All wines are inspected and stored in the climate-controlled Charles J. Beard wine cellar at WGBH. Marie Keep, Director of Fine Wines at Skinner, will be the auctioneer. Among the offerings will be a 2000 Chateau Petrus, a 1992 Opus One, a 1963 Croft Vintage Port, a 1996 Robert Mondavi Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, one magnum, signed by Julia Child and Robert Mondavi with a picture of Robert Mondavi signing the bottle.
