Vente des Hospices de Beaune vintage 2022 results: a new record (M€ 29) !

The 162nd Hospices de Beaune Wine Auction, led for the 2nd time by Sotheby’s took place on Sunday November 20th. The sale reached an exceptional amount of M€ 28,98 for a total of 802 barrels i.e. an average price of €36,133 per barrel: this is an extraordinary sale, which beat all the odds with a global result that breaks the record of 2018 (€14 million for about the same number of barrels).

Despite the political, social and economic context that we are going through, French and international buyers were at the rendezvous to support the Hospices de Beaune and raised the auction resulting in a price increase of 8.28% (+0.08% for the reds and +14.18% for the whites)
compared to last year.

New record for the presidential barrel :
810 000 € for a Corton Grand Cru supporting childhood

The “Pièce des Présidents “, a Corton Grand Cru, produced from a blend of the finest terroirs of the Hospices (Corton Renardes, Corton Bressandes and Corton Chaumes) has reached a historic record of €810,000. This barrel which was a tribute to Louis-Fabrice Latour who died last September, was acquired by the maisons Louis Latour and Joseph Drouhin as well as by a group of other wine houses including obviously Albert Bichot.

The amount will be shared between two associations dedicated to the cause of childhood: Princesse Margot, sponsored by French TV presenter Flavie Flament, which accompanies children and adolescents with cancer and helps their families through this ordeal and Vision du Monde, an international solidarity charity, supported by French actor Benoit Magimel, which helps the most vulnerable children,

“We are happy to be around the Latour family, with our fellow negociants and the associations who do a wonderful job” says Albéric Bichot.

Albert Bichot: once again #1 buyer with 112 barrels worth M€ 5

A family-owned and independent Maison since 1831, Albert Bichot is a major patron in the preservation of Burgundian culture and heritage. "Buying from the Hospices de Beaune is a tradition as much as it is a commitment", says Albéric Bichot, 6th generation of the family and born at the Hospices de Beaune himself.

Albert Bichot has been the first buyer of the Hospices de Beaune wine auction for more than 25 years now. It has been the case again this year with the acquisition of 112 barrels for an amount of €4,984,000 (17.3% of the total amount of the sale) which is a historic record in the history of the house. Albéric Bichot declares: “We are delighted with this exceptional sale which will finance the major reconstruction projects of the Beaune Hospital”.
