Auction introduction: One of the world’s most prominent art collectors, Asian entrepreneur Pierre Chen is also a passionate and equally dedicated collector of wine. Next month, on 9 October 2021, Sotheby’s will present The Art of Living: Legendary Wines from the Cellar of Pierre Chen, as part of its Hong Kong Autumn Sale Series. Centred around the finest wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy and beyond, the sale provides a first glimpse into his extraordinary collection of wines, amassed over thirty years. The collection is further distinguished by Magnums of Faiveley Musigny in vintages spanning 2015 to 2017, produced from Chen’s very own vineyard in Burgundy and here making their first ever appearance at auction. Charting the evolution of Chen’s varied tastes over the years, the sale also shines a light on his passion for matching food with wine.
