This carefully curated sale bridges the worlds of iconic spirits and storied wines. Among the standouts: The Yamazaki 25 Year Old, Macallan, Port Ellen, and a remarkable set of over 100 hand-illustrated bottles of Romano Levi grappa, including rare herb-infused examples.

A major highlight is the final artist-proof edition (0/12) of the Dictador Freedom Icon Collection — 12 exceptional bottles, each distilled in a different month of 1989 and presented with a private dinner hosted by Nobel Peace Prize laureate Lech Wałęsa in Gdańsk, Poland.

On the wine side, collectors will find treasures such as a magnum of Henri Jayer’s Cros Parantoux 2001 — the master’s final vintage — as well as bottles of Cros Parantoux 1995 and Echézeaux 1996 in original cases. Burgundy remains a centerpiece, with appearances from Domaine Rousseau, Mugnier, and Domaine Leroy, alongside verticals of Château Haut-Brion and Château Margaux.
