5532 Shafer Cabernet Sauvignon - Vintage 1998 Hillside Select (Wines Located in New York) "...is a candidate for wine of the vintage. It continues to gain weight, and is better each time I retaste it. Its opaque purple color is accompanied by gorgeous aromas of graphite, vanilla, black currant liqueur, and minerals. This rich, full-bodied Cabernet offers sweet tannin, a layered texture, and a finish that lasts for 45-50 seconds."(95pts) 2 bottles per lot $280-350 5533 Sloan Red - Vintage 2005 (Wines Located in New York) "...is rich, full-bodied, but with great elegance and palate presence, without being heavy.

Extremely full-bodied, pure, and well-balanced, this Cabernet is still unevolved and youthful, but it appears to possess all the potential required to develop into something profound."(95pts) 6 bottles per lot $260-350 5548 Torbreck Shiraz - Vintage 2003 Run Rig 3vlscl, 1scrc (Wines Located in New York) "The sensational, inky/purple-tinged 2003 exhibits a stunningly sweet nose of blackberries, blueberries, litchi nuts, smoked meats, and a hint of apricots. Elegant yet super-powerful, rich, concentrated, and long, it is a tour de force in winemaking as well as a modern classic example of Barossa Shiraz."(99pts) 5 bottles per lot $600-800 5549 Torbreck Shiraz - Vintage 2000 The Factor 3nl (Wines Located in New York) 6 bottles per lot $350-480 5550 Clos Apalta - Vintage 2005 (Wines Located in New York) 1 bottle per lot $30-40 _____________________________

A blend of equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot (47% of each) and the rest Cabernet Franc, it exhibits an opaque purple color as well as a magnificent bouquet of truffles, scorched earth, blackberry and blueberry liqueur, subtle smoke and spring flowers. The wine's remarkable concentration offers up an unctuous/viscous texture, a skyscraper-like mouthfeel, sweet, sumptuous, nearly over-the-top flavors and massive density."(100pts) 1 bottle per lot $420-550 5561 Château Leoville Las Cases - Vintage 2009 St. Julien (Wines Located in New York) "...boasts an inky/purple color, monumental concentration and lots of sweet, jammy black currant, black cherry and kirsch fruit intermixed with crushed rock and mineral notes."(98+pts) 3 bottles per lot $480-650 5562 Château Lynch Bages - Vintage 1955 Pauillac hs, ltl, stl, illegibly faded cork but believed to be 1955, outstanding color (Wines Located in New York) 1 bottle per lot $200-300 5563 Château Lynch Bages - Vintage 1990 Pauillac 1bn, 1lscl, different importers (Wines Located in New York) "More classic - beefy, blood orange, thick, muscular...massive - big wine, similarly constructed to the 1989 but more balanced and integrated."(95pts JK) 2 bottles per lot $500-650 5564 Château Margaux - Vintage 1959 Margaux vhs, lbsl, sdc, excellent color and condition (Wines Located in New York) "The last wine on this magical afternoon was the 1959 Margaux.

Remarkable intensity, lively acidity, and abundant tannin provide definition and grip. This is the most intense, muscular, and biggest Monbousquet made to date..."(95pts) 3 bottles per lot $190-240 5566 Château Mouton Rothschild - Vintage 1997 Pauillac (Wines Located in New York) "...exhibits a soft mid-palate, loads of pure fruit, nicely-integrated smoky new oak, and surprising length for the wine's initial attack. There is moderate tannin in this offering. This will be one of the few 1997s that will warrant a short-term cellaring of 3-4 years before consumption. I would not be surprised to see this wine last for two decades or more, making it one of the longer-lived 1997s."(90pts) 1 half-bottle per lot $60-90 5567 Château Palmer - Vintage 2009 Margaux (Wines Located in New York) "An opaque blue/black color suggests a wine with thrilling levels of concentration and intensity, and that's exactly what a "...taster gets. Subtle smoke, incense and Asian spice (soy?) notes interwoven with graphite, blueberry, blackberry and cassis characteristics lead to a full-bodied, phenomenally concentrated, viscous, opulent wine with plenty of sweet tannin."(97pts) 2 bottles per lot $350-500 5568 Château Pavie - Vintage 2005 St. Emilion 2nl (Wines Located in New York) "The 2005 Pavie is an absolutely amazing wine that has shed most of its oak aging (usually 24-28 months). Opaque purple in color, it is beyond belief in extract and concentration, but perfectly balanced and pure, with the oak well-integrated. Massively concentrated, and still a baby, this wine tastes more like it's two to three years old than one that's been around for a decade. Intense notes of grilled meats, spice box, cassis, black cherry, licorice and graphite arepresent in abundance. Enormously endowed, but with superlative purity and balance, this is the greatest Pavie in the early Perse era, starting in 1998. Only the 2009 and 2010 rival this in his opinion, but I would add the 2000. This killer effort should drink well for another 50 years and demonstrates the greatness of this terroir owned by the Perse family. Only 7,000 cases were produced from a blend of 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Bravo!"(100pts) 3 bottles per lot $750-950 5569 Château Trotanoy - Vintage 1990 Pomerol 2bn, 2lscl, 1nl, 2sdc (Wines Located in New York) "Sleeping giant. Dark red color with a brick edge.

A deep golden color, it has a dense and almost Barsac-like bouquet with tangerine, apricot, acacia and melted candle wax. It displays good intensity, unfolding beautifully in the glass. The palate has a strident opening, with a slight bitter edge that lends this Yquem great tension."(95pts) 1 magnum per lot $300-400 5572 Beaune Rouge - Vintage 2007 Clos des Ursules, Domaine des Heritiers, L.

The outstanding, dark purple-colored 1996 Amarone offers a knock-out nose of wood charcoal intermixed with black truffles, melted asphalt, blackberries, and roast beef.

Giacosa (Wines Located in New York) 3 bottles per lot $160-220 5589 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2006 Il Greppo, Biondi Santi (Wines Located in New York) "...reveals lovely detail and nuance, but without the firmness of many other young vintages. Today the 2006 is quite accessible. I will be surprised if it doesn't start shutting down at some point. Regardless, the 2006 appears to be built more on finesse rather than power. Freshly cut flowers, hard candy and licorice are layered into the finish."(95pts) 3 bottles per lot $300-450 5590 Amarone - Vintage 1979 Bolla 4cm bc, lstl, sdc, excellent color and condition (Wines Located in New York) 1 bottle per lot $40-50 5591 Brunello di Montalcino - Vintage 2006 Tenuta Nuova, Casanova di Neri (Wines Located in New York) "The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova is an explosive, heady wine endowed with considerable richness in its dark wild cherries, licorice, tobacco, herbs and cedar. This generous, exuberant Brunello shows awesome depth and richness in a style that captures the essence of the warmth of the southern reaches of Montalcino. The Tenuta Nuova dazzles with its stunning depth, textural polish and captivating, sensual personality. A round, inviting finish has the last say in this majestic Brunello.
