Description
Two of our most generous benefactors, Barry and Sue O'Brien, have assembled a formidable cellar, including some of the world's greatest wines from the greatest vintages. Perhaps more importantly they are wonderful hosts.
This lot represents an invitation for six guests to attend a once in a lifetime dinner party at Barry and Sue's recently renovated Islington home.
How mouthwatering and jaw-dropping the wine at this feast will be is up to the winning bidder.
£0-£1000 ~ Bog Standard Cru ~ a collection of the finest wine from the local off-licence and random bottles left as gifts over the years.
£1000-£3000 ~ Premier Cru - a selection of brilliant wines from the classic regions of the wine-producing world.
£3000-£5000 ~ Grand Cru - a selection of the top tier wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and beyond.
£5000 + ~ Crown Jewels Cru - a selection of wines with mythical status including vintage Dom Perignon, Domaine de la Romanee Conti, Petrus and Yquem...
The O'B's cellar includes many of the great names of the wine world: DRC, Petrus, Lafite, Le Pin, Rothschild, Haut Brion, Yquem, Roulot, Ponsot, Sassicaia, Ornellaia, Vega Sicilia and Penfolds Grange.
Generous to a fault, those who know your hosts will testify that agreeing which wines to select will be a delight, and Sue has insisted on using her favourite catering firm to provide a fabulous tasting menu...
