(1888PressRelease) February 19, 2010 - Cellarworks Inc and VinumXtremus LLC are pleased to announce another significant acquisition. At the large format auction at Sotheby's, London, on February 17th, VinumXtremus had the winning bid for the Cheval Blanc 2006 Melchior as well as other significant acquisitions on behalf of a major Korea - based Collector.

This very rare, huge format bottle ( 24 bottle equivalent) is one of only ten bottled by Cheval Blanc for its 2006 vintage: already hailed as a tour de force of wine making and rated very highly by all major critics. This wine will live and improve for decades. Imperials of Haut Brion and Ausone were also secured for the same Collector.

Lee Zinser, a principle of both companies, says "the acquisition of these specific wines relate to the cornerstone of any sophisticated collection. Our clients understand the significance and value of large bottle formats in their collections.

This recent auction at Sotheby's afford rare opportunities to acquire wines of important winemakers and vintages in unique large formats, sometimes so rare that they may be seen only a few times in a lifetime."

Cellarworks set a world record in 2006 with the acquisition of an ultra rare Yquem 1811 for 37,900 GBP. Cellarworks and VinumXtremus continue to secure major individual bottles of highly differentiated and themed wine assemblages on behalf of significant international Collectors."
