On 26 April 2017 in London, Sotheby’s will present Burgundy & Beyond: Two Great Continental Collections. This 810-lot sale exceptionally combines two fabulous collections, both with unimpeachable provenance and from perfect storage. The spectacular array of white and red Burgundy includes Coche-Dury, Dugat-Py, Dujac, Jean Grivot, Henri Jayer, Lafon, Leflaive, Liger-Belair, Méo-Camuzet, Roulot, Roumier and Rousseau in Premier and Grand Cru glory. Beyond Burgundy, top-notch Bordeaux features First Growths, Super Seconds and Right Bank marvels, including a plethora of magnums. Stunning Châteauneuf du Pape from Sabon and Beaucastel, as well as a splash of inimitable Vega Sicilia Unico, complete this unique, dual-owner sale.

Serena Sutcliffe MW, Honorary Chairman, Sotheby’s Wine, said: “This is a sale to warm the heart, delight the taste buds and where close perusal of the catalogue brings its own rewards! Collections from great European connoisseurs are always extra-special as they are amassed, and enjoyed, by people whose wine knowledge is deeply ingrained and often honed by generations from the same family. These are treasure-trove cellars as they contain so many wines that are extremely difficult to access, due to world-wide demand and relatively small vineyard holdings.”Serena Sutcliffe MW, Honorary Chairman, Sotheby’s Wine, said: “This is a sale to warm the heart, delight the taste buds and where close perusal of the catalogue brings its own rewards!
