We are thrilled to host our third La Paulée auction on Thursday, March 6 and Saturday, March 8, featuring nearly 2,000 exceptional lots and an estimated $10 million in sales! This two-day extravaganza brings together eighteen direct consignments from some of Burgundy’s most esteemed producers, alongside some highly significant featured collections. No collection is closer to our hearts than The Last of the Legendary Personal Collection of Martine Saunier, who recently left us this year shortly after celebrating her 91st birthday. We have republished her obituary inside, which is an inside look at the amazing life she led. It is truly a bittersweet moment for all of us here at Acker, but Martine would have wanted us to forget the bitter and celebrate her life and collection to the fullest, so that is what we will do. As always, she has shared many bottles from her collection to share throughout the weeks in SF and NYC, all the more reason to get on out and join us for two weeks of celebrations filled with incredible tastings, lunches, and dinners, all integral to what has become the world’s greatest Burgundy wine party. In addition to these extraordinary events hosted by both La Paulée and Acker, we look forward to hosting two exclusive bidding parties in New York on the 6th and 8th!
