I am the director of an interfaith nonprofit agency that helps the
elderly in our community, Faith in Action (http://
www.faithinaction4seniors.org). We are having an auction in about a
month, and we were donated what appears to be a pretty good bottle of
wine for the auction. It's a 1982 Chateau Las Cases. What I can gather
from google is that this bottle got a perfect score from both Berrys
and Robert Parker. It seems to sell on-line at about $700 - $1000.

While I appreciate a nice bottle of wine myself, this is completely
out of my league. I have worries that this bottle will not sell for
what it worth. Of the couple hundred people who might come to the
auction who know and love our little agency, will we have the folks
that understand that this is a valuable item?

Ideas on how to promote this so we get wine enthusiasts to come to
auction, so we can get the right price?

What do you think should be the minimum price we should accept for
this bottle?

Thank you for your advice.

Warm Regards,
