Record Wine Lot Sold to Chinese Wine Lover

There may be a global economic crunch these days but fine wine connoisseurs are not feeling its effects. Recently, $500,000 was paid for twenty-seven bottles of various vintages of Romanee Conti. The well-known Burgundy wines are not expected to be kept as an investment for the wealthy Chinese connoisseur that bought the lot which he most likely intends to enjoy himself. His purchase is the highest price paid for a single lot yet to date at the Antique Wine Company in London. If he feels like sharing I would be happy to taste a little Romanee Conti myself.
