #150, December 2003

449 12 bottles per lot $2000-3000

2001 Colgin Cabernet Sauvignon, Herb Lamb VineyardNapa Valley“Deep ruby. Aromas of black raspberry and bitter chocolate.Sweet, lush and dense, with powerful flavors of raspberry,blueberry, licorice and dark chocolate. Quite broad butuncompromisingly dry, like a Medoc wine. Finishes with sub-stantial firm tannins...” (93(+?) points) Stephen Tanzer,International Wine Cellar, May/June 2004

450 12 bottles per lot $2400-3500

1998 Penfolds GrangeSouth Australia“The 1998 Grange will be legendary...an extraordinarilyintense nose of creme de cassis intermixed with blueberryand floral notes. As the wine sits in the glass, aromas ofmeat, plums, and cola also emerge. It is a seamless effortwith sweet tannin, well-integrated acidity, sensationalextract, and layer upon layer of blackberry and cassis fruitthat stain the palate and fill the mouth. Its harmony, fresh-ness, and remarkable length (the finish lasts nearly a minute)suggest an all-time classic. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2030.”(99 points) Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #148, August 2003

1997 Quinta do Noval Nacional, Vintage Port“The 1997 Nacional is a legend from this pre-phylloxera vine-yard. The color is a saturated black/purple. The nose revealsfloral scents intermixed with coffee, blackberries, tar, cassis,licorice, and chocolate. Extremely full-bodied, but less mas-sive and seamless, this spectacular Nacional will reach itsplateau of maturity quickly, where it will remain for 2-3decades. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2040.” (100 points)Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #126, January 2000

440 12 bottles (original wooden case) per lot $7000-9000

2000 Dow Vintage Port“An opaque blue/purple color (typical of this vintage's topofferings) is followed by a strikingly provocative aromatic dis-play (flowers, licorice, blackberries, and cassis). This firmly-structured, classic, tightly-knit, restrained port exhibits bril-liant purity as well as impressive intensity...a beautiful, clas-sically structured port that will age gracefully. Anticipatedmaturity: 2008-2030.” (94 points) Robert Parker, WineAdvocate #143, October 2002

2000 Fonseca Vintage Port“...Hugely rich and dense, with compelling sweetness and plian-cy but also sound framing acidity. Extremely youthful and verylong on the aftertaste. Finishes with suave but strong tanninsand excellent grip and thrust. Like the best examples of the vin-tage, this won't injure your palate if you broach a bottle today,but it's structured for extended aging.” (95 points) StephenTanzer, International Wine Cellar, January/February 2003

In retrospect, I suppose I wassomewhat surprised by just how great the 1990 performed incomparison with the profound 1991. I mistakenly thought the1990 was a Medoc, with its cedary, spicy, tobacco, blackcur-rant-scented nose, sweet, full-bodied flavors, high tannin, andlow acidity.

Ifthe rigid oenologist who fashions these wines, Monsieur Millet,would throw away his filters, they probably could have been evenmore exciting. However, these 1990s are stunning enough to con-vince me that the resurrection of Comte de Vogue has begun.Interestingly, Millet has shown some flexibility and is now doing acold maceration of 5-7 days before starting the fermentation, whichhas no doubt contributed to the black/purple color of these wines.”(90 points) Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #83, October 1992

1990 Vosne-Romanée, Beaux Monts Domaine LeroyCôte de Nuits, 1er CruSlight signs of seepage; chipped wax capsules“Lalou Bize-Leroy’s Vosne-Romanee-Les Brulees and Vosne-Romanee-Les Beaumonts are both sensational wines, butthey could not be more different. The Vosne-Romanee-LesBeaumonts is a more subtle, more classic example of a toppremier cru Vosne-Romanee. It does not soar from the glasswith the exotic, smoky, roasted character of the Les Brulees,but it does offer authoritative and persistent aromas of blackfruits, herbs, underbrush, and sweet oak. While it displaysexceptional concentration of flavor in the mouth, it is support-ed by higher levels of tannin and is a more structured,denser, richer wine than the Les Brulees. Since the tanninsare more noticeable, it should be cellared for 7-8 years, andshould last for 30 or more.

