Hidden Treasure
DaVinci Code is wringing in ticket sales. NBC is about to launch Treasure Hunters. Even the wine world is experiencing this hidden treasure phenomenon. Christies just sold an exceptional collection which had been hidden since World War II - when the owners stored it to avoid Nazi theft. These bottles of Bordeaux included Margaux 1928 and 1929, Haut Brion and Mouton Rothschild 1926, Yquem 1924 and Climens 1919. The historical significance is amazing, in addition to the value of the wine itself. I wonder where I can dig up some 80 year old Bordeaux. (Decanter)
