June 2012
It’s a beautiful spring day as I write this. It’s hard to believe the first half of the year is already coming
to a close, but that means that it is almost summertime in Chicago. Whether it’s dining al fresco,
running along the lakefront, or having a relaxing day at Wrigley with a beer and a Chicago dog, there
is so much to do – the city just comes alive. It’s my favorite time to be here.
So, it’s a great time to reflect on the year to date. Burgundy has been the story so far. For a couple of
years these great wines were almost forgotten at auction in the mad rush to buy Lafite and other top
Bordeaux, but this year we have seen Romanée-Conti, Leflaive, Roumier, and Rousseau take center

stage once again. Bordeaux is not out of the picture, however – although prices have fallen over the
last 12 months, they have stabilized over the first half of this year as Bordeaux drinkers are again
coming back into the market to buy the wines they love. It’s time again to buy mature Bordeaux from
the 80s and 90s.
Marc Smoler and I took a trip to Bordeaux in February. We visited dozens of Chateaux, had a great
meal at La Tupina, and tasted some incredible wines. The 2009 and 2010 vintages are both truly
exciting. When we returned, our retail team, led by Nick Pagoria and assisted by Maria Elgass and
Dale Salentiny, made a big push to recommend these great wines. Behind sales of these 2009s and
2010s, every month this year has been a record for HDH retail.
The June auction is very special to me because of the consignors, who are the real stars of every
auction. These are people whose passion for wine has led them to buy and cellar the best. Their
level of wine knowledge quite frankly almost always far surpasses our own. Our job then is simply
to provide an efficient platform for these great collections to be offered to buyers from all over the
world. These collectors have been building great cellars over decades, so you will see receipts in this
catalog that speak to the history of these collections. We consider it our job to get you the wines that
you want, but furthermore we have and always will consider it our duty to represent collections from
collectors we know and trust.
In the process we get to meet some remarkable people, and I just spent this past weekend with one
of those consignors (Lots 839-979). He bought almost all of the wines in this consignment from HDH,
so over the years we have struck up a relationship that has since turned into a close friendship. We
didn’t plan a wine weekend – we just planned a weekend with our families that incidentally involved
some wines. And incidentally, the 1990 Margaux from magnum was spectacular with steak on the
grill, and a bottle of Madeira from 1912 was only overshadowed by all the laughter around the fire pit.
Most importantly, our families were together.
I am just grateful to have the opportunity to make these relationships. I hope that all of you will come
join us at one of our auctions soon so we can get to know you better. We have a dinner at Publican
Quality Meats on Friday June 22 that you will not want to miss. A whole roasted boar and the world’s
greatest Syrahs! I’m getting hungry just thinking about it. Oh… and the lakefront, Michigan Avenue,
maybe a White Sox game… what more could you want? We hope to see you in Chicago for the sale!
Sincerely,
Ben Nelson
President

HENRI GOUGES
AN EXTENSIVE OFFERING OF FINE BURGUNDY
FROM TOP PRODUCERS AND A TANTALIZING
RANGE OF GUIGAL’S MAGICAL SINGLE-VINEYARD
COTE ROTIES FROM THE REMARKABLE CELLAR
OF AN IMPORTANT LONG-TIME COLLECTOR
We are honored to feature this amazing selection
from the extensive cellar of a prominent and long time
connoisseur with a particular passion for Burgundy. The
owner has been an active and impassioned collector
for decades, inspired by the many personal friendships
formed among winemakers and estate owners during
frequent visits to wine-producing regions around the
world -- particularly in Burgundy.
The provenance is impeccable. All wines were acquired
from the European market or directly from the estates
upon initial release, and were transferred to Octavian
Vaults, a unique storage haven in the UK, lying 100 feet
below the hills of Wiltshire and encased in solid Bath
stone. The wines remained in their deep caves until
HDH arranged for their transport across the Atlantic
aboard a refrigerated container. Upon arrival in New
York, the wines were placed onto a temperaturecontrolled carrier for shipment to Chicago.

