The Visionary’s Cellar. This remarkable collection of California Blue Chip icons, stellar Bordeaux and more is the result of decades on coveted mailing lists and relationships carefully cultivated over more than twenty years. The consignor spared no expense in creating two extraordinary cellars: one, a showpiece of elegant lighting and design for entertaining; the other, an equally meticulous reserve for overflow of the highest caliber. Hundred Acre, Harlan Estate, Dana, Colgin—this is a titanic lineup of treasures for the discerning collector. As our generous consignor embarks on a new chapter in retirement, the fruits of his passion are now offered to our bidders. Bid with confidence—and with gusto.
"A wonderfully fresh, bright and layered nose reflects notes of cool red and black cherry, plum, violet, lavender, herbal tea, earth and a subtle, but not invisible, touch of wood. There is notably more volume and mid-palate concentration to the relatively supple medium weight plus flavors that tighten up noticeably on the dusty, balanced and exquisitely persistent finish where a hint of bitter cherry pit surfaces. This moderately powerful effort is shaped by dense but fine tannins and is a wine that should amply repay extended cellaring." (94 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound, Jan. 2019)
“The superb 2016 Clos de Tart Grand Cru confirms the promise it showed from barrel, unfurling in the glass with a striking bouquet of raspberries, rose petals, blood orange, black tea, spices and smoked meats. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, pure and ample, with a deep core of vibrant, searingly intense fruit that entirely cloaks its structuring chassis of satiny tannin, concluding with a long and captivatingly floral finish. More elegant and transparent than the richer and fleshier 2015, this is an exceptional vintage for Clos de Tart.” (97 pts. William Kelley, Wine Advocate, Jan. 2019)
