We’re proud to unveil The Odyssey Cellar—a three-part release from one of Benchmark’s most valued collectors, who has entrusted us with over $1 million in rare and exceptional wines to date. This third acquisition from their meticulously maintained, temperature-controlled cellar showcases back-vintage icons, cult California producers, and rare Champagne—all with impeccable provenance and ready for your collection.

Part I of the Odyssey Cellar opens with a remarkable showcase of California’s most iconic producers and back-vintage treasures. From the powerful elegance of Aubert’s single-vineyard Chardonnays—including Lauren, Eastside, and Sugar Shack—to cult Cabernet Sauvignon from Diamond Creek’s Gravelly Meadow, Red Rock Terrace, and Volcanic Hill, these bottles represent the pinnacle of California winemaking. Pinot Noir lovers will find rare finds from Calera’s legendary 1980s bottlings, Sea Smoke’s highly allocated Ten and Southing, and Martinelli’s Blue Slide Ridge. The collection also features rarities like Sine Qua Non’s The Petition, perfectly cellared Heitz Martha’s Vineyard, and historic bottlings from Joseph Phelps Insignia, Dunn Howell Mountain, and Chateau Montelena in large formats. Every wine has been impeccably stored and is ready for its next chapter in the hands of a collector.

With Benchmark’s Provenance Guarantee, you can acquire these extraordinary wines with confidence. Whether expanding your cellar or seeking the perfect bottle to enjoy, this is an opportunity you don’t want to miss!

Stay tuned for Parts II and III of the Odyssey Cellar, where we unveil rare Champagne, Grand Cru Burgundy, and more back-vintage legends from one of Benchmark’s most iconic private collections.
