Singaporean wine investor Soo Hoo Khoon Peng uncorked the 1899 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti bottle, a 127-year journey from vineyard to cellar to glass, at Auprés du Clocher in Burgundy. Its provenance traces to the de Brou de Laurière family, and experts estimate the bottle at about €100,000. The ungrafted-vine wine survived wars through meticulous cellaring, yielding an amber hue and notes of dried flowers, tea and preserved plum. Soo Hoo called the moment one of learning and human connection, not a display of wealth, with Aubert de Villaine in attendance.
Château de Savigny-lès-Beaune, a 700-year-old French château in Burgundy, is home to the world's largest private fighter aircraft collection, comprising around 100 aircraft of different makes and provenances, as well as vintage cars, motorcycles, tractors, and fire trucks. The château also has its own vineyards and wine-tasting rooms. The estate attracts around 30,000 visitors every year. The current owner and manager, Christophe Pont, aims to preserve and continue his father's work and hopes to house the aircraft collection in an indoor museum in the future.
