Catalog, Make This One of the Best Sales in Which I Have Been Involved in My 30 Year Career in the Wine Business An Auction of Finest & Rarest Wines Saturday, April 8 at 9:00 am At the Chicago Athletic Association 12 South Michigan Avenue, Chicago Those bidding or sending inquiries should refer to this auction as Sale #0604 “MIA” March, 2006 Dear Client: In 2005 I began a partnership with long time auction experts Michael Davis and Paul Hart, forming Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. with a shared goal to create the best and most trusted venue in the United States for buying and selling fine and rare wine. We are deeply gratified by the response that we have received among collectors and restaurateurs worldwide. Here are some of the highlights of our first year: • $9.5 million of wine sold at auction • 97% of auction lots sold • Bids received from 36 states and 14 countries. • Our September 2005 auction broke the record for the largest wine auction ever held in Chicago, besting auctions held by Christie’s, Sotheby’s and Davis & Co.! We proceeded to shatter this record once again in November. 2006 promises to be even more exciting. Our first auction in January sold 96% of the lots offered totaling more than $2.1 million. The wines in our extraordinary April auction, as showcased in this catalog, make this one of the best sales in which I have been involved in my 30 year career in the wine business. Within these pages, you will find consignments of impeccable provenance from some of the most important collectors in the world. I hope that I will see you at the auction on April 8th. However, if you cannot attend you can still participate online at our website, www.hdhwine.com, by fax, or phone. This year we are adding at least one additional auction to our schedule.

With more than 1,500 years of cultivation, it is hard to argue against the Musique et Vin festival by holding an auction for special bottles donated by winemakers this belief. However, to The Wine Forum, Burgundy is more than just pure, scholarly wine. To us, whom we will be visiting and splitting the proceeds equally between these two worthy causes. Burgundy represents all that we as a group stand for—that is, that fine wine is not a right, but a And what a tour we have lined up! We commence with a Gevrey-Chambertin Grand Cru tasting privilege. Speaking with the region’s very top winemakers, they resolutely believe they are merely the current custodians of cherished plots, and that their role is to make the best wines possible at the Château du Clos de Vougeot on the final night of the 2014 Musique et Vin Festival.

  • DOMAINE MARIUS DELARCHE Pernand-Vergelesses Rouge 1Er Cru ‘Ile Des Vergelesses’
    Wine Facts DOMAINE MARIUS DELARCHE Pernand-Vergelesses Rouge 1er Cru ‘Ile des Vergelesses’ It’s easy to miss the petite hamlet of Pernand-Vergelesses, hiding behind bulk of the noble Corton hill. Yet this Côte de Beaune village, with its impeccable vineyards, is a treasure trove of refined Burgundy wines. For more than three generations, the Delarche family has crafted authentic, earthy and expressive Burgundy in Pernand, much under the radar of the Burgundy cognoscenti. Yet Delarche Burgundy offers a clarity and purity of flavor that is captivating; whites are creamy and concentrated, taking a cue from Corton-Charlemagne, while reds are spicy and refined, seductive from the moment they’re bottled yet able to age effortlessly for years. WINERY: Domaine Marius Delarche WINEMAKER: Etienne Delarche ESTABLISHED: 1940s REGION: FRANCE • Burgundy • Côte de Beaune • Pernand-Vergelesses APPELLATION: Pernand-Vergelesses AOC BLEND: 100% Pinot Noir VINEYARDS: Bordering Savigny, ‘Ile des Vergelesses’ faces southeast, high up on the slope, from 810 to 840 feet in altitude. Pernand’s country roads, plus ancient stone walls, separate the plot from surrounding vineyards, creating an island or “ile” (pronounced like “eel”). Soils are rich in limestone and red clay. AGE OF VINES: 40+ years WINEMAKING: Hand-harvested. Destemmed; fermented on indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled, stainless steel tanks. Aged in older French barrels (10% new) for one year. Bottled unfined and unfiltered. TASTING IMPRESSIONS: Aromas of blackberry, black cherry, chocolate dust, crushed stones, violets. Complex, layered, fine-grained tannins; flavors of red plums, summer berries, light pepper. PAIRING SUGGESTIONS: Charcuterie; grilled pork sausages; French cheese from Burgundy (like Comté) 1601 Martin Luther King Jr.

