Christie’s Hong Kong started the Spring season with its sale of Finest and Rarest Wines (Part I ) on Friday, with 91% of its lots sold, totalling $6.80. This is a very strong result, however it should be noted that recent wine sales in Hong Kong were all white gloves - ie 100% sold. Maybe some buyers' fatigue. The two top lots of the day were both La Tâche – Vintage 1961 (6 magnums), each of which sold for $92,448. The 1982 vintage was also quite popular, with cases of Pétrus and Lafite Rothschild among the top selling lots .
