We’re excited to present The Benefactor’s Vault, an exceptional private collection from Dallas spanning the great estates of France and Italy alongside some of America’s most coveted producers. A passion for Old World wines led this collector directly to Europe, where he sourced bottles for delivery to his Dallas storage facility. Château Margaux, Antinori Solaia, and Ornellaia anchor the collection, joined by prized allocations from Screaming Eagle, Quilceda Creek, and Schrader.

The care behind this cellar is every bit as compelling as the wines themselves. Maintained at Classic Wine’s professional storage facility and in a professionally built home cellar, the collection traveled to Benchmark by temperature-controlled truck. Now, with the owner releasing a portion of his extensive holdings, collectors have an opportunity to secure standout Bordeaux, Super Tuscans, and American reds from a carefully maintained private cellar.
