NEW YORK, NY.- The Christie’s Wine & Spirits Department announced Christie’s Wine & Spirits Online, open for bidding March 24 to April 7, presenting a superlative offering of California’s finest wines alongside other international rarities.

The online only auction begins with an impressive vertical of Harlan estate in bottle and magnum spanning celebrated vintages from 1991 to 2014. Also featured are some of the most treasured California producers, including Promontory, Opus One, Insignia, Dominus, Ridge, Bond, Araujo, Spottswoode, among many others. Additionally, there is a section of lots from Premiere Napa Valley Auction showcasing special bottlings usually only offered to top tier trade. Premiere Napa Valley offers limited edition, small production (60-240 bottles produced), one-of-a-kind cuvées from top tier California producers. The winemakers utilize this special opportunity to be highly creative and selective with these bottles, initialling each one to mark the authenticity and unique nature of this endeavour. These highly collectible wines are only available to trade buyers at their annual, private auction. For more information on California wines, refer to Christie’s collecting guide: The Californian wine producers every collector wants to have in their cellar.

Alongside the offering of prominent Californian wines, the Bordeaux First Growths also demand your attention. From ample selections of Mouton and Margaux, to an imperial of 1990 Lafite-Rothschild ($5,500 - 7,500), to a full case of 1990 Petrus ($28,000 - 40,000), this auction is packed with Old World gems. Burgundy is equally strong with great vintages from producers like DRC, Perrot-Minot, and Leflaive, just to name a few.

The sale is rounded out with excellent bottles from Rhône, Italy, Champagne, and Portugal, finishing with impressive Scotch and Bourbon whiskies. A large selection of Pappy Van Winkle is just one notable highlight.
