Oh, Just a $200,000 Pigeon

In the movie Stardust Memories, Woody Allen echoed the sentiment of many Americans when he referred to pigeons as ‘rats with wings’. Each society has their own set of rules when it comes to the ranking and treatment of different animals, so it comes as no surprise that the storied past time of pigeon racing, currently gaining popularity in China, has yet to catch on in the US.

Pigeon racing has rich cultural roots all over western Europe, and training carrier pigeons has been the privilege of noblemen throughout history. It is said the Rothschild family banking dynasty benefited from receiving advance news of Napoleon’s defeat at Waterloo from their homing pigeon. Modern pigeon racing first gained momentum in the mid 19th century, when Belgian practitioners of the sport began breeding the animals for speed and endurance. Similar to horse-racing in the US, opportunities to bet on racing pigeons have become big sponsored events in China.

The most expensive pigeon in the world was sold to a wealthy Chinese buyer, who shelled out $200,000 at a Belgium auction for a highly pedigreed racing pigeon. Known as Blue Prince, this ‘designer’ pigeon seems a breed apart from the plump, trash-foraging birds commonly seen in urban parks. Currently living out his retirement on a Chinese roof top, Blue Prince is no longer expected to race, but was purchased to breed more speedy champions like himself.

Most Expensive White Wine Ever Sold, Château d’Yquem

"Last year the most expensive bottle of white wine to ever sold went for an impressive £75,000 (around $118,000 USD). The wine was a 1811 Château d’Yquem from the southern part of the Bordeaux vineyards in France.

Most white wines are not meant to be aged, but the sweet white wine from Château d’Yquem is famous for being able to be stored almost indefinitely without spoiling. Many attribute the wine’s favorability and complexity to the unique microclimate on the hills of the chateau’s large estate.

The 1811 vintage was renowned for positive reviews and as one of the best years ever in the Bordeaux region. Wine Advocate’s Robert Parker rated the wine a perfect 100 points in 1995. The year 1811 is known as a “Comet Vintage”. The Flaugergues comet of 1811 was the most impressive comet visible from earth until the more recent Hal-Bop comet of 1997. Winemakers and enthusiasts somewhat superstitiously attribute good characteristics to wine in the years where comets are visible from earth.

The Antique Wine Company sold the rare and impressive bottle to the wine connoisseur and private collector Christian Vanneque. Christian Vanneque was previously the head Sommelier at the La Tour d’Argent restaurant in Paris. The bottle will go to his new restaurant SIP Sunset Grill in Bali, Indonesia."
