The sale offered more than 200 lots of wine, including rarities from producer Henri Jayer, vintages from Petrus and selections from Domaine de la Romanee-Conti as part of Christie’s Hong Kong Luxury Week.
Hong Kong businessman Joseph Lau sold a collection of fine wine for HK$72.9 million ($12 million) in an auction, fetching more than US$41,000 ($52,859.04) a bottle for some rare French vintages.
All of the wine lots sold, and the amount raised exceeded the US$4.5 million estimate from Christie’s, according to a statement Thursday from the auction house.
