PRIME CUTS OF CHOICE BORDEAUX
This collector is more a drinker of the best rather than a speculator. As the bidder will notice there are no original wood cases. The original purchaser, though buying from the best sources in case lots, discarded them with no intent of reselling the wine. Red Bordeaux was often the perfect accompaniment to a range of game and beef. A change in lifestyle and drinking habits more toward white wine, shifted his buying habits and necessitated this alteration in cellar composition. On offer in stellar condition are the first-growths and super seconds from select fine vintages.
Property of a Prominent Midwest Doctor
Removed from temperature and humidity controlled wine cabinets in a temperature-controlled cellar by Christie's wine specialists

Château Lafite-Rothschild--Vintage 1983
Pauillac, 1er cru classé
Lot 769 levels: six bottom neck and two top shoulder; one stained label
Lot 770 levels: eight bottom neck and four top shoulder; one nicked label and four stained labels
"Finally, the 1983 Lafite is beginning to shed its tannin. The wine exhibits a deep ruby/garnet color with only a slight lightening at the edge. The intoxicatingly perfumed nose of lead pencil, pain grille, red and black fruits, minerals, and roasted herbs is provocative. In the mouth, this wine displays considerable body for a Lafite, plenty of power, and a fleshy, rich, sweet mid-palate. Long, elegant, plump, and surprisingly fleshy, this outstanding example of Lafite seems largely forgotten given the number of high quality vintages during the golden decade of the eighties. Anticipated maturity: Now-2030. Last tasted 3/97" Robert Parker (Bordeaux Book, 1998)
