Wm Koch auction?

[Peter Creasey]

So why is William Koch auctioning off a huge (20,000 bottle) block of upscale wines?

As he says in the intro, he is 75 years old and owns 43,000 bottles and he surmises that he will not finish them all.

What fraction of them come from the magical laboratory of Comrade Rudy?

Probably none or close to none. Koch may have the most closely vetted cellar in the world because of his litigation involving counterfeit wines.

Yeah, once bit, twice shy. His experience with Hardy Rodenstock preceded L'Affair Rudy by a good few years.

Chris Coad invited me to Harvey Rodenstock's yard sale years ago But I had a prior engagement.

Sheesh, the catalog reads like a Koch lifestyle magazine.

So much fuss, when you can drink so well for under $50 a bottle.

Wozu der Lärm?
