Wine auction[edit]

Not worthy of comment in the article, but perhaps of interest to a passing researcher, might be the auction, by Messrs. Christie, Manson & Woods, on Monday 9 July 1877, “Of The Extensive and Valuable Cellar Of Old Wines, Lying at Gunnergate Hall, Yorkshire; Comprising Upwards of 1200 Dozens, Supplied By The Best Houses, Including Fine Pale Gold and Brown Sherry; Amontillado and Manzanilla; Port, of the Vintages of 1834, 1840, 1842, 1844, 1847, 1851, 1854, 1858, and 1870; Château Lafite, Latour, Margaux, Haut Brion, La Rose, Leoville, Beycheville, and St. Julien, of the ﬁnest Vintages, in quarts and Magnums; Fine Champagne, Clicquot’s, Mumm’s, Ruinart’s, Roederer’s, and Roussillon’s; Sparkling Hock and Moselle, Johannisberg, Steinberg, and Burgundy; Chablis and Sauterne; Old Madeira; Fine Old Brandy, and Liqueurs; The greater part of which was laid down by the late John Vaughan, Esq., who died in 1867, and the remainder by his son, Mr. Thomas Vaughan”.

Well, it could possibly be mentioned. It indicates Vaughan's rise in social status. The detail is fascinating. Chiswick Chap (talk) 05:54, 16 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
