Rare Wines and Spirits Featured in The Zachys Early Fall Auction

The Zachys Early Fall Auction, Sept. 17-18 in NYC, will feature 1,800-plus lots from an international connoisseur.

Lot892
Karuizawa 25 year old.

The collector lived in Germany and Thailand, and bought rare items from both countries. He then air-shipped his wines to New York under temperature-controlled conditions, according to Invaluable.com, an online marketplace co-hosting the event.

In New York, the wines were stored in a custom-built temperature-controlled home cellar.