  • New Stars of Burgundy Tasting
    NEW STARS OF BURGUNDY A TASTING AT ROBERSON WINE THURSDAY JULY 17th 2008 NEW STARS OF BURGUNDY THE DOM AINES Domaine Roulot (Meursault): This is a domaine that has grown rapidly in stature over the past 20 years, although that is not to say that Roulot hasn’t long been considered to be one of Meursault’s very best domaines. Guy Roulot was the driving force behind the creation of the estate and married into the Coche family (of Coche-Dury fame), which brought him plenty of prime terroir.Today the domaine is run by his son Jean-Marc - undoubtedly one of Burgundy’s top white winemakers. Roulot is a domaine that believes in terroir, and they produce 7 cuvées from different vineyards around Meursault. Indeed, Guy was a pioneer in seperately bottling the village appellation climats known as ‘deuxième crus’, and the wine that we will taste tonight is one of the best examples of this – ‘Les Tessons Clos de Mon Plaisir’. Domaine Leflaive (Puligny-Montrachet): Not many beacons of Burgundian winemaking shine brighter than Do- maine Leflaive – this estate is the doyen of Puligny-Montrachet, not to mention a leading pioneer and promoter of biodynamic viticulture. Today’s Leflaive is run by Anne-Claude Leflaive and Pierre Morey, who form a formidable team. Taking the mantle from Anne-Claude’s father Vincent Leflaive was always going to be a difficult task (he was one of Burgundy’s best loved figures), but the wines from this domaine have continued to improve over the last 15 years and they are undoubtedly befitting of an estate that owns vines in all of Puligny’s top climats.

TAGS: Highlights (http://www.decanter.com/tag/highlights/) News Home (http://www.decanter.com/tag/news-home/) California (http://www.decanter.com/wine/wine-regions/california/) wine and balance This article first appeared in Decanter magazine’s January issue. Subscribe here (https://subscription.decanter.com/subscriptions/decanter-subscriptions/). This ‘balance’ thing is going to run and run in California. We’ve had wine writer Jon Bonné and his book on The New California. And we’ve had sommelier Rajat Parr and Co with their ‘In Pursuit of Balance’ campaign, which was so successful it has now disbanded after its final tasting in November in San Francisco. Why this success? Because it touched a raw nerve. And these balance advocates weren’t the first ones either. Cathy Corison has been practising balance at her Napa winery for nearly 30 years. Jim Clendenen at Au Bon Climat has been talking this language since the 1980s and is a bit miffed that the new flag-wavers are claiming the balance idea is all theirs, when he’s been banging the drum for 35 years.

  • Identifying Open Research Problems in Cryptography by Surveying Cryptographic Functions and Operations 1
    International Journal of Grid and Distributed Computing Vol. 10, No. 11 (2017), pp.79-98 http://dx.doi.org/10.14257/ijgdc.2017.10.11.08 Identifying Open Research Problems in Cryptography by Surveying Cryptographic Functions and Operations 1 Rahul Saha1, G. Geetha2, Gulshan Kumar3 and Hye-Jim Kim4 1,3School of Computer Science and Engineering, Lovely Professional University, Punjab, India 2Division of Research and Development, Lovely Professional University, Punjab, India 4Business Administration Research Institute, Sungshin W. University, 2 Bomun-ro 34da gil, Seongbuk-gu, Seoul, Republic of Korea Abstract Cryptography has always been a core component of security domain. Different security services such as confidentiality, integrity, availability, authentication, non-repudiation and access control, are provided by a number of cryptographic algorithms including block ciphers, stream ciphers and hash functions. Though the algorithms are public and cryptographic strength depends on the usage of the keys, the ciphertext analysis using different functions and operations used in the algorithms can lead to the path of revealing a key completely or partially. It is hard to find any survey till date which identifies different operations and functions used in cryptography. In this paper, we have categorized our survey of cryptographic functions and operations in the algorithms in three categories: block ciphers, stream ciphers and cryptanalysis attacks which are executable in different parts of the algorithms. This survey will help the budding researchers in the society of crypto for identifying different operations and functions in cryptographic algorithms. Keywords: cryptography; block; stream; cipher; plaintext; ciphertext; functions; research problems 1. Introduction Cryptography [1] in the previous time was analogous to encryption where the main task was to convert the readable message to an unreadable format.
