Holy sh*t Dynamic. I'm no sommelier but the Mouton Rothshild is one of the true greats you'll come across. The Baron Philippe as well.

We have a healthy collection of Rothschild at the parents place but the earliest are 78's. You're a lucky man!

Looks like that last one is worth $49.00... I'll gladly pay that for it.

I'd guess a few k for the collection. If that Rothschild was a 59, that would be worth a couple k alone!

It is a '59.

From what I gather (just found a listing), it's just over $3k.

The other singles range from $200-600.

I can't find any info on the Cruse set of four though. Any ideas?

The catch is that some of the bottles have had some minor leakage, which I assume makes them worth $0.

So most importantly, where do I sell 'em?

To me.

I have 3.42$ here. That's the best offer you'll get.

Here's a couple of places to get a rough idea of ratings and values.

eRobertParker.com: The Independent Consumer's Guide to Fine Wine

Home | Wine Spectator

Looks like you have a few good ones there.
