It’s difficult to describe just how extraordinary this auction is. With 12,565 bottles, it is the largest auction ever held on the iDealwine website and is a true Pandora’s Box full of gems and legendary wines. We hope this article helps you to find the bottles that interest you the most.

Legends from Bordeaux, Burgundy and beyond

• La Tâche 1999 from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti – an iconic bottle from one of the best vintages seen in the Côte de Nuits, ready to drink now.
• Romanée-Conti 2002 from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti – quite simply, the most sought-after climat in the world.
• Meursault Les Narvaux 2008 from Domaine d’Auvenay – the perfect example of an immense Meursault, created by the legendary Lalou Bize-Leroy.
• Bonnes-Mares 2003 from Domaine d’Auvenay – Chambolle-Musigny’s second-placed grand cru; it’s probably the most delicate and deepest wine from Burgundy.
• Six bottles of Château Mouton Rothschild from the 1982 vintage – one of the three greatest Pauillac châteaux from the legendary 1982 vintage.
• Grange des Pères 1992 – the first vintage produced by Laurent Vaillé, the Aniane genius. It’s a bottle that has become so rare, we hardly ever see one in our auctions.
• Dom Pérignon Plénitude 3 from 1983 – a rare Champagne that has spent the last three decades ageing in Dom Pérignon’s cellars.
