[piofiore no banshou] vol. 4: henri - track one
1; midi
masterpost
✿
[00:05] Oh, I’ll carry that.
You can leave the heavy lifting to me.
You can open that package instead.
I think we’ve finished unpacking now.
We only brought the essentials, so it wasn’t too bad at all, thankfully.
This is our new home.
The table.
The sofa.
The curtains.
And the bed.
I prepared the basics for us, but we can replace them if you find something you like.
It’s a bit smaller than your old room but I didn’t think a huge room would be any better.
You still seem worried whenever I’m not by your side.
That’s not it?
So… You just like being spoiled?
Don’t hide your face.
Look at me.
[01:18] You look good with your hair tied up too.
Of course, it looks just as good down.
You must be tired after such a long journey.
Even if we did stop at a hotel halfway, it doesn’t change the fact we took a longer route.
I’m sorry for pushing you so hard.
But… I’m glad we could leave some flowers for the children…
We haven’t seen them since I left everything with that person, after all.
Back then, my priority was protecting you.
I knew we couldn’t stay in that place for too long, so I even left the burial to someone else.
I know better than anyone that graves mean nothing to the dead, but…
I hoped it might bring them some salvation.
I pray they rest in peace.
Let’s go back one day.
We can’t go regularly.
But we should go again soon.
Oh, that’s right.
What should we do this afternoon?
There are still a few things we need to sort out but you can stay here and rest if you’re too tired…
Really?
Then let’s go out together.
We need things for the kitchen first.
We have a fridge but it’s empty right now.
Shopping is important but we’ve just arrived.
Shall we take a look around Bordeaux?
What do you think?
I’m glad you’re finally able to be open about how you feel.
You’re so cute.
Let’s have lunch first. We can find a cafe nearby.
Then we can look around the town for a bit.
We can buy the basics just before we come home.
Let’s buy the rest tomorrow and explore a bit more if we still have time after that.
Let’s go then!
✿
[03:56] How was the food?
I’m glad it was to your taste.
The food here is quite different from where we just came from.
Lyon is famous for dishes made with tripe.
Its development was driven by the production of silk, so there are a lot of labourers living there.
So, they devised a way of making cheap ingredients taste delicious.
Bordeaux, on the other hand, flourished due to trade.
It’s also especially famous for its wine.
They use bordelaise sauce with meat and fish alike. It’s made with red wine.
It’s a lot more simple than other places we’ve lived.
Though, there is the famous Lamprey à la Bordelaise.
I don’t think I’d like it very much.
I’ll try to find a restaurant that you’ll like.
When our affairs are a bit more in order, I want us to go on a long, relaxed date.
You always make cafe au lait at home. I’ve even started drinking it when we leave the house now.
You’re looking out for me, aren’t you? I know I don’t eat very much.
You think it’s better than me just drinking espresso, don’t you?
I know hot milk is better for the stomach but I just can’t bring myself to like it.
I’m sure you know that already, though.
Anyway, we’re in an entirely new city. Is there anything you’d like to know?
I’ll tell you anything I know.
Oh, that building you can see over there is the Grand Théâtre.
Bordeaux has been a seat of the government twice in the past.
During that time, it was used as the National Assembly for the French Parliament.
Let’s go to the Opera again soon.
I’m sure they’ll show one you enjoy soon.
Is there anything else?
[06:20] You want to know why I chose to move here?
Do you remember last year, we went to Bled in Slovenia during Christmas?
When I asked you where else you wanted to go, you gave a few options.
Bavaria in Germany.
The capital of music, Vienna.
And then, Bordeaux.
You said you wanted to see the Port of the Moon at night.
Obviously, I wanted to grant one of your wishes.
But this place is very convenient for me, too.
The population is large enough and the transportation system is rather varied.
There’s a railway and boats.
We have options if something happens.
It’s also on the West coast of France, which is ideal.
I wanted to put some distance between us and Germany, considering the state of things there.
The church is still looking for you, even now.
