Hopes of decorating my cellar are not on schedle for me in near future. So I am offering my collection of 150 rare wine crate ends collected from everywhere I could I could get them.These are not Liquor store cardboard boxes or throw out cheap wine boxes.These are the ones that add $$$$ at rare auctions for people who can put complete case together for auction.I would like to sell as a lot to cellar or interior specialist who could benifit by a impressive collection.but would listen to other offers.THESE ARE NOT SALVAGED FROM RECENT TRAGIC FIRES.See the look on peoples faces when they truly feel they are seeing a cellar.
These are the legends in Wine History if you could have found these years ago you would have spent $50,000.00 to end up with trophies like these on cellar walls. Great fame by association for your collection to be surrounded by great Wine Legends of the region.These are just a few that i am listing as examples.
1 Rothschild Grand Vin De Lafite 1981
2 Rothschild Grand Vin De Lafite 1998
The history of the estate can be traced back to Medieval times, the etymological origin deriving from fite, one of the French words for mound. The Ségur family, most notably Jacques de Ségur expanded the vineyard during the 17th century and when his son Alexandre married Marie-Thérèse de Clauzel in 1695, they effectively conjoined the exalted estates of Château Latour and Lafite. Further expansion followed throughout the 18th century under the aegis of Alexandre's son: Nicolas-Alexandre whose moniker, Prince of Vines is apt for an individual who owned most of the prime vineyards of the Médoc. The property consolidated its enviable reputation and by 1855 it was one of the most expensive and demanded wines in the region, assuring its place as one of the four Premier Crus.
At this point the Château was actually under the ownership of a British gentleman named Scott (whose intriguing story you can find on the official web site) but in 1868 it was sold to Baron James de Rothschild for 4,140,000 francs plus tax and it has remained within the banking family ever since.
1 Chateau Mouton Rothschild 1998
The history of Mouton can be traced back to the 1720's when Joseph de Brane established the vineyard, having secured the seigneurial right from the Barony of Mouton. The name "mouton" itself originates from a derivation of the word "la motte" which translates as "mound" (the elevation of Mouton-Rothschild is approximately 40 metres above sea-level.) It is not named after the French word for lamb, nor that fact the Baron Philippe was born under the zodiac sign of Aries.
