Most of the group correctly identified all three of these wines. Quite a number also correctly identified all three wines inthe second flight. This is the first time I have given three wines in a tasting perfect scores: The La Mission, Petrus and Margaux. The group&#8217;s favorite wine was the Margaux, followed by the Petrus.<\/p>\n<p>Acquisitions<\/p>\n<p>We got lucky. Bonhams &amp; Butterfields scheduled their auction on Friday rather than Saturday, and it was the Friday in July that the stock market plunged. As a result, we stole most of the lots we bid on.