I don’t think they’ll be able to find us easily, but apparently he put some rather troublesome traps in place before he died.
You don’t need to worry, we’re well hidden.
All this moving from city to city is just an extra precaution.
Until a while ago, I planned to allow karma to hit me with open arms.
I believed I deserved to be punished for my crimes.
If I really thought I’d one day be forgiven for what I did, I never would have plotted revenge.
But… I never planned to involve you. Any of you.
I thought I could protect you by locking you in that small house.
But it wasn’t enough.
That’s why I won’t ever let them be one step ahead of us again.
I don’t plan to hold back against anyone who tries to interrupt our life.
Obviously, it would be best if they never found us at all.
Don’t you think?
[09:01] Are you ready to go?
What do you want to see first?
Bordeaux Cathedral? It’s around 10 minutes from here.
We can see a few sights as we walk over.
✿
[09:24] Bordeaux Cathedral, or the Primatial Cathedral of St Andrew, was built in the 11th century.
Well, the foundations were. They’ve been adding to it ever since.
You can see the spire from anywhere in the city.
You could even say it’s the building that best represents Bordeaux.
It was once used for the wedding of the King of France.
It’s also famous for the sculptures of the Biblical Day of Judgement.
There really are a lot of people.
Come here.
It’s a famous sightseeing spot. It can’t be helped.
Stay close to me.
I don’t want you to leave my side.
Okay?
Good. Let’s go inside, then.
I’m sure you’ll love the inside just as much as the outside.
[10:41] Isn’t it bright?
Most big, historical churches end up being quite gloomy inside.
But here… It looks like the entire inside is shining white.
I don’t believe in God, but I think you look beautiful in this Cathedral.
It reminds me of Burlone.
I remember once, you looked after me in the church, right after I’d been hit.
I was shocked; you said exactly the kind of thing my sister would have said.
Oh. I never really told you about what kind of a person my sister was, did I?
Let me think…
Chloe was bright and sociable. She didn’t get shy around anyone.
When we were with the Falzone, she spent more time surrounded by adults than with me.
It was hard, at times.
But I never blamed her for it.
She was desperate to make a place for us in that mansion.
And now I know that love makes us do crazy things.
Where do you want to go after we finish exploring here?
Maybe we should go somewhere where we can see the entire city?
Ah, before that, you should pray while we’re here.
I’ll wait for you.
✿
[12:54] I knew you’d like The Grosse Cloche.
Can you see the Garonne River from here? It’s shaped like a crescent moon.
It’s almost blinding in the evening sun.
I can see why they call it the Port of the Moon.
So, how is it? Do you think you’ll like it here?
I’m glad.
There is just one thing weighing on my mind.
Bordeaux is a university city.
I saw a lot of men today who are the same age as you.
I know it might sound childish but a lot of them were looking at you.
If I wasn’t here, they’d most definitely try to talk to you.
I’m a bit worried.
Your shoulder?
Oh, yes… I was holding you close to me all day.
Especially in front of the cathedral and when we were in crowds.
I barely even thought about it myself.
I mean… I can certainly think of a reason why.
You said it before yourself, didn’t you?
I need to practise touching you.
It was probably because of that.
Now, I can’t relax if I’m not touching you.
It’s that time already?
I did plan on eating out tonight but maybe we should relax at home instead.
We should buy a bottle of wine and toast to our new lives.

Hi!
I've been absolutely in love with your page for quite a while now (especially when i discovered barty content because i never find it anywhere and, god, do you write well!)
Congratulations on 2k! That's actually incredible (though well deserved because wow)
I’d love to see who you match me with!
My favourite colour is like a deep, blood red. Like Bordeaux red.
(I promise i’m not insufferable) But my favourite pastimes are reading philosophy books, muy thai and playing the guitar.
Im currently back into my alice in borderland obsession but my all time favourite movie that i will never cease to obsess over is the grand budapest hotel.
