A few of the lots worth a closer look this month.
Rockford SVS Basket Press Shiraz. One of the most sought-after bottles in Australian wine, from a small-production single-vineyard release that rarely surfaces outside the cellar door.
Noon Eclipse. Sold out at the cellar door until November 2026. 114 lots here.
Rousseau Chambertin Clos de Beze 1982. A 44-year-old Burgundy Grand Cru from the most revered producer in Gevrey-Chambertin. Starting bid $3,000.
Chateau d'Yquem 1979. The world's most celebrated Sauternes. Starting bid $650, and historically it closes well above that.
Bladnoch 30 Year Old. Only 950 bottles were ever released. Three decades in Oloroso and Moscatel sherry casks.
Henschke Hill of Grace. Eden Valley Shiraz from one of Australia's most storied vineyards.
Pol Roger Sir Winston Churchill. Churchill reportedly drank 42,000 bottles of Pol Roger in his lifetime. Worth finding out why.
