【蘋果日報】蘇富比舉行洋酒拍賣會,有香檳王之稱的唐培里儂( Dom Perignon)首次推出的至尊粉紅香檳,一批 30瓶以 133萬元成交,平均每瓶約 4.4萬元,比估價高出 3成多,創下香檳單一批次拍賣的世界紀錄。有酒評家指出,現時內地豪客尚未學懂喝香檳,但相信香檳很快也會在內地流行,屆時價格將進一步被搶高。
香港蘇富比前晚舉行洋酒拍賣,拍賣品都是法國酒莊存放在私家酒窖內的陳年珍藏,直接運送來港拍賣,酒品存放狀態甚佳。全部拍賣品共賣得 2,000多萬元,比估計高出 4成多。
香檳王 Dom Perignon
拍賣品中最矚目的是唐培里儂首次推出的至尊粉紅香檳,一批 30瓶,包括 1966年、 1978年、 1982年、 1985年、 1988年及 1990年等 6個稀有年份。經過一番競投,以 133.1萬元成交,比估價高出 3成,由亞洲收藏家買得,成交價也刷新單一批次香檳拍賣價的世界紀錄。
唐培里儂是世界知名的法國酒莊,有香檳王之稱。酒莊只選最優質的葡萄來釀酒,若當年葡萄收成質量欠佳,便寧願停產。今次首次面世的至尊粉紅香檳,是當香檳釀成之後,繼續在酒窖陳釀 10年或以上,令酒味更為豐富成熟。
另外,多批 Cheval Blanc紅酒以 22.9萬元至 55.6萬元成交,亦刷新了不同年份及瓶裝的世界紀錄。
「飲完一杯想再飲一杯」
曾獲邀試飲至尊粉紅香檳的《酒經月刊》總編輯劉致新表示,當日試飲的是 1990年,「好精采,飲完一杯就想再飲一杯,好香,好幼滑」。
他表示,喜慶場合常會開香檳,是由於打開香檳會有一下響亮的聲音,但其實飲香檳任何場合都適合,令人有開心的感覺,不似飲紅酒講究飯前或飯後。在香港飲香檳的人不少,一般 1,000多至 2,000元一瓶已屬貴價。內地人暫未學懂喝香檳,因為中國人不喜喝冰凍、有氣泡及酸度高的酒,需要時間適應,但估計香檳很快也會在內地流行,屆時價格將被搶高。