My favourite animal is a black panther! (I had far too many to choose from but black panthers have always been my favourite)
I look forward to see who you’ll match me to! It’s such a bizzare combination of interests, i can’t seem to pinpoint it myself 😭
hi sweets! you're complex [in the best way!]
I wanna say Sirius and maybe James??
I think James [in all his 'limbo' glory] is quite deep and philosophical? and would love asking sometimes ridiculous deep questions and making sense of the world? I also see him as being really athletic and would maybe do muay thai with you! Guitar is so Sirius coded too.
I also see Sirius liking both Alice in Borderland and Grand Budapest Hotel!!
thanks for playing! xx

The Cast of a Webcomic I'm working on, give me some notes!
Overview:
The story is The Weiss Hotel, A horror webcomic set in the 1940s, 6 people get trapped within the spiritual realm after their stay at the grand opening of the Weiss Hotel, owned by famous Hollywood Producer, Henry Weiss. Will they be able to thwart the spirits that lurk and escape before dawn rises? Or be trapped within the curse that befalls the Weiss Hotel.
VERY brief character overviews from left to right:
Wanda Rose "The Mechanic": A mechanic who overheard a secret about the owner, a family oriented woman who would do anything to protect her family as the main breadwinner whole her husband is at war.
Belladonna Lockhart "The Movie Starlet": Our main character, a Hollywood starlet that is just rising off of the massive box office hit "A Singer in Scarlet". After being told she's forced to marry her costar for publicity she wants out of the Weiss Production company and of this marriage, but will she be able to escape? What will she be willing to do in order to do so?
Amelia Weiss "The Heiress": A young 17 year old apprentice to Henry Weiss, and the heiress to his company and fortune. Once she's of age shortly, she'll take over the hotel while her father focuses on the production company. But that wasn't always the case, her mother and older brother were recently involved in a horrific murder cold case that remains cold. Will the effects of this case continue to haunt her? What really happened to get her to be next in line?
Francis Bordeaux "The Star": Belladonna's costar, and a man who's been in showbiz longer than Belladonna. He was the one to tell her that she's marrying him, but he may have something lurking underneath. Could the marriage really be love, a publicity stunt, or something darker? What strings did he pull and what will he continue to do to get what he wants?
Richard Winkler "The Bellhop": The first employee hired at the Weiss Hotel to try to get in with Henry, he would do ANYTHING to be in movies and is a massive fan of Belladonna and Francis. What lengths would he go to in order to get his career? How MUCH is he a fan of Belladonna and Francis?
Stanley Morris "The Detective": ,A once famed detective who never failed a case. Until it came to the cold case of Ms. Irene and Charles Weiss. The witness that held his case together clammed up and lied on trial and his accusation and career fell apart. He still believes he's right and refuses to admit defeat, following his suspect to the hotel's opening (and closing) night. Just who does he suspect? And is that really all that is known about this case?
Lemme know what you think! This story is my baby, and I'd be happy to rant on and on about it!

