Auction News<\/h1>\n

My bottom fishing at the January 29 Butterfield auction netted the following wines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
\n

1938<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

Ch. Mouton Rothschild
\n(A good pre-war vintage.\u00a0 Mouton is a first growth red Bordeaux.)<\/td>\n		\n

120<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

1947<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

Clos de Tart
\n(Wonderful year for red Burgundy.\u00a0 Clos de Tart was the standout wine at the Henline\u2019s Burgundy tasting several years ago.)<\/td>\n		\n

120<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

1961<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

Ch. Haut Brion Blanc<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

(This is that spectacular and exclusive white Graves from our first tasting, but from the stellar 1961 vintage.\u00a0 The 1988 is $160 at release!)<\/p>\n

190<\/p>\n

$ 430<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I have also obtained a subscription to the new Davis & Co. Auctions in Chicago.\u00a0 These are run by the people who used to run Christie\u2019s, and seem to offer opportunities very similar to Butterfield.\u00a0 I\u2019ll bring the catalog to the next meeting.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I\u2019m floating the deficit until next dues, but some of you are not current (you know who you are), so pay up!<\/p>\n

See you March 5th.<\/p>\n
