Lot 93
One bottle of Chateau Mouton Rothschild 1945 from the cellars of Faringdon House, Oxfordshire. Top shoulder, exceptional for a wine this age. This bottle has been stored for over half a century in the cellars at Faringdon. Critic reviews: Michael Broadbent described it as “arguably one of the greatest vintages of the 20th century [producing] long-lasting wines of the highest quality”. Mouton ’45 is so exceptional that Broadbent gave the wine six stars (in a five-star rating system), writing that “There is simply no other wine like it.” Robert Parker wrote of Mouton 1945, “A consistent 100-point wine (only because my point scale stops at that number), the 1945 Mouton Rothschild is truly one of the immortal wines of the century. This wine is easily identifiable because of its remarkably exotic, over-ripe, sweet nose of black fruits, coffee, tobacco, mocha, and Asian spices. An extraordinarily dense, opulent, and rich wine, with layers of creamy fruit, it behaves more like a 1947 Pomerol than a structured, powerful, and tannic 1945. The wine finishes with a 60+ second display of ripe fruit, extract, and sweet tannin. This remarkably youthful wine (only light amber at the edge) is mindboggling! Will it last another 50 years?” Buyers Premium 18% +VAT

THE SHAMROCK WHISKEY (1920S) produced by Kirker Greer & Co. Ltd, Belfast No volume statedNote: The Shamrock Whiskey was produced by Kirker Greer & Co. Ltd, a Belfast-based firm formed from the merger of the Kirker and Greer families, both whisky blenders and merchants. In 1886 the company became one of the founders of the Connswater Distillery in Belfast, together with Mitchell & Co., Ltd., and a Belfast Distiller, James Wilson & Son. Connswater was closed in 1929. As of 1888 Kirker, Greer & Co were selling both "Old Lochdhu Whisky" from Glasgow and "The Shamrock Whisky" from Belfast (in 1888). William Greer was a member of the family and moved to Glasgow in 1893, becoming a leading wine and spirits merchant and like many of his peers started blending whisky for both home markets and export. It is highly likely that whisky from Connswater Distillery was used to produce Shamrock.The bottom of the bottle features a labelled marked 'Veritor', which was a brand that during the early 1910s marketed the Shamrock along with three other Irish whiskies; Mitchell's Holly, Corbett's 3 star and Tyrconnel 3 star. In an advert published on July 1 1911 it reads, 'All branded with the Veritor label - the label which is the guarantee of the highest standard of quality in Irish Whiskey…Unless you can see the Veritor label you cannot be sure that you are getting Irelands best.'We have not identified any other bottles of Shamrock from this era for sale in recent years. The bottle has a driven cork common in that period and the glass contains imperfections that were also typical prior to improvements in glass manufacture in the 1920s, meaning this is likely one of the earliest bottles of Irish whiskey to survive.Veritor Image: Veritor Irish Whiskey, 1912 advert © Lordprice Collection / Alamy Stock Photo

SPEYSIDE 30 YEAR OLD - JOHN CRABBIE & CO. DISTILLERY ACTIVE bottle number 224 of 330, with presentation case and certificate of authenticity 70cl/ 48.6% Note: The name of John Crabbie has its roots in the earliest incarnations of the Scottish whisky industry. The whisky brand has recently been revived and the true spirit of the company brought to a new generation of connoisseurs. Not in a small part due to this award-winning Speyside 30 year old. John Crabbie was a titan of the whisky industry in the early 19th century who built his substantial business through sourcing and selling exceptional whiskies from some of the best known distilleries across Scotland including Laphroaig, Bunnahabhain, Dalmore, Bowmore, Oban and Macallan. From his bonded warehouses in Leith, Crabbie exported whisky throughout the world, developing a reputation for outstanding quality and consistency. He distilled single malt whisky in Leith and Haddington, and in 1885 he, along with Andrew Usher and William Sanderson, founded the North British Distilling Company to produce grain whisky for his revolutionary new blend. By 1897 their new distillery was producing over 13 million litres of grain whisky each year. Like many family whisky brands the Crabbie name disappeared during a period of market consolidation, living on only in the 'ginger wine' created by his wife. However he really must be remembered as a visionary in the whisky trade. His commitment to fine whisky is honoured in the recent bottlings released in his name. The new team behind the reborn John Crabbie & Co have their roots in many of the big names in the Scottish whisky industry including Managing Director David Brown (formerly Dalmore) and have the support of influential figures such as Bob Dalgarno (the former Master Whisky Maker at Macallan). Following in John Crabbies footsteps they have been sourcing exceptional whisky from around Scotland. This 30-year-old Speyside was the first rare cask release under the Crabbie name and is from an 'unknown' Speyside distillery. Although never revealed by the tight lips at John Crabbie & Co, the distinct quality and character of the whisky clearly points to one distillery. Described by David Brown as a "unicorn whisky" which has not been produced since 1988, the Crabbie 30 has found favour with the judges in international competition scooping double gold at the 2018 San Francisco world spirits challenge and Master at the Hong Kong whisky masters the highest possible award.

Jose Weiss (British 1859-1919) River landscape Oil on canvas Signed lower left 61 x 102cm (24 x 40 in.) Jose Weiss (1859 - 1919) was a French artist who is known for his Sussex landscapes. Originally embarking on a career in the wine trade at the insistence of his father, the sale of a painting during a trip to London helped to convince Weiss that he could make a living as an artist. In 1894, he married Agnes Mary Ratton and in 1897, the couple moved to Houghton where they would stay for the next 23 years. Weiss became a British citizen in 1899. During his career Weiss exhibited at the Royal Academy 33 times and was particularly successful with patrons from the United States. As well as being a fine artist, Weiss’s second passion was in aeronautics. He would use proceeds from art sales to fund experiments with and making model gliders. In 1905 Weiss took his models to Paris to attend the “Premier Concours d’Aviation de l’Aero Club de France” and won a medal for the longest flight. He was also an exhibitor at the British Aero Club’s show at The Agricultural Hall in 1907. A year later he patented his own wing design. Examples of Weiss’s work can be found in Winnipeg, Chicago, St Louis, Buenos Aries, Johannesburg and Dublin.
