The Scholarly Cellar of Dr. Gordon Ku
Live Auction: 4 September 2020 • 10:00 PM EDT • Hong Kong
Sotheby’s Wine will present a spectacular selection of wines from the private cellar of Dr. Gordon Ku at Sotheby’s Hong Kong Gallery. Comprising over 850 lots estimated at $3.5-5 million, the sale will offer some of the world’s most revered wines amassed during fifty years of collecting.
A discerning wine lover as well as a gastronome, Dr. Gordon Ku’s wine collecting began modestly from when he was training as a physician in London in the early 1970s. Over the course of the following fifty years, he never ceased to explore his interest and appreciation for the finest wines, which grew in tandem with the collection, resulting in this great private cellar.
The collection is headlined by a sensational line-up of Burgundy in a vast range of formats and vintages spanning four decades. The sale also boasts an array of show-stopping Bordeaux, a magnificent Rhône selection, plus a superlative 1974 vintage from the legendary Heitz Martha’s Vineyard, adding to the New World allure of this collection.
Cheers.
