INSURANCE CLAIM
LOTS 1 – 165 (inclusive)
The following premium wines are being offered on behalf of an insurance company and are part of an insurance claim for stock that has been heat affected. Please note that all bottles will be stamped as “insurance claim” and have a condition report.
The collection was stored in a refrigerated wine cabinet that was subjected to a compressor malfunction, resulting in the gradual heating of the listed wines over approx. 3 days. A small selection of this collection has been tasted and was found to be sound but we recommend that all wines should be consumed in the short term. |
