CEOHart Davis Hart Wine Co.

November 2012

As we are putting the fi nishing touches on the fi nal auction of 2012, we wanted to thank you, our

buyers and consignors, for making 2012 an excellent year for Hart Davis Hart. I am proud of our team

at HDH, and I see their dedication and focus every day. I hope that you have been pleased with our

service and that you will call on us for your auction and retail wines for many years to come.

We saw the market strengthen signifi cantly in the second half of 2012, as Bordeaux prices stabilized

and other major categories improved dramatically. We have experienced a record number of bidders,

including new clients from the US and around the globe. Burgundy certainly made the most headlines,

as collectors world-wide looked to add top wines to their collections. Bidders in this December 6th

auction will once again fi nd a great selection of Burgundy with excellent provenance from highly-

sought Domaines.

In addition to our seven auctions held during 2012, the HDH retail team, led by Nick Pagoria, grew by

35% and served more clients in the US and abroad than ever before. Whether visiting hdhwine.com

or working with the sales team on the phone, buyers have come to rely on top service and a constant

fl ow of carefully inspected collections. Congratulations to Nick and his team, and we hope that you

will call on them for your retail wines.

Our international clientele has always been a focus at HDH. I was able to personally host many events

this year throughout Asia and in Brazil. Clients in Hong Kong have been taking advantage of our

regular complimentary temperature-controlled shipments, arranged in partnership with our friends

at 13°, the highly-regarded storage facility located in Hong Kong. The addition of Shanghai-based Tina

Wu to the team has also been very well-received, as she and Gabriel Suk, Director Asia-Pacifi c, have

overseen our service throughout Asia.

I must also call attention to a few special groups offered in this auction, the last of 2012:

Lots 1-40 Long-time collector Paul Sullivan is offering an incredible assortment,

including elite First Growth Bordeaux, Pétrus and wines from Domaine de la

Romanée-Conti among other legendary wines.

Lots 41-168 A Midwestern collector is offering an dazzling selection of wines (Lots 41-168)

including 35 lots of wines from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, wines from JL

Chave, Giacosa and other top producers.

Lots 351-465 An amazing West Coast collection heavy in Burgundy (Lots 351-465) includes ten

lots of Rousseau and wines from Mugnier, Coche-Dury, Lefl aive, and Roulot.

Thank you for your confi dence in HDH. I hope that you will join us at Tru for the closing auction of 2012.

We wish you happy holiday and the very best for 2013.

Sincerely,

Paul Hart

CEO

A STUNNING SELECTION OF RAREST WINES

FROM THE MAGNIFICENT CELLAR OF DR. PAUL

SULLIVAN FEATURING CLASSIC BORDEAUX IN

CASE QUANTITIES AND EXCEPTIONAL BURGUNDY

FROM DOMAINE DE LA ROMANEE-CONTI

I’ve had the privilege of knowing Dr. Sullivan for nearly

30 years. He is a connoisseur in the greatest sense, with

expertise and passion that embraces the arts of many

eras and styles, from painting and sculpture to music

and architecture, and perhaps most profoundly, the art

of good living, for which his wine cellar is the greatest

of tools. His amazing and highly-customized home

cellar was designed to accommodate 10,000 bottles,

and during a recent visit it was abundantly clear that it

was bursting at the seams. Highlighted in the August

31, 1996 issue of Wine Spectator as one of America’s

great cellars, the contents cover a broad spectrum,

and we are honored that he has chosen HDH to help

him “prune.” All of the wines were carefully acquired

from reliable sources, many upon initial release or as

futures, and the humidifi ed cellar maintains a steady

temperature of 53-56°F. Over the years we’ve savored

and discussed many great bottles from his collection,

and they have all been exemplary.

Ullage, Bottle Size Descriptions & Summary of Abbreviations Used in this Catalog

LEVELS OF WINE

For Bordeaux, Port and other wines in bottles with defi ned shoulders the extent of ullage (or wine level in the bottle) is de-

scribed 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

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.

BOTTLE SIZES

Half-bottle: 375 milliliters (ML)

Bottle: 750 milliliters (ML)

Magnum: 1.5 liters (L)

Double-magnum: 3 liters (L)

Jeroboam:* 5 liters (L), except when used to designate

Burgundy or sparkling wine, in which case

the contents are 3 liters (L)

Rehoboam: Same literage as a jeroboam, but in a

bottle of different shape

Imperial: 6 liters (L)

Methuselah: Same literage as imperial, but in a bottle of

different shape

Salmanazar: 9 liters (L)

Balthazar: 12 liters

Nebuchadnezzar: 12 to 16 liters (L)

Melchior: 18 liters (L)

Case: 12 standard bottles, 24 half-bottles

or 6 magnums

* Please note that prior to 1978 Bordeaux wines bottled in jeroboams were typically 4.5L bottles

PROCEDURES FOR

BIDDING & PAYMENT

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 & Pay-

ment” 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, iden-

tifi cation and a major credit card. Please contact Annie Trooien

at 312.573.5592 or [email protected] 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 identifi cation. 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 benefi ted 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 ac-

curately 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 judge-

ment, 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 specifi c 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 lead-

ing 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.

