A GENEVA auction house raked in more than US$4 million on Sunday for a collection of "grand crus" from Burgundy's renowned Domaine de la Romanee-Conti wine estate.

The 1,407 bottles that went under the hammer beat expectations and sold for a total of 4.2 million Swiss francs (S$5.85 million), with a single three-litre jeroboam of 1999 Romanee-Conti snatched up for 60,000 Swiss francs by an anonymous buyer.
