“ Jamais homme noble ne hait le vin ” François Rabelais (1494 - 1553)
wine, f r a n c e ’ s c u lt u r a l h e r i ta g e Following the recognition of the gastronomic French meal back in 2010 – inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, France’s wine-making region of Champagne and a part of Burgundy were granted “world heritage status” in 2015, a well-deserved recognition to these two flagship vineyards, for their restless mesures in preserving and valuing their cultural and natural patrimony over the centuries. Wine is inevitably linked to France’s culture and living heritage. It has forged bonds between people and shaped landscapes for thousands of years. Throughout their own history, Burgundy, Bordeaux or the Rhone Valley have helped to spread wine culture across the world. While harvest is in full swing across the country, and as a celebration to the praised French wine regions, I am thrilled to present this “ Kings & Queens ” wine o’clock online auction, an outstanding selection of some of the most irresistible French Domaines and Châteaux. Amongst the highlights of this sale, Henri Jayer, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Mongeart-Mugneret, Mugneret-Gibourg, René Engel, Château L’Evangile, Château Gruaud-Larose and E. Guigal wines from Swiss exemplary collections which will captivate all rare wine lovers. “ Kings & Queens ” wine o’clock will start at 2 pm precisely on Tuesday 8th of October (Swiss time !). Be on time, it will go fast and us Swiss don’t mess with time !

LOT 1
Domaine Henri Jayer, Vertical of Vosne-Romanée Cros-Parantoux from 1988 to 2000 Premier Cru, Bourgogne – Côte de Nuits French private collection
( Please find details on next page )
These exceptional bottles bearing the label designed by Henri Jayer for Cros Parantoux have had only one owner since they left, all together, Henri Jayer’s cellar in 2003. The acquisition of these bottles was a result of freshly caught trout, thanks to which an avid fisherman and wine connoisseur convinced Henri Jayer to sell these bottles to him.