AN EXTENSIVE SELECTION OF FINE BURGUNDY
FROM THE CELLAR OF A HIGHLY PASSIONATE
COLLECTOR AND LONG-TIME FRIEND ON THE
EAST COAST
All Wines Acquired on Initial Release and Stored Since
in a Custom Built Home Cellar
I had the privilege of working with this collector for
decades as a buyer, seller and most importantly, a
valued friend. He enjoyed a wide variety of wines, but
his true passion was Burgundy, and his expertise was
daunting. He was extremely opinionated about wines,
at times dogmatic, and we had our share of heated
discussions over the years. In each case, I ultimately
realized he was right, and only now admit that.

signing a contract for this consignment, he lost an epic
battle with cancer and will be greatly missed by many.
We are honored to feature these wines from his cellar,

Ullage, Bottle Size Descriptions & Summary of Abbreviations Used in this Catalog
LEVELS OF WINE
For Bordeaux, Port and other wines in bottles with defined shoulders the extent of ullage (or wine level in the bottle) is described by its position in the bottle. Our interpretations are as follows:
NECK
The normal level of young wines
BN : Base neck level
Totally acceptable for any age of wine
TS : Top shoulder level
Normal level for wines 15-20 years old
VHS : Very high shoulder level
Typical for any wine of 20 years of age or older
NECK
BN
TS
VHS
HS
MS
LS
HS : High shoulder level
Natural reduction through the cork, usually acceptable
MS : Mid shoulder level
Typically due to some deterioration of the cork and therefore
some variation in overall condition of wine
LS : Low shoulder level
Risky, usually not accepted for sale
For Burgundy, German and other wines in bottles with sloping
necks the ullage is measured in centimeters from the base of
the cork.

AUCTION ESTIMATES
PROCEDURES FOR
BIDDING & PAYMENT
Auction estimates are provided for each lot, with all figures
based on the most recent auction market results for the same
or comparable wines. Rarity and condition are at all times
taken into consideration. Estimates do not include Buyer’s
Premium or sales tax.
CONDITIONS OF SALE
Bidders are strongly encouraged to read the Conditions of Sale
contained in this catalog that state the terms governing the
purchase of all property sold at auction. By bidding at auction,
you agree to be bound by these “Procedures for Bidding & Payment” as well as the “Conditions of Sale.”
BIDDER REGISTRATION
Bidders attending the auction will be required to register for a
bidding paddle prior to the auction. We strongly encourage new
bidders to pre-register with us at least 48 hours prior to the
auction. Please be prepared to provide bank references, identification and a major credit card. Please contact Annie Trooien
at 312.573.5592 or accounting@hdhwine.com to complete the
pre-registration process.
A Registration Desk will be staffed at Tru one hour prior to the
beginning of the session through the completion of the auction
session. Major credit cards and/or a driver’s license will be
required as identification. Bidders must be at least 21 years old
and may be required to show proof of age. A valid credit card
(MasterCard, Visa, Discover or American Express) must be
presented with all bids. Bidding will be by paddle only, and all
transactions are subject to the Conditions of Sale.
DESCRIPTION OF WINE
To the best of our knowledge, all wines benefited from proper
storage prior to being delivered to our temperature and
humidity-controlled cellar. Every bottle in this catalog has
been carefully inspected by our experts and described as accurately as possible. Buyers of older and more fragile wines
must make proper allowances for natural variations of ullage
and general condition. Wines less than 30 years of age have
been determined by HDH, based on our professional judgement, to be in generally excellent condition unless otherwise
indicated. As outlined in the Conditions of Sale, no returns will
be accepted.
FORMAT OF CATALOG
Wines are typically grouped by cellar and are preceded by
a general heading, providing specific information about the
provenance of the wines. The description of wine is followed
by a lot number and quantity offered. A comprehensive index
is provided at the end of the catalog.
TASTING NOTES
We have been given permission by several of the world’s leading wine critics to use their tasting notes in our catalogs. Due
to space limitations, the notes in the catalog have been edited.
The entire note, and notes from other critics (where available)
may be accessed by viewing the catalog via our website,
www.hdhwine.com.
tel: 312.482.9996
BIDDING
In the saleroom, bidding is by registered paddle only. All wine is
offered by lot. Bidding increments are provided on the Absentee
Bidding Form in the back of the catalog. Consignors and their
agents are strictly forbidden from bidding on their own property.
All bids and lots are subject to auctioneer’s discrection.
ABSENTEE BIDDING
Those who wish to bid but are unable to attend the auction are
encouraged to submit absentee bids. Absentee bids are treated
in the strictest of confidence and at all times lots are acquired
at the lowest possible price. In the event that duplicate bids
are received, the earliest bid takes precedence. Therefore,
absentee bidders are urged to bid as early as possible.
PLEASE NOTE: Either/or bids and bid sheets with a limit
applied are executed on the floor by an HDH staff member
and therefore do not take precedence over an unconditional
absentee bid, regardless of the date and time the conditional
bids are placed.
Either/or bidding enables you to secure just one of a group
of lots. We will execute bids on your behalf until one of the
intended lots is won. For example, if you bid on lots 12, 56 and
247 but only want to secure one lot, we will bid on lot 12. If we
are unsuccessful, we will move forward with your bid on lot
56. If we are then successful on lot 56 we will not execute your
bid on lot 247.
When submitting bids please organize your bids alphabetically,