Still dark purple-colored, with only ahint of the flamboyant Mouline aromatics, this thick, super con-centrated, full-bodied, tannic La Mouline is loaded with fruit,massive, and full-bodied, but still in need of time to fully shedits cloak of tannin.

1991 Côte Rôtie, La Turque GuigalRhône“The 1991 La Turque behaves as if it wants to be the northernRhone’s answer to Richebourg and Musigny. However, with theexception of Domaine Leroy, you cannot find a Richebourg orMusigny with the richness and complexity possessed by this awe-some wine. The saturated dark purple color is followed by a winethat is surprisingly lighter in the mouth than its great flavor inten-sity and rich extraction would suggest. It is a winemaking tour deforce in that Guigal has been able to cram phenomenal levels offruit, complexity, and richness into this velvety-textured winewithout causing it to taste heavy.

It is in a leaguewith such legends as the 1961 Latour a Pomerol. Beausejour-Duffau’s 1990 has always been the most concentrated wine ofthe 1990 vintage. The color remains an opaque murky purple.The nose offers up fabulously intense aromas of black fruits(plums, cherries, and currants), along with smoke, a roastedherb/nut component, and a compelling minerality. The wine isfabulously concentrated, with outstanding purity, and a nearlyunprecedented combination of richness, complexity, and overallbalance and harmony...In several blind tastings, I have mistakenthis wine for either the 1989 or 1990 Petrus! However, the 1990Beausejour-Duffau is even more concentrated than those twoprodigious efforts.

1995 Silver Oak Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa ValleyNapa Valley“...has turned out even better than the 1994. It possesses a moresaturated ruby/purple color, as well as a more flamboyant andexotic bouquet. Moreoever, it seems less evolved.

Made from 1.3 tons of fruit per acrefrom a relatively young (15 years) vineyard...My tasting notesbegin with the words “great stuff.” Opaque black purple-col-ored, with a viscosity resembling vintage port, this thick, chewyShiraz exhibits a panorama of black fruits intermixed withlicorice, tar, roasted herbs, and sweet oak. The acidity and tan-nin appear to be missing because of the wine’s wealth of fruit,glycerin, and extract. It is a surreal, other-worldly style of Shirazthat needs to be sipped rather than gulped given its power andintensity. Anticipated maturity: 2002-2025.” (99 points) RobertParker, Wine Advocate #127, February 2000

The 2000is forceful yet plush, with a thick, juicy, succulent mid-palate, ripetannin, and a long, layered finish.

Napa Valley“...Mondavi’s 1994 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is an exquisitewine, as well as a Cabernet that may turn out to be one of thewines of the vintage. The deep opaque purple color, and tightlywound nose and flavors still reveal enough profound aromasand flavors to mark this as one of Mondavi’s most sensationalefforts. The nose possesses a Margaux/Mouton-like cassis, leadpencil, floral aroma, backed-up by copious quantities of black-currant fruit. In the mouth, my notes said, “great stuff.”...forthose able to buy more than a bottle or two, and who possessthe discipline to wait 10-15 years, this wine should prove to be aformidable California Cabernet with a rare complexity, ele-gance, and richness.

I am increasingly convincedthat this is the most profound Cheval Blanc since the legendary1982. Because of its fleshy, low-acid character, the wine can bedrunk, but it is still youthful, with a deeper purple color thanthe more mature-looking 1989. It should offer exotic opulencefor at least another 15-20 years. A compelling Cheval Blanc!”(98 points) Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #109, February 1997

THE DISTINGUISHED CELLAR OF A HIGHLY-KNOWLEDGEABLE COLLECTOR FEATURING AN EXTRAORDINARY SELECTIONOF HISTORIC MADEIRA INCLUDING TERRANTEZ 1795

We were very fortunate to offer a vast selection ofMadeira from this important cellar in our inaugural auc-tion. The second installment is also impressive. Therange, quality and sense of history all make this a highlyappealing offering.

