(MENAFN- PR Newswire) The auction supported a Vatican charitable project. The winning bidder's funds were remitted directly to the project coordinator at the Vatican.

Château Le Fantôme is believed to be the only non commercial vineyard in Pomerol, France.
The château sits on soils first planted by the Hospitallers of St. John of Jerusalem during the first centuries of the last millennium according to stone markers found on the property, making this one of the oldest vineyards of Bordeaux.

The cross on the bottle's design pays homage to its past while the artwork by Oliviero Rainaldi, titled Calma Tu Alma, embraces the future.
