Château La Lagune 1934, John Harvey & Son, UK (2)
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.