Absentee bids are accepted through our website,
www.hdhwine.com, by telephone, fax, or mail. An Absentee
Bid Form is provided in the back of the catalog. Bids should
be submitted in ample time for proper processing. A valid
credit card must be submitted along with bids. We reserve the
right to require written confirmation and/or bank references
for all bids, and may, at our discretion, perform a credit
card pre-authorization up to the total amount of your bids or
request a portion of the total amount of the bids as a deposit.
Absentee bids may be submitted on the day of the auction;
however, we cannot guarantee these bids will be executed,
though we will use every means available. We recommend
absentee bids be submitted prior to 5:00pm CST the day
before each auction session.
Bids must be submitted in consecutive numerical order, using
the bidding increments listed on the Absentee Bid Form. If bids
are received with incorrect bidding increments, we reserve the
right to round the bids down to the next appropriate increment.
PHONE BIDDING
Live telephone bidding is available on a very limited basis,
and with advance arrangements only. Bidders who wish to
bid live by telephone must submit a list of lots on which they
wish to bid 48 hours before the auction. We are unable to accept calls in the saleroom and must be supplied a telephone
number where the bidder can be reached on the day of the
auction, along with an alternate telephone number. Bidders
are encouraged to leave a written bid as well, which would
be executed only in the event our agents are unable to make
contact by telephone. Although we strive to accommodate all
requests for this special service, there are a limited number of
telephones and staff members available.
LIVE ONLINE BIDDING
Live online bidding is available at www.hdhlive.com. Bidders
who wish to bid live online should register to do so at least 48
hours before the auction. The registration process will be followed as per the above paragraph under “Bidder Registration.”
PLEASE NOTE: We offer bidding services at no charge, with
the understanding that any failure to execute bids or error
in doing so shall not be the responsibility of Hart Davis Hart
Wine Co. or its staff.
PAYMENT
Invoices are mailed or emailed to successful bidders by the
first business day following the auction, except when the
buyer is a licensee, in which case their invoice will be routed
through a properly licensed Illinois wholesaler. Payment is
due upon receipt of the invoice. Remittance must be received
in U.S. dollars; foreign checks are not allowed. We accept
wire transfers, checks drawn on U.S. banks, money orders,
direct debit via ACH initiation (please contact Annie Trooien at
312.573.5592 to set up), as well as MasterCard, Visa, Discover
and American Express. Payment by credit card is limited to a
total of $25,000 per buyer per auction. All successful bids will
be processed through a properly licensed retailer in Illinois.
When using a credit card to make a payment for a purchase,
the purchaser irrevocably waives any chargeback rights they
may have under their card holder agreement or otherwise.

