The auction week #85


By Pablo Alvarez

Pablo, originally from Spain, has always been in close contact with the fine wine world as his family runs one of the most prestigious wineries in Spain. Pablo chose to follow his passion for the wine industry and specialised in crop science with an emphasis on viticulture and oenology.

Wines from far & wide…

In this wine o’clock #85 dedicated to world wines, we offer wines from the best wine-growing regions in the world “outside France”. Throughout this wonderful journey we present to you a selection of wines from both the New World and the main wine-growing regions of Europe.

The largest selection corresponds to Italian wines from Tuscany and Piedmont in different formats, without forgetting the excellent red wines from Sicily. You will find American wines with the exclusive wines of Harlan Estate up to the wines of Sine Qua Non or Kistler. Among the Spanish wines, we offer the different wines from Bodegas Vega Sicilia and Dominio de Pingus. Within a collection that presents wines from the best wine-growing regions, Australian wines such as Bass Phillip or the great wines of Penfold’s and Henschke could not be missing.

On the American continent, we cannot forget the wines produced in Patagonia, with the wines of Jean-Marc Roulot for Bodega Chacra, but also the famous wines of Mendoza represented here by Catana Zapata for example.

Until now we have mainly talked about red wines but we cannot miss out on the great white wines of the world such as the German wines of JJ Prüm or the sweet wines of Tokaj.

One of the wines I love the most are Port wines and of course this collector owns a large quantity of these great wines of the world. We offer everything from red wines from Dirk Nieport like Charmes or Batuta to great wines from Graham's and Taylor's, both in Tawny versions and the great Vintages.

I hope you enjoy viewing the list of lots and bidding as much as we enjoyed organizing this series of auctions for you.
