1945-2019: Exceptional vertical auction of Mouton-Rothschild now available on iDealwine

iDealwine auction

What a wonderful way to end 2023! Last Friday, December 15th, saw the opening of a very unusual new auction featuring an extremely rare vertical of wines from Château Mouton-Rothschild, a Bordeaux Grand Cru Classé that became one of the top five in 1973.

Beautiful Vintages

The vertical is impressive and nearly complete. Hovering between 1945 and 2019, it contains some of the greatest vintages in the property’s history. In fact, it was with the Victory vintage that the idea of decorating the labels with the work of an artist was born.

Amongst the most emblematic, you will be able to find the following:

1945: V de la Victoire created by Philippe Jullian

1955: Braque’s drinking pleasure

1958: Salvador Dali and the transgression of all artistic boundaries

1970: Chagall’s watercolor touch

1971: Kandinsky and his resolutely abstract work

1973: Picasso’s bacchanal

1990: Francis Bacon, inspired by the drinking composed around the wine glass

1997: Niki de Saint Phalle and her allegory of gastronomic pleasures

THE SELLER, COLLECTOR OF… COLLECTIONS

In this auction, we are working with a true enthusiast. He is a collector of… all sorts of collection. The seller in this case has truly launched himself into the world of wine, particularly that of Bordeaux wines. Yquem, Chapelle d’Ausone and, of course, Mouton-Rothschild have all made it into this wonderful selection of wines. What does he look for? The quintessentially excellent cuvée and the experience of searching for it.

The bottles have been carefully stored in a single-story cellar which was custom designed by a renowned artisan. The conditions were ideal, with double climatization in order to ensure the perfect temperature.

One thing is certain – that this auction gives you the opportunity to be just like the seller, a collector of collections, whether it be art or wine! Note that the lots are offered individually, allowing you to complete your own cellar.

We wish you a very happy bidding experience!