BIDDERS WHO ARE LICENSEES
Licensees who intend to bid should provide well in advance of
the auction a photocopy of the license issued by their state’s
liquor authority. Licensees within the state of Illinois should

Provided this information has been supplied to HDH prior
to the auction, within three business days of the auction the
successful bids for licensees will be routed through a properly
licensed Illinois wholesaler, who will charge the buyer applicable taxes and gallonage fees. Payment by credit card is
prohibited for Licensee invoices.
TAXATION
At all times, taxation is determined by point of delivery. We are
required by law to collect the appropriate state and local taxes
from purchasers, unless the purchase is deemed to be nontaxable. All conclusions as to taxation are to be determined by
Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. in its sole discretion. All non-taxable
transactions must be completely documented prior to release
of purchases. Those licensed to sell alcoholic beverages
may submit their sales tax number and proceed with being
invoiced through our designated Illinois wholesaler.

CONDITIONS OF SALE
The property described in this catalog will be offered at public
auction by Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. (HDH Wine Co.) as agent
for various consignors (Sellers), under the following ”Conditions of Sale” together with the “Procedures for Bidding &
Payment” and “Collection, Delivery & Storage” sections in
this catalog. They may be amended by posted notices or oral
announcements made during the sale. By bidding at auction
you agree to be bound by these terms for this and all future
HDH auctions.
1) HDH Wine Co. has the right, at our complete discretion, to
refuse admission to the premises or participation in any
auction and to reject any bid.
2) A potential buyer must complete and sign a registration
form and provide identification before bidding. We may
require bank or other financial references.
3) When making a bid, the bidder accepts personal liability to
pay the purchase price, inluding Buyer’s Premium and all
applicable charges. Exceptions include a bidder acting as an
agent on behalf of an identified third party accepted by HDH
Wine Co. If such a case should arise, an explicit agreement
will be made, in writing, with HDH Wine Co. before the commencement of the sale and HDH Wine Co. will only look to
the principal for payment.
4) Every attempt has been made to describe all property as
accurately as possible. However, HDH Wine Co. and Seller
do not warrant or represent, and deny responsibility for,
the accuracy of catalog descriptions, encompassing but
not limited to vintage, provenance, authenticity, quality
and condition as may be stated in the catalog. Any and all
statements made relating to the property in the catalog or
salesroom or contained in advertisements or promotional
materials are merely statements of opinion and can at no
time be construed as warranties or representations of fact
or assumptions of any liability on the part of HDH Wine Co.
or Seller.
5) The Buyer accepts all purchases “as is.”
6) The term “final bid” as used herein shall refer to the price
at which any lot is knocked down to the Buyer. The purchase
price, due from the Buyer, shall be the aggregate of the
final bid and a premium of 19.5% of the final bid, together
with any applicable sales or use tax. The complete purchase
price will be due upon receipt of the invoice. If payment in
good cleared funds is not received within 21 days of the
purchase, HDH Wine Co. reserves the right to assess a late
charge of up to 3% of the total purchase price, in addition
to any other rights and remedies available by law to HDH
Wine Co., and additional 3% late charges every two weeks
following day 21. No property will be released to the Buyer
until HDH Wine Co. receives payment in full for all open
invoices, including any applicable state and local taxes or
compensating use taxes of another state which HDH Wine
Co. may be required by law to collect. Any applicable storage or handling charges must also be received prior to the
release of the property. In the event a charge or check is not
accepted by the appropriate financial institution, the buyer
remains liable for all amounts owed on the dates due.
7) If the buyer fails to make payment in full in good cleared
funds within the time required by paragraph 6 above, they
will be in default and we shall be entitled in our absolute
discretion to exercise one or more of the following rights or
remedies (in addition to any other rights or remedies available to us by law):
i)
to cancel the sale;
ii)
to hold the defaulting buyer liable for the total amount
due and to commence legal proceedings for its recovery together with interest, legal fees and costs to the
fullest extent permitted under applicable law;
iii) to resell the property publicly or privately on such
terms as we see fit;
iv) to pay the seller an amount up to the net proceeds
payable in relation to the amount bid by the defaulting buyer;
v)
to use against any amounts which we may owe the
buyer in any other transactions, the outstanding
amount remaining unpaid by the buyer;
vi) where several amounts are owed by the buyer to
us, in respect to different transactions, to apply
any amount paid to discharge any amount owed in
respect of any particular transaction, whether or not
the buyer so directs;
vii) to reject at any future auction bids made by or on
behalf of the buyer, or to obtain a deposit from the
buyer before accepting any bids;
viii) to exercise all rights and remedies of a person
holding security over any property in our possession
owned by the buyer to the fullest extent permitted
to the secured party by the law under the Uniform
Commercial Code in the State of Illinois.

