1934 Kressmann Sauternes Bordeaux Value

[dharris]

I have acquired a bottle of Kressmann Sauternes 1934 Bordeaux and was wondering how to find the value of it or what the value of it is.

Het there dh ole okie. Lived at 205 NW 30th for 2 years while attending the U of Okla in the late 40s. Kressman is a new one on me. Did some quick research and didn't turn up a mention of this vinryard even back to rhe 1890s' so this must have been a negoitiant bottling. Your best bet is to contact one of the international auction houses. Good luck and visit ofter. Bucko and me be the only Oakies I know of on the board and we get picked on unmercifully. WW

Oh Honey, that bottle sounds absolutely Marvelous! Makes my mouth water just thinking about it! If I were you, I would run a bath and pop that baby open. Just savor it! If you decide not to, I am sure you have a friend in Ohio who would be more than happy to savor it for you.

No luck on the wine, but here's a mention of the Kressman family, which has been involved in the Bordeaux wine trade for a few generations. www.fostertravel.com/FRBORD.html

It's a very old name in the sale of Bordeaux and you will find it affiliated with some of the premier wines of the region.

Kressmanns own or manage Château Latour-Martillac and Château Lespault and a number of other Châteaux.

There are several companies involved now: http://www.kressmann.com/
