Wineauction Nr. 418 – "It's (not so) empty!"
Dear Wine Lover,
The auction will take place on Thursday 18. September from 10 a.m., live-online only.
On Friday, 19 September, it will also be live online. Unfortunately it will not be possible to hold
the auction with an audiance.
Afterwards, we warmly invite you all to a barbecue at our location on Pfingstweidstrasse 6.
We would be delighted to see you there!
The auction “It’s (not so) empty!” brings together a sensational mix of wines. We are especially
proud to present to you this wide variety of wines at the highest level.
We start on Thursday in Bordeaux. Many young wines in original wooden cases will go under
the hammer. If you‘re planning a big celebration, we have the right wines! From Château Ducru-Beaucaillou, we have been entrusted with a perfectly stored collection of large-format bottles.
From the years 2014–2019, we will be auctioning double magnums, impériales, salmanazars,
balthazars, and nebuchadnezzars. These large formats are also particularly suitable for
long-term storage.
We then move on to Piedmont, with a strong lineup from Roagna, Gaja, and Giacosa – especially
noteworthy are the many Etichetta Rossa bottles. Next, we’ll make the hearts of Tuscany lovers
beat faster with a beautifully impressive selection.
From overseas, the renowned Napa estates are sure to impress, as well as a collection of Viñedo Chadwick by Errázuriz from Chile.
The day will conclude with spirits: exquisite rums, marcs, and rare single malts, including a range
of Ardbeg whiskies from various bottlers and ages.
On Friday, we begin with Burgundy. Classics such as Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Duroché, Fourrier, Grivot, Mugnier, Roumier, and Rousseau will be featured – but also Dancer and Les Horées. The selection of white Burgundies is just as diverse, with produ-cers like Bachelet-Monnot, Bonneau du Martray, Dancer, and many more.
Our Champagne selection exceeds all expectations: from classic cuvées and prestigious names
to experimental grower champagnes – it’s all here.
Finally, we arrive in Switzerland, where the Graubünden region takes the spotlight with wines from Donatsch, Gantenbein, Fromm, Marugg, Obrecht, Pelizzatti, and many others.
Should you need any additional details or information about a wine, please do not hesitate to contact us. We will be happy to answer your questions.
If you are unable to attend, we would be delighted to receive your pre-bids online or by e-mail or post, whereby the latter must reach us by September 17th at the latest.
We look forward to a lively auction on September 18/19 and a nice evening with you all.
With my best regards
Luca Höfer
