Special Instructions

These wines have been provided by private collectors who are parents and friends of Sage Hill School.  The wines have been kept in temperature-controlled conditions since their acquisition, but in some cases that acquisition has been from other collectors, auctions and retailers.  In addition, as wines age, bottle variation can occur, causing some bottles to age poorly.  Neither Sage Hill School nor the donors of these wines can provide assurance of their current or future drinkability.  Purchaser is acquiring these wines at their own risk.
