SEVILLE ESTATE Old Vine Reserve Pinot Noir 2017
Pinot Noir Yarra Valley
Estimate Per Bottle: 150-200

VIP INSIDER - BEST EVER? SHOW STOPPER   - JH99 and JUST 2 BOTTLES - Halliday notes - Vines planted '72, hand-picked and sorted in the vineyard, 70% whole berry/30% whole bunches, wild yeast open ferment, 23 days on skins, matured in French oak (30% new) for 10 months. Vivid crimson-purple; a majestic pinot, unrolling its beautiful tapestry of wild strawberry and forest berries, accompanied by feather-light, but persistent, tannins. I checked its quality by swallowing some at 8.30am. Likely one of the Pinot Noirs made this decade - Pay for ownership - demand is huge and precious few bottles

WYNNS COONAWARRA ESTATE John Riddoch Cabernet Sauvignon 1982
Cabernet Sauvignon Coonawarra
Estimate Per Bottle: 650-700

UNICORN - 1982 Wynns John Riddoch is still “sort of” available, maybe 30-50 bottles will go to international market this year – Be sure; that number will fall away to near nothing in the very near future  Yes over the years I have sipped a few examples of the enigmatic Wynns Riddoch 1982 – Be re-assured, it is an amazing wine, a true freak – My humble and defective palate recognised the extreme greatness – Everyone can! There are plenty of smart old wines out there, but only one 1982 John Riddoch– Here are a few reasons for all the fuss – For starters the wine has an auction estimate pushing $600 a bottle The Sterling Auction sales records (self-valuation system) has a crazy data set against this one – Over 300 sales records so, plenty of depth, highest sale price of $780 and last sale of $415 (damaged /ullaged bottle) – Crazy data?  On more than one occasion, the accuracy of these records was questions – double checked and proven – Crazy? 1986 John Riddoch is taken VERY seriously – Compared to 1982? Similar number of sales records for the 1986, highest sale price of $150 and last sale of $95 Why? 1982 sales results have been batty for years – driven by a legend, freak wine that everyone wants to possess rather than drink
