Chateau Haut Brion 1997 Chateau Haut Brion 1997 Pessac-Leognan (Graves), 1er Cru Classe Lots 25-28: Excellent levels and appearance In 2012, the most glorious tobacco, deep, damp cedary nose which carries right on to the palate. So stupendously silky, with infinite finesse. Extraordinarily long on the palate - absolutely belies the vintage. Cigars on the final note. Serena Sutcliffe, MW Lot 25 ♦ 12 hfbts (owc) Lot 26 ♦ 12 hfbts (owc) Lot 27 ♦ 12 hfbts (owc) per lot: GBP 900-1200 per lot: USD 1150-1500 per lot: EUR 1050-1400 LYING IN OCTAVIAN, WILTSHIRE Offered In Bond, available duty paid These items are in bond. The buyer has a choice of taking the item in bond (with the sale being made in bond) or taking the item duty paid. If taken in bond, VAT will not be charged on the hammer price. VAT will be charged at 20% on the buyer's premium which may not be cancelled or refunded by Sotheby's. If taken duty paid, when Sotheby's releases the property to buyers in the UK, the buyer will become the importer and must pay Sotheby's duty at the current rate and import VAT at 20% on the hammer price + duty which may not be cancelled or refunded by Sotheby's. VAT will be charged at 20% on the buyer's premium which may not be cancelled or refunded by Sotheby's. (VAT - registered buyers from the UK should note that the invoice issued by Sotheby's showing import VAT payable, is not suitable evidence for recovering that VAT. In order to recover this as input tax, a VAT registered buyer must purchase the wine in bond and clear it under his own name and VAT number. HM Customs will then issue a Form C79 which is acceptable evidence for recovering the VAT as input tax subject to the normal rules.) (All business buyers from outside the UK should refer to 'VAT Refunds from HM Customs & Excise' for information on how to recover VAT incurred on the buyer's premium). Quantity: 1
