The wine section holds fine and collectable bottles, with an emphasis on mature vintages from famous estates. Recent listings have included Château Latour from Pauillac, a Grand Cru from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Tenuta San Guido's Sassicaia and Screaming Eagle from Napa Valley. Bordeaux, Burgundy, Tuscany and California are the main regions, alongside mixed vintage selections.
With mature wine, condition matters as much as the label. Look at the fill level: wine close to the cork or in the neck is a good sign, while a level at the shoulder suggests evaporation over time. Check the capsule and cork for signs of seepage, and read whether the bottle comes in its original wooden case. Labels may show light wear from cellar storage, which does not affect the wine.
Store wine on its side so the cork stays moist, in the dark, at a steady 10-15°C. Let an old red stand upright for a day before opening so the sediment settles, then decant carefully. Mature wines can fade quickly once opened, so taste them soon after decanting.
Store fine wine lying on its side so the cork stays moist, away from light and vibration, at a steady temperature of about 10-15°C. Rapid changes of temperature do more harm than a slightly warm but stable room. A wine fridge or cool cellar is ideal for long keeping.
Fill level, or ullage, describes how far the wine sits below the cork. In the neck or close to the cork is excellent for an old bottle, top shoulder is normal for wine several decades old, and mid or low shoulder can mean the wine has oxidised. It is one of the main checks when buying mature wine.
A Super Tuscan is a Tuscan red wine made outside the traditional rules of the region, often with French grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Sassicaia from Tenuta San Guido in Bolgheri was one of the first and now has its own appellation. Tignanello and Ornellaia are other well-known examples.
The Bordeaux first growths, or premiers crus, are the top estates in the 1855 Classification of the Médoc and Graves: Château Lafite Rothschild, Château Latour, Château Margaux, Château Haut-Brion and Château Mouton Rothschild, which was promoted in 1973. They are among the most collected red wines in the world.
Most old red wines benefit from decanting to separate the wine from its sediment. Stand the bottle upright for a day or more, open it gently and pour slowly into a decanter, stopping when sediment reaches the neck. Very old wines can fade quickly, so drink them soon after decanting.