defaulting buyer shall be liable for payment of any deficiency
between the total amount originally due to us and the price
obtained upon resale as well as for all costs, expenses, damages, legal fees and commissions and premiums, whatever
kind associated with both sales or otherwise arising from the
default. If we pay any amount to the seller under paragraph
(iv) above, the buyer acknowledges that HDH Wine Co. shall
have all of the rights of the seller, however arising, to pursue
the buyer for such amount.
8) HDH Wine Co.’s Shipping Policy is as follows:

all applicable excise, use and sales taxes due to the
state related to the purchase of these wines;
iii) buyer warrants that he/she is at least 21 years of age
and is purchasing the wines for personal use;
iv) buyer shall be responsible for the receipt of these
wines by a person at least 21 years of age or over.
9) HDH Wine Co. reserves the right to amend the description
of any lot by means of an announcement or notice in the
salesroom, and to withdraw any lot at any time.
10) Unless otherwise indicated, it may be that a reserve or
confidential minimum selling price has been established
on all lots. Should bidding not meet the reserve price, HDH
Wine Co. may enforce the reserve by bidding on behalf of
the Seller.
11) The highest bidder accepted by the auctioneer shall be the
Buyer, who will assume full risk and responsibility of the
lot upon the fall of the auctioneer’s gavel. The auctioneer
may refuse any bid and advance the bidding at his or her
discretion. If, during the auction, the auctioneer considers that any dispute has arisen between any bidders, such
dispute will be resolved by the auctioneer. The auctioneer
may determine to put up any lot for rebidding at any time
during the auction. In the event of any dispute during or
after the auction, the records of the auctioneer will be
conclusive, and the decision of HDH Wine Co. will be final
and binding on all parties.
12) Bids submitted to HDH Wine Co. are processed and
executed as a service and convenience to bidders. Neither
HDH Wine Co. nor its staff shall be responsible for any failure to execute such bids or any error relating to same.
COLLECTION, DELIVERY & STORAGE
LIMITS ON IMPORTATION
Buyers are cautioned that many states impose restrictions on
the quantity of alcoholic beverages purchased and brought
into its jurisdiction by a Purchaser from another state. In
some instances, special permits or licenses may be required
for the Purchaser or shipper. Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. will
not assume any obligation or responsibility for applying for or
obtaining permits or licenses.
SHIPPING
Our shipping policy is based on the following understanding
with the Bidder/Purchaser:
1) Bidder/Purchaser acknowledges that title to wines purchased passes to the Bidder/Purchaser at time of purchase
or at the hammer. The Bidder/Purchaser authorizes Hart
Davis Hart Wine Co. to choose a common carrier on behalf
of the Bidder/Purchaser which will act as the Bidder/Purchaser’s agent.
2) Bidder/Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to be responsible for all applicable excise, use and sales taxes due to their
state or country related to the purchase of these wines.
3) Bidder/Purchaser warrants that he/she is at least 21 years
of age and is purchasing the wines for personal use.
4) Bidder/Purchaser shall be responsible for the shipment
of these wines being received by a person at least 21 years
of age.
5) Bidder/Purchaser will be assessed a return/restocking fee
should the shipment be returned to HDH due to but not limited to the following: no person at least 21 years of age at
the address; the address provided is not valid; the shipment
is refused by the recipient.
Orders can usually be processed and prepared for shipment
within 48 hours of receipt of payment and any applicable taxes or
permits. Orders exceeding 250 necks will require additional processing time. Prior to shipment, HDH will notify the Purchaser
of a proposed ship date. If a ship date has not been established
by HDH, the order will remain in storage until the next ship date
becomes available. If an expedited ship date or special instructions are required, the Purchaser must contact HDH to schedule
such arrangements. It is recommended that Purchasers collect
their wines whenever feasible, as commercial shipment can be
risky, especially in the case of older and more fragile wines.
13) The rights and obligations of all parties shall be governed
by the laws of the State of Illinois.

