About this Item
Provenance
The late David Brice was a respected wine connoisseur, collector and co-founder of Brice and Burnett – The Fine Wine Specialists (formerly Wine Cellar). His lifelong passion for wine from all corners of the world wine, and generosity, helped develop a culture of fine wine in South Africa and beyond. Always with value and authenticity in mind, the collection spans a wide range of styles from leading producers and diverse regions. The wines were professionally imported under refrigeration and carefully stored at Brice and Burnett (formerly Wine Cellar) thereafter. Many of the producers are not available in South Africa and provide an excellent buying opportunity.
For more detailed information on the lots, please feel free to contact Roland Peens (roland@briceandburnett.co.za). Roland spent many years sharing and enjoying these wines with David Brice and is happy to provide further insight into the collection.
Critics Ratings
"The 2018 Meursault Charmes 1er Cru is already very seductive on the nose with yellow fruit, grilled almond, orange pith and a touch of tangerine. It is very well-defined and disarming in purity. The palate is medium-bodied with a fine bead of acidity struck through the layers of citrus fruit. Good tension here, spicier than some of its peers with stem ginger and a touch of five-spice on the lingering finish." - Neal Martin, Vinous, 92/100 (May 2022)