All Wines Recently Removed From Ideal Storage

1795 Terrantez Madeira BarbeitoThe Terrantez wines are exceedingly rare, as the varietal wasnot replanted following the outbreak of the phyloxera louse in1872. Madeira from the Terrantez grape has a firm, almostbitter quality from having been fermented with skins andstems. Additionally Barbeito is known for producing wineswith slightly higher acidity, the combination of varietal andproducer make for a nearly eternal wine.

1990 Château LatourPauillac, 1er cru classeEight base neck, two top shoulder level; slight signs of seepage;eight slightly raised corks; slightly damp stained labels“This is a beauty, but not the awesome blockbuster I remem-bered. There is a roasted, earthy, hot year character withextremely low acidity, fleshy, seductive, opulently-texturedflavors, and a full-bodied finish with considerable amounts ofglycerin and tannin. The wine was sweet, accessible, andseductive on the attack...it will last 25-30 years, but is it theimmortal classic many observers, including myself, thought itwas?

A blockbuster wine, commanding respect ratherthan love, of which a few ships suffice. Tasted a second timesix months later; on this occasion noted for the treacly char-acter of the nose and treacly concentration on the palate -neither easily recognizable as Malvazia." P.174-5

"Made from the last Malvasia Candida vines from the Faja dosPadres vineyard. Tasted on eight occasions and it is alwayssheer perfection.

To summarise: medium-deep, rich amber, gold highlights; highly scented, floral,strawberry-like fruit, or grande champagne cognac; fairlysweet, fleshy yet not of this world, richness countering thecustomary acidity.

1999 Dalla Valle Vineyards Red Wine, MayaNapa Valley“The virtually perfect 1999 Maya is a wine of stupendous unc-tuosity, richness, fruit, and elegance. It is remarkable that theCabernet Franc grown in these red volcanic soils can producewines of such intensity as well as elegance. Notes of cassis,blueberries, blackberries, espresso, smoke, earth, and vanil-la are offered in a full-bodied, profoundly concentrated andlayered style.” (97 points) Robert Parker, Wine Advocate#142, August 2002

It boasts an opaque purple color alongwith a gorgeously pure nose of creme de cassis, charcoal,and floral characteristics. The wine is opulent, dense, andrich, with exceptional purity, a viscous texture, and impressiveunderlying tannin that frames its large but elegant personali-ty. Not surprisingly, this is a candidate for the wine of the vin-tage. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2020.” (97 points) RobertParker, Wine Advocate #142, August 2002

The 2001 isapproachable now, but based on how the 1992 is evolving (stilla young wine that has not yet reached its adolescence), thiswine should develop over 15-20 years.” (98 points) RobertParker, Wine Advocate #150, December 2003

1989 Château CantemerleHaut-Medoc, 5me cru classeBase neck level“I believe the 1989 Cantemerle is this estate’s finest winesince their monumental 1953. This ruby/purple wine has anexplosive bouquet of crushed blackberry fruit and violets, anopulent, lush texture bolstered by good alcohol levels and softtannins. Anticipated maturity: 1994-2010.” (91 points) RobertParker, Wine Advocate #85, February 1993

1996 Musigny, Vieilles Vignes Comte Georges de VogüéCôte de Nuits, Grand Cru“This bright, dark ruby-colored wine is exceptional. Its enticingnose reveals extraordinarily refined aromas of a myriad of flow-ers soaked in cherries, blueberries and traces of sweet mocha.This oily-textured, full-bodied, perfectly harmonious, and com-pellingly delineated wine could not be any more elegant. It pos-sesses awesome depth, concentration, and purity in its violetand cherry cream pie-flavored personality. Moreover, its formi-dably long finish displays a strong yet satiny backbone. I predictit will evolve magnificently. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2014+.”(94-97 points) Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #118, August 1998

TS : Top shoulder levelNormal level for wines 15-20 years old

VHS : Very high-shoulder levelTypical for any wine of 20 years of age or older

HS : High shoulder levelNatural reduction through the cork, usually acceptable

MS : Mid shoulder levelTypically due to some deterioration of the cork andtherefore some variation in overall condition of wine
