Rare white truffle fetches record price at auction
A Hong Kong property tycoon and his wife have reportedly paid around €131,200 for a huge Italian white truffle, which may be the most expensive purchased.
Gordon Wu and his wife outbid connoisseurs from France and Italy to win the 3.3lb Alba white truffle from an international auction, a spokeswoman for the Ritz-Carlton hotel, which hosted the Hong Kong part of the auction, said.