The Year 1817
Volume 1: Fantine; Book 3: In The Year 1817; Chapter 1: The Year 1817
1817 is the year which Louis XVIII., with a certain royal assurance which was not wanting in pride, entitled the twenty-second of his reign. It is the year in which M. Bruguière de Sorsum was celebrated. All the hairdressers’ shops, hoping for powder and the return of the royal bird, were besmeared with azure and decked with fleurs-de-lys. It was the candid time at which Count Lynch sat every Sunday as church-warden in the church-warden’s pew of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, in his costume of a peer of France, with his red ribbon and his long nose and the majesty of profile peculiar to a man who has performed a brilliant action. The brilliant action performed by M. Lynch was this: being mayor of Bordeaux, on the 12th of March, 1814, he had surrendered the city a little too promptly to M. the Duke d’Angoulême. Hence his peerage. In 1817 fashion swallowed up little boys of from four to six years of age in vast caps of morocco leather with ear-tabs resembling Esquimaux mitres. The French army was dressed in white, after the mode of the Austrian; the regiments were called legions; instead of numbers they bore the names of departments; Napoleon was at St. Helena; and since England refused him green cloth, he was having his old coats turned. In 1817 Pelligrini sang; Mademoiselle Bigottini danced; Potier reigned; Odry did not yet exist. Madame Saqui had succeeded to Forioso. There were still Prussians in France. M. Delalot was a personage. Legitimacy had just asserted itself by cutting off the hand, then the head, of Pleignier, of Carbonneau, and of Tolleron. The Prince de Talleyrand, grand chamberlain, and the Abbé Louis, appointed minister of finance, laughed as they looked at each other, with the laugh of the two augurs; both of them had celebrated, on the 14th of July, 1790, the mass of federation in the Champ de Mars; Talleyrand had said it as bishop, Louis had served it in the capacity of deacon. In 1817, in the side-alleys of this same Champ de Mars, two great cylinders of wood might have been seen lying in the rain, rotting amid the grass, painted blue, with traces of eagles and bees, from which the gilding was falling. These were the columns which two years before had upheld the Emperor’s platform in the Champ de Mai. They were blackened here and there with the scorches of the bivouac of Austrians encamped near Gros-Caillou. Two or three of these columns had disappeared in these bivouac fires, and had warmed the large hands of the Imperial troops. The Field of May had this remarkable point: that it had been held in the month of June and in the Field of March (Mars). In this year, 1817, two things were popular: the Voltaire-Touquet and the snuff-box à la Charter. The most recent Parisian sensation was the crime of Dautun, who had thrown his brother’s head into the fountain of the Flower-Market.
They had begun to feel anxious at the Naval Department, on account of the lack of news from that fatal frigate, The Medusa, which was destined to cover Chaumareix with infamy and Géricault with glory. Colonel Selves was going to Egypt to become Soliman-Pasha. The palace of Thermes, in the Rue de La Harpe, served as a shop for a cooper. On the platform of the octagonal tower of the Hotel de Cluny, the little shed of boards, which had served as an observatory to Messier, the naval astronomer under Louis XVI., was still to be seen. The Duchesse de Duras read to three or four friends her unpublished Ourika, in her boudoir furnished by X. in sky-blue satin. The N’s were scratched off the Louvre. The bridge of Austerlitz had abdicated, and was entitled the bridge of the King’s Garden [du Jardin du Roi], a double enigma, which disguised the bridge of Austerlitz and the Jardin des Plantes at one stroke. Louis XVIII., much preoccupied while annotating Horace with the corner of his finger-nail, heroes who have become emperors, and makers of wooden shoes who have become dauphins, had two anxieties,—Napoleon and Mathurin Bruneau. The French Academy had given for its prize subject, The Happiness procured through Study. M. Bellart was officially eloquent. In his shadow could be seen germinating that future advocate-general of Broë, dedicated to the sarcasms of Paul-Louis Courier. There was a false Chateaubriand, named Marchangy, in the interim, until there should be a false Marchangy, named d’Arlincourt. Claire d’Albe and Malek-Adel were masterpieces; Madame Cottin was proclaimed the chief writer of the epoch. The Institute had the academician, Napoleon Bonaparte, stricken from its list of members. A royal ordinance erected Angoulême into a naval school; for the Duc d’Angoulême, being lord high admiral, it was evident that the city of Angoulême had all the qualities of a seaport; otherwise the monarchical principle would have received a wound. In the Council of Ministers the question was agitated whether vignettes representing slack-rope performances, which adorned Franconi’s advertising posters, and which attracted throngs of street urchins, should be tolerated. M. Paër, the author of Agnese, a good sort of fellow, with a square face and a wart on his cheek, directed the little private concerts of the Marquise de Sasenaye in the Rue Ville l’Évêque. All the young girls were singing the Hermit of Saint-Avelle, with words by Edmond Géraud. The Yellow Dwarf was transferred into Mirror. The Café Lemblin stood up for the Emperor, against the Café Valois, which upheld the Bourbons. The Duc de Berri, already surveyed from the shadow by Louvel, had just been married to a princess of Sicily. Madame de Staël had died a year previously. The body-guard hissed Mademoiselle Mars. The grand newspapers were all very small. Their form was restricted, but their liberty was great. The Constitutionnel was constitutional. La Minerve called Chateaubriand Chateaubriant. That t made the good middle-class people laugh heartily at the expense of the great writer. In journals which sold themselves, prostituted journalists, insulted the exiles of 1815.