AUCTION ESTIMATESAuction estimates are provided for each lot, with all fi gures

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.

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 confi dence 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 fl oor 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,

see below:

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 confi rmation 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 ac-

cept 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 fol-

lowed 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

fi rst 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.

Buyers wishing to pay for purchases via wire transfer should

direct funds to:

Northbrook Bank & Trust Company

(Lake Forest Bank & Trust)

245 N Waukegan Road

Northfi eld, IL 60093

Routing Number: 071-926-184

Swift Code: WTFCUS44

Benefi ciary account name: HART DAVIS HART WINE CO

Benefi ciary account number: 7520004406870

If payment has not been received by the 21st day following the

auction, HDH Wine Co. reserves the right to charge the buyer’s

credit card on fi le for any amounts still due as well as any

resulting late fees and other costs incurred, including credit

card processing fees. Payments received after this 21st day will

be subject to a late fee equal to 3% of the total purchase price.

Additional late fees equal to 3% of the total purchase price may

be charged for every 14 days past the initial 21 day period.

NOTE: Buyers from whom full remittance is received by the

Friday following the auction (by check or wire transfer only)

will receive a 1% credit to apply toward purchases in the next

auction. The credit does not carry forward beyond the next

auction, and it is not transferable.

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

also provide us with their Illinois Business Tax Number.

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 ap-

plicable 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 non-

taxable. 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 ”Condi-

tions 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 identifi cation before bidding. We may

require bank or other fi nancial 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 identifi ed 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 com-

mencement 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 “fi nal 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

fi nal bid and a premium of 19.5% of the fi nal 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 stor-

age 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 fi nancial 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 avail-

able 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 recov-

ery 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 fi t;

iv) to pay the seller an amount up to the net proceeds

payable in relation to the amount bid by the default-

ing 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.

ix) to charge any credit card on fi le for the invoice

balance including any late charges.


If we resell the property under paragraph (iii) above, the

defaulting buyer shall be liable for payment of any defi ciency

between the total amount originally due to us and the price

obtained upon resale as well as for all costs, expenses, dam-

ages, 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:

i) buyer acknowledges that title to wines purchased

passes to the buyer at the time of purchase or at the

hammer. Further, the buyer authorizes HDH Wine

Co. to choose a common carrier on behalf of the

buyer which will act as the buyer agent;

ii) buyer acknowledges and agrees to be responsible for

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

confi dential 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 consid-

ers 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 fi nal

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 fail-

ure to execute such bids or any error relating to same.

13) The rights and obligations of all parties shall be governed

by the laws of the State of Illinois.

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 pur-

chased 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/Pur-

chaser’s agent.

2) Bidder/Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to be responsi-

ble 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 lim-

ited 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 pro-

cessing 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 instruc-

tions 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.


INSURANCE

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.

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 insur-

ance 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 docu-

ments at the time of delivery. If HDH is not notifi ed of any

breakage or loss claims within 24 hours of delivery, the claim

will not be honored.

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 noti-

fi ed of a claim of loss or breakage within 24 hours of delivery,

the claim will not be honored.

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 tem-

peratures, even by Overnight service, may seriously damage

wines. We defi ne 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 confi rm appropriate tem-

peratures will be held at the point of origin, along the probable

route, and at the fi nal destination.

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 condi-

tions 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 morato-

rium. 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, regard-

less of the weather conditions or temperatures. Should a

Weather Watch moratorium arise during a previously sched-

uled shipment date, HDH will contact you via email to arrange

an alternative shipping date.

PACKING

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 other-

wise. 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.

COLLECTION OF PURCHASES

All wines are stored in our temperature and humidity-con-

trolled 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

We offer complimentary storage in our temperature and

humidity-controlled facilities for 60 days after the date of auc-

tion. 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 com-

plimentary storage does not count weather watch days.

How to Sell Your Wines with Hart Davis Hart

Wines may be offered in one of our regularly scheduled auctions, providing the upside potential generated by competitive

international bidding. 2010 was another highly successful year, with an average sold rate of 99.9%, the highest of any major wine

auction fi rm in the world. Bidders participated from nearly every state in the U.S., as well as Brazil, Canada, China, Germany,

Iceland, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Singapore, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

Bring your wines to the most experienced wine auctioneers in America.

Whether you are looking to sell your entire collection or just interested in thinning your cellar, please contact us for a

complimentary appraisal and information regarding our consignment procedures. Please submit a list which details the storage

conditions of your cellar, along with quantities and vintages of your wines. Our experts will review your list and determine

and inspect individual bottles prior to fi nal selection.

Our team can also oversee the arrangement of packing and shipping your wine aboard a licensed temperature-controlled carrier.
