Prestonfield House

Pricing here is in pounds sterling. This is a serious 509 bottle list anchored by Sauternes via Chateau d'Yquem in real depth, Penfolds Grange, Vega Sicilia's Unico, Trimbach's Clos Sainte Hune Riesling, Dom Perignon, and Bordeaux's Chateau Cos d'Estournel. Red leads at 297 against 122 white, with 40 dessert and fortified bottlings backing up that Yquem depth. Pricing spans 10 to 7,000 pounds with a median of 170, so there is real drinking below the trophy tier. The 17 glass pours are a modest slice of a list this size, so steer glass drinkers carefully toward the lower end while the depth plays out in bottles.