David had no longer any talent, Arnault had no longer any wit, Carnot was no longer honest, Soult had won no battles; it is true that Napoleon had no longer any genius. No one is ignorant of the fact that letters sent to an exile by post very rarely reached him, as the police made it their religious duty to intercept them. This is no new fact; Descartes complained of it in his exile. Now David, having, in a Belgian publication, shown some displeasure at not receiving letters which had been written to him, it struck the royalist journals as amusing; and they derided the prescribed man well on this occasion. What separated two men more than an abyss was to say, the regicides, or to say the voters; to say the enemies, or to say the allies; to say Napoleon, or to say Buonaparte. All sensible people were agreed that the era of revolution had been closed forever by King Louis XVIII., surnamed “The Immortal Author of the Charter.” On the platform of the Pont-Neuf, the word Redivivus was carved on the pedestal that awaited the statue of Henry IV. M. Piet, in the Rue Thérèse, No. 4, was making the rough draft of his privy assembly to consolidate the monarchy. The leaders of the Right said at grave conjunctures, “We must write to Bacot.” MM. Canuel, O’Mahoney, and De Chappedelaine were preparing the sketch, to some extent with Monsieur’s approval, of what was to become later on “The Conspiracy of the Bord de l’Eau”—of the waterside. L’Épingle Noire was already plotting in his own quarter. Delaverderie was conferring with Trogoff. M. Decazes, who was liberal to a degree, reigned. Chateaubriand stood every morning at his window at No. 27 Rue Saint-Dominique, clad in footed trousers, and slippers, with a madras kerchief knotted over his gray hair, with his eyes fixed on a mirror, a complete set of dentist’s instruments spread out before him, cleaning his teeth, which were charming, while he dictated The Monarchy according to the Charter to M. Pilorge, his secretary. Criticism, assuming an authoritative tone, preferred Lafon to Talma. M. de Féletez signed himself A.; M. Hoffmann signed himself Z. Charles Nodier wrote Thérèse Aubert. Divorce was abolished. Lyceums called themselves colleges. The collegians, decorated on the collar with a golden fleur-de-lys, fought each other apropos of the King of Rome. The counter-police of the château had denounced to her Royal Highness Madame, the portrait, everywhere exhibited, of M. the Duc d’Orléans, who made a better appearance in his uniform of a colonel-general of hussars than M. the Duc de Berri, in his uniform of colonel-general of dragoons—a serious inconvenience. The city of Paris was having the dome of the Invalides regilded at its own expense. Serious men asked themselves what M. de Trinquelague would do on such or such an occasion; M. Clausel de Montals differed on divers points from M. Clausel de Coussergues; M. de Salaberry was not satisfied. The comedian Picard, who belonged to the Academy, which the comedian Molière had not been able to do, had The Two Philiberts played at the Odéon, upon whose pediment the removal of the letters still allowed THEATRE OF THE EMPRESS to be plainly read. People took part for or against Cugnet de Montarlot. Fabvier was factious; Bavoux was revolutionary. The Liberal, Pélicier, published an edition of Voltaire, with the following title: Works of Voltaire, of the French Academy. “That will attract purchasers,” said the ingenious editor. The general opinion was that M. Charles Loyson would be the genius of the century; envy was beginning to gnaw at him—a sign of glory; and this verse was composed on him:—
“Even when Loyson steals, one feels that he has paws.”