INSURANCE
PACKING
Insurance will be provided for all shipments arranged by and
billed to HDH. This insurance will solely cover breakage or loss
from time of purchase to time of delivery.
At times we may be required to re-pack wines which are in
their original wooden cases. OWCs, when listed as part of the
lot, will automatically be shipped unless you instruct us otherwise. A $10 per OWC fee may be applied to shipping charges
which require re-packing into shipping boxes. OWCs may
ship separately via Ground Service. When providing shipping
instructions, buyers should specify that they do not want the
OWCs if that is their preference.
Neither Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. nor its agents assume
responsibility for any deterioration resulting from shipment,
which includes, but is not limited to: scuffed labels, cracked
wax capsules or minor seepage.
The insurance provided by HDH will only cover shipments
billed to HDH. Wines being shipped on Purchaser’s or agents
of Purchaser’s accounts will only be covered by HDH’s insurance policy until they leave the HDH warehouse, not while
in transit. Due to the fragile nature of vintage wine, HDH
strongly recommends that Purchasers arrange for collection
from HDH. All shipments arranged by HDH are made on the
buyer’s behalf.
Wines must be inspected by the Purchaser upon receipt and
any loss or breakage must be noted on the Shipper’s documents at the time of delivery. If HDH is not notified of any
breakage or loss claims within 24 hours of delivery, the claim
will not be honored.
COLLECTION OF PURCHASES
All wines are stored in our temperature and humidity-controlled cellar in downtown Chicago. Once full payment has
been received, wines may be collected from our dock with
48 hours advance notice. We are located at 363 West Erie
(one block west of Orleans) and our hours of operation are
Monday-Friday 8:30am to 7pm. To schedule collection of your
wine please contact our Shipping Manager, Jennifer Marshall,
at 312.573.5598.
STORAGE
If the buyer or an agent of the buyer will not be able to
receive and inspect the shipment upon delivery, the shipment
should be scheduled for another date. If the loss or breakage
is not noted on the Shipper’s documents and if HDH is not notified of a claim of loss or breakage within 24 hours of delivery,
the claim will not be honored.
We offer complimentary storage in our temperature and
humidity-controlled facilities for 60 days after the date of auction. Should a Buyer’s wine remain in HDH’s cellar for a period
longer than 60 days, a holding fee of $12.00 per nine-liter
equivalent per quarter year will be charged. The 60-day complimentary storage does not count weather watch days.
Should this insurance coverage not be desired, a written waiver
of insurance and any subsequent claims must be received prior
to the shipment of the wines. Without insurance, loss or damage
due to any cause will be at the Purchaser’s risk.

WEATHER WATCH
Transporting wine in extreme weather conditions and temperatures, even by Overnight service, may seriously damage
wines. We define these as temperature readings or predicted
temperatures of greater than 80 degrees or less than 20
degrees Fahrenheit. HDH performs regular weather checks
prior to shipment. These checks confirm appropriate temperatures will be held at the point of origin, along the probable
route, and at the final destination.
Tasting Notes:

During periods of extreme weather we strongly advise against
transport by any means. During these times we are pleased to
provide complimentary short-term storage until better conditions prevail. We refer to this type of hold as a Weather Watch;
if your order is placed during a Weather Watch period, it will
not be scheduled for shipment until the end of the moratorium. If you wish to ship regardless of weather conditions,
we ask that you contact the shipping department to arrange
shipment of your purchase and that you agree to a Weather
Waiver, releasing HDH from any liability from weather related
damage. Once we have received your Weather Waiver, your
shipment will be sent on the agreed scheduled date, regardless of the weather conditions or temperatures. Should a
Weather Watch moratorium arise during a previously scheduled shipment date, HDH will contact you via email to arrange
an alternative shipping date.
