LONDON.- Bonhams announced that a case of Romanee-Conti from the 1990 vintage sold for £126,500 in the Fine & Rare Wine sale that took place at Bonhams, New Bond Street on the 8th September. At over £10,000 per bottle and £1,750 a glass, the case will undoubtedly be well looked after. The sale realised over £760,000, with particular interest in the older vintages on offer. Burgundy took the top spot; apart from the case of 1990, a case of Romanee-Conti 1988 sold for £74,750; both cases were bought by a European buyer. The Domaine de la Romanee-Conti is very clearly the leading producer in the region and the only one to have established itself as a major brand. The price of Romanee-Conti has shown, on average, a rise of 50% over the last year, according to Liv-ex. With great international interest in the Domaine’ wines, Bonhams will be offering further cases of both Romanee-Conti 1988 and 1990 in the Fine & Rare
