Château Cheval Blanc 1948, St Emilion 1er Grand Cru Classé (5)

An exceptional collection of rare bottles removed from an Irish country house. Most of these wines are all that remain from a cellar purchased by the vendor's father in 1955 for £500 from his cousin, based on a valuation by Berry Bros. & Rudd, who had originally suppled many of them.
