Chris Munro, Head of London Wine Department commented: “A tremendous result for the Fine & Rare wine sale in London as prices for both Bordeaux and Burgundy remain strong. We witnessed competitive international bidding throughout the sale as all three exceptional private collections performed well. Highlights included three bottles of Romanée-Conti 1999, making an impressive £25,850, whilst a full case of 1990 Pétrus sold for £27,025. We look forward to our next sale in London on 4th June Finest & Rarest Wines and Spirits.”