As Cardinal Fesch refused to resign, M. de Pins, Archbishop of Amasie, administered the diocese of Lyons. The quarrel over the valley of Dappes was begun between Switzerland and France by a memoir from Captain, afterwards General Dufour. Saint-Simon, ignored, was erecting his sublime dream. There was a celebrated Fourier at the Academy of Science, whom posterity has forgotten; and in some garret an obscure Fourier, whom the future will recall. Lord Byron was beginning to make his mark; a note to a poem by Millevoye introduced him to France in these terms: a certain Lord Baron. David d’Angers was trying to work in marble. The Abbé Caron was speaking, in terms of praise, to a private gathering of seminarists in the blind alley of Feuillantines, of an unknown priest, named Félicité-Robert, who, at a latter date, became Lamennais. A thing which smoked and clattered on the Seine with the noise of a swimming dog went and came beneath the windows of the Tuileries, from the Pont Royal to the Pont Louis XV.; it was a piece of mechanism which was not good for much; a sort of plaything, the idle dream of a dream-ridden inventor; an utopia—a steamboat. The Parisians stared indifferently at this useless thing. M. de Vaublanc, the reformer of the Institute by a coup d’état, the distinguished author of numerous academicians, ordinances, and batches of members, after having created them, could not succeed in becoming one himself. The Faubourg Saint-Germain and the pavilion de Marsan wished to have M. Delaveau for prefect of police, on account of his piety. Dupuytren and Récamier entered into a quarrel in the amphitheatre of the School of Medicine, and threatened each other with their fists on the subject of the divinity of Jesus Christ. Cuvier, with one eye on Genesis and the other on nature, tried to please bigoted reaction by reconciling fossils with texts and by making mastodons flatter Moses.
M. François de Neufchâteau, the praiseworthy cultivator of the memory of Parmentier, made a thousand efforts to have pomme de terre [potato] pronounced parmentière, and succeeded therein not at all. The Abbé Grégoire, ex-bishop, ex-conventionary, ex-senator, had passed, in the royalist polemics, to the state of “Infamous Grégoire.” The locution of which we have made use—passed to the state of—has been condemned as a neologism by M. Royer Collard. Under the third arch of the Pont de Jéna, the new stone with which, the two years previously, the mining aperture made by Blücher to blow up the bridge had been stopped up, was still recognizable on account of its whiteness. Justice summoned to its bar a man who, on seeing the Comte d’Artois enter Notre Dame, had said aloud: “Sapristi! I regret the time when I saw Bonaparte and Talma enter the Bel Sauvage, arm in arm.” A seditious utterance. Six months in prison. Traitors showed themselves unbuttoned; men who had gone over to the enemy on the eve of battle made no secret of their recompense, and strutted immodestly in the light of day, in the cynicism of riches and dignities; deserters from Ligny and Quatre-Bras, in the brazenness of their well-paid turpitude, exhibited their devotion to the monarchy in the most barefaced manner.
This is what floats up confusedly, pell-mell, for the year 1817, and is now forgotten. History neglects nearly all these particulars, and cannot do otherwise; the infinity would overwhelm it. Nevertheless, these details, which are wrongly called trivial,—there are no trivial facts in humanity, nor little leaves in vegetation,—are useful. It is of the physiognomy of the years that the physiognomy of the centuries is composed. In this year of 1817 four young Parisians arranged “a fine farce.”

Post Auction Report of Spring 2024
In the beautiful spring time of the past two months, we hosted three significant auctions, Spring Live auction at our Eden Terrace sale-room followed by its online Buy Now sale, Special Live Auction at Rees Hotel and its online Buy Now sale, then our regular Late Spring Online auction. We showcased an extensive collection of wines, drawing significant interest from bidders worldwide.
All three auctions successfully highlighted the vibrancy of the wine market and demonstrated a robust interest in both French and New Zealand wines, with back-vintage Burgundy and Bordeaux wines leading in terms of highest sales. The presence of quality Italian wines also contributed to a diversified offering that appealed to a wide range of bidders.
