A record-breaking sale for bubbly after a bottle was purchased for R43-million at auction.
This bottle is like no other. The reason it is so expensive is because it is accompanied with a single NFT.

CNN reports that the magnum of Chateau Avenue Foch, 2017, comes with a single NFT that includes the digital art and intellectual property rights to an image of a 'Bored Ape Mutant' and to other collectible cartoon figures that adorn the bottle.
The magnum is the same size as two champagne bottles.
As first reported in the Wall Street Journal, the buyers of the Champagne were brothers Giovanni and Piero Buono.
The duo are Italian investors in cryptocurrencies who are active in the fashion and technology industries.
It was also confirmed by the seller that the purchase was made in dollars.
