Saturday 2022-05-21 The day with "The Visionary's Spectacular Cellar" Wine Auction at Christies Hong Kong
829 Lots from a "Spectacular Wine Cellar" - We may quote Christie's:
"The visionary collector spent more than two decades assembling his collection, and is a passionate wine lover who loves to taste, listen, learn, and above all, share great bottles with friends and family. His generosity extends to his alma mater as the sale proceeds will be donated to London Business School to support its commitment to have an impact on the way the world does business and the way business impacts the world."
As selected and hand-picked as the wines are, the clearer it becomes to the observer and the wine connoisseur with what wine understanding and with what visionary gifts the compilation of the wine cellar has taken place, it must be clear to everyone that this "art" and by this we mean both the art of the wine makers and the art of the compilation has and must have its price.
Christie's says about the appreciation of the fantastic selection:
"Christie’s Wine & Spirits Department proudly announces “THE VISIONARY’S SPECTACULAR CELLAR – Sold to Further the Impact of London Business School” from an esteemed and celebrated wine connoisseur, to be offered across two sales: a live auction on 21 May at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre with over 800 lots and a total low estimate of HK$92.5 million/ US$11.9 million; and an online auction commencing in the week of 23 May, with over 550 lots and a total low estimate around HK$17.5 million/ US$2.2 million. With a combined total low estimate of over HK$100 million /US$12.9 million,THE VISIONARY’S SPECTACULAR CELLAR will be the most valuable single-owner collection with the highest estimated total value ever for the category, to be offered at Christie’s."
It was therefore clear that the highest prices in this wine auction would take on a new dimension and so it was also determined in the auction analysis.
Many top prices were simply swept away and here we give you just a few examples of the wine price records achieved.
Twelve wine bottles of Armand Rousseau Chambertin vintage 2005 (750ml), changed wine enthusiast for 6.190,00 €. In a bidding war that is second to none, the fine wine price rocked until 6.190,00 € per 750 ml bottle and realized this fantastic world record for fine wine prices.
Since the last wine price on the 2022-03-03 at Hart Davis Hart Wine Auction which attained a wine value of 4.815,50 €, the momentary appreciation is 1.374,50 € or +28,54 %.