With competitive bidding and a strong turnout, both buyers and sellers can look forward to future events with optimism. Collectors are encouraged to take advantage of the current trends by diversifying their collections with sought-after wines from these regions.
In our Spring Live Auction, Australia emerged as the best-selling region, particularly driven by the demand for Penfolds wines, which have a strong reputation for quality and aging potential. 1990 Penfolds Grange Bin 95 scored the highest winning bid at $916.50 while the 2-bottle lot of 1998 Penfolds Grange Bin 95 sold for $1833. New Zealand wines, particularly Cabernet Sauvignon and blends, showed solid performance, with several lots achieving prices between $120-$660. The 12-bottle OWC of 2019 Stonyridge Vineyard Larose sold for $1692 while 6-bottle lot of 2020 Te Mata Estate Coleraine sold for $775.50 and 2-bottle lot of 2015 Destiny Bay Magna Praemia scored $752.
Some other highlights include, 1985 Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1er Cru Classe sold for $846, 2016 Domaine Francois Raveneau Montee de Tonnerre selling for $587.50, and NV Bollinger Rose 3000ml sold for $634.50.
Live Auction at The Rees was a resounding success, showcasing an impressive array of fine and rare wines, whilst local Central Otago Pinot Noir was hotly contested in the sale room, the buy-now bidders demonstrated their clear preference for Burgundy wines, particularly those from esteemed producers. France, particularly the Burgundy region, dominated the auction, with multiple lots from renowned producers like Domaine de la Romanee-Conti and Armand Rousseau achieving best performance.
The highest hammer win was scored by 2016 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti La Tache Grand Cru, which sold for $ 7990. 2013 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Richebourg garnered the most attention, with six active bidders vying for this exceptional wine, before it ultimately sold for $5875. Not to mention a set of (3) 2014 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Echezeaux Grand Cru achieved $12337.50.
Other highlights include 1990 Chateau d’Yquem 5000ml sold for $5875, 2017 Domaine Armand Rousseau Chambertin Grand Cru sold for $2350, a vertical vintage of 2008-2013 Rippon Emma’s Block Pinot Noir sold for $1351.25 and OWC 2021 Felton Road Block 5 Pinot Noir 3000ml scored $1128. There was also a charity component to this auction with all proceeds from Lots 83 – 111, including all fees, being donated to the Central Otago Pinot Noir Charitable Trust. Through the generous bids we were able to raise $4853.44.
In our most recent Late Spring Online Auction, we featured lots with a wide price range, from low-end sales around $20 for sparkling wines to premium wines selling above $700.
The standout lots were 1976 Chateau Cheval Blanc and 2016 Domaine Gros Frere et Soeur Grands-Echezeaux Grand Cru, which both achieved $705. The highest multi-lot win once again went for a 12-bottle OWC of 2016 Stonyridge Larose which sold for $1692. Some other notable sales included 2002 Tenuta dell’Ornellaia sold for $376 and 2015 Passage Rock Magnus 1500ml scored $235.
As we look toward the fast-approaching 2025, the wine market holds tremendous promise, driven by an ever-growing appreciation for fine wines and the passion of collectors and connoisseurs alike. The increasing interest in diverse regions and unique vintages suggests a vibrant landscape ahead, where both seasoned collectors and new enthusiasts can thrive. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all bidders and consignors for their participation and trust in our platform. Your support not only fuels the excitement of the auction but also plays a crucial role in fostering a dynamic community that celebrates the art of wine. Together, we are poised to cultivate a flourishing market that honours tradition while embracing new approaches to wine.
Our next sale will be our final Live Auction of 2024, starting from 6pm on December 3rd. This is another sale filled with outstanding wines, showcasing a range of values with wonderful provenance. Catalogue will be published soon so be sure to subscribe to our newsletter to be the first ones to know. We finish the year with our New Year’s Online only auction that will start on the 26th December and run through to 7pm 5th January.
