Spring has fi nally come to Chicago and the offi ces of HDH are alive with activity. We have just completed our April auction and the YMCA Camp Independence benefi t dinner, and the team is preparing for our May and June sales.

While it is always a thrill to report on record auction prices or historic tastings, it was the April 3rd beneﬁ t for YMCA Camp Independence that I will remember as a true high point for Hart Davis Hart. We hosted a dinner and auction which raised over $200,000 and will provide Paul Hart the funds to build a camp for children with Spina Biﬁ da. The generosity of the donors, the President Hart Davis Hart Wine Co. bidders and Tru restaurant was remarkable.

The May auction will take place at Tru over two days – Friday, May 16 at 11am and Saturday, May 17 at 9am. The Friday session features a series of jewel-fi lled consignments that will capture your attention, particularly if you are searching for Bordeaux for your cellar. Throughout the fi rst 500+ lot Friday session, there is an amazing array of the great modern vintages from top cellars, with full cases of fi rst growths and other leading Châteaux. Be sure to review lots 166-261 and 392-436 out of the many on offer.

At the Saturday session, we will be offering a truly staggering consignment. Removed from a state of the art, underground, temperature-controlled cellar of a long time friend of Hart Davis Hart who offers a cache with stunning depth. The owner has purchased very carefully over the years and stores the collection in an ideal, cold and humid cellar. In an attempt to make room in the cellar, the owner has chosen to cull this cross-section of his collection, with top examples from all of the major regions.

The session will start with over 300 lots of Bordeaux, including the great classic and modern vintages, with a broad selection of full cases. Perhaps most notable is the unrivaled offering of large format bottles. Bidders will ﬁ nd a never before seen selection of these age- worthy mammoth bottles including, double-magnums (3L), jeroboams (5L), imperials (6L), balthazars (12L), nebuchadnezzars (15L) and even melchiors (18L).

Though the Bordeaux selections are unrivaled, the collection continues with impressive benchmark wines from around the globe. The wines from the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti span lots 892-935, and following the deep selection of Rhônes, the offering continues with over 100 lots from Gaja (lots 1013-1142). There is so much more – including legends from California, Spain and Australia. We are honored to represent this collection – and we have not seen more ideal cellar conditions or a collector with more passion.

We hope that you will join us in Chicago on May 16 and 17 for this very special auction!

Friday, June 27th, 2008 6:30pm Dinner

North Pond 2610 N. Cannon Drive, Chicago, Illinois Valet Parking Available

$1,000 (all inclusive)

The Grand Cru Bâtard-Montrachets of Michel Niellon are legendary, and for good reason. Produced from a miniscule .24 acre plot with vines over 80 years old, the wines are rich, decadent, and always in short supply. In praising the wines, Robert Parker once com- mented “I wish all Montrachets would taste this good!”

Join us as we enjoy and compare seven vintages of Bâtard-Montrachet at Chicago’s North Pond and enjoy the seasonally-inspired cuisine of 2008 James Beard-nominated Chef Bruce Sherman. Located at the edge of a pastoral pond on the grounds of Lincoln Park and with a commanding view of Chicago’s famous skyline, the setting is one of the most uniquely beautiful in the city, especially on a summer evening. Space is limited.

LEVELS OF WINE

For Bordeaux, Port and other wines in bottles with deﬁ ned shoulders the extent of ullage (or wine level in the bottle) is described by its position in the bottle. Our interpretations are as follows:

NECK The normal level of young wines

BN : Base neck level Totally acceptable for any age of wine

TS : Top shoulder level Normal level for wines 15-20 years old

VHS : Very high-shoulder level Typical for any wine of 20 years of age or older

NECK HS : High shoulder level BN Natural reduction through the cork, usually acceptable TS VHS MS : Mid shoulder level HS Typically due to some deterioration of the cork and therefore MS some variation in overall condition of wine LS LS : Low shoulder level Risky, usually not accepted for sale

For Burgundy, German and other wines in bottles with sloping necks the ullage is measured in centimeters from the base of the cork.

BOTTLE SIZES Half-bottle: 375 milliliters (ML) Bottle: 750 milliliters (ML) Magnum: 1.5 liters (L) Double-magnum: 3 liters (L) Jeroboam:* 5 liters (L), except when used to designate Burgundy or sparkling wine, in which case the contents are 3 liters (L) BASE OF CORK Rehoboam: Same literage as a jeroboam, but in a bottle of different shape Imperial: 6 liters (L) Methuselah: Same literage as imperial, but in a bottle of different shape 3cm BELOW CORK Salmanazar: 9 liters (L) 4cm BELOW CORK Balthazar: 12 liters 5cm BELOW CORK Nebuchadnezzar: 12 to 16 liters (L)

Melchior: 18 liters (L) Case: 12 standard bottles, 24 half-bottles or 6 magnums

* Please note that prior to 1978 Bordeaux wines bottled in jeroboams were typically 4.5L bottles

KEY: oc = original case • owc = original wooden case
