Cru Wine’s Post

🍾Uncork the latest insights into the 2024 Champagne market! 🥂 Dive into Cru Wine's comprehensive report to see what's bubbling up in the world of fine wines & spirits!

Thank you to Winston Art Group and Heritage Family Offices, LLP for an engaging evening discussing the intersection of wine, art, and collectibles. We delved into the wine markets and their collectible counterparts, focusing on three key concepts and their paired wine and art selections. 🍷 Bereche & Fils, a grower champagne, represents an emerging category with potential risks but significant upside. Notably, wines like Jacques Selosse have seen a remarkable 21% annual increase at auction over the last 5 years, making them appealing for The Cask100 Fund. 🍷 Ornellaia Serre Nuove exemplifies the middle market, showcasing the relative value of Italian wines, especially Super Tuscans. Despite recent market challenges, wines like the 2021 Ornellaia have seen a substantial 24% retail price increase since March. 🍷 Leoville Las Cases 'Clos du Marquis' symbolizes the traditional Bordeaux market, known for its history and stability. While these wines may not yield huge returns, they have demonstrated consistency. Despite a temporary drop post-Covid, Leoville Las Cases has seen an overall increase over the past 5 years. We are looking forward to more discussions in the future!

WD Bordeaux 100, the largest market index available for Bordeaux wines (100 wines over 14 vintages, 2 Billion Euros) decreased by 0.8% in March 2024, by 1.4% in 2024, and by 7.6% over the past year. The WD Bordeaux 1CC of the top 10 crus saw a significant decrease of 11.8% over the year. Lafite Rothschild fell by 15% over the same period, while Carruades de Lafite dropped by 16.2%. Other regions are also affected by this structural decline. The level of B2B offers in the Wine Decider database reached a new record at 1.480 billion euros.

The factor of ageing in Fine wine 🍷 When it comes to vintage Champagne, age is the most influential factor on appreciation, certain highly anticipated releases do see immediate price increases. In general, values tend to remain steady for the first few years after release. Significant price growth starts to occur as secondary market availability begins to diminish, typically between five and ten years thereafter. Case study-6 :Taittinger Comtes de Champagne 2008 🍷 Taittinger Comtes de Champagne 2008 vintage released in autumn 2020 to critical acclaim. This resulted in an immediate 30% price jump from £535(R12 305) per 6 bottles to £700(R16 100) , and in 2022 had further increased to £1,150(R26 450)per 6 bottles.

One of the most recognizable products in our portfolio is an iconic brandy #Stock84. ➡️ This famous liquor is a part of our heritage. Its name celebrates the fact that the company was founded in 1884. The history of its name is fascinating and related to the changes in the legislation of the names of alcohols, in this case cognac vs brandy. 📖 Long story short in 1935, '1884 Cognac Fine Champagne' appeared alongside the 'Cognac Stock Medicinal' brand, which in 1955 became the current 'Brandy Stock 84', which is a part of Stock Spirits' contemporary portfolio. The change of name from cognac to brandy resulted from the 1947 agreements, according to which the name cognac was reserved for distillates originating in France 🇫🇷 Then, the Italian-French Convention of 28 May 1948, ratified in Italy on 18 July 1949, stipulates that the term 'cognac' is reserved exclusively for wine distillates produced in the French region of Cognac, while similar products of other origins, whether Italian or French, produced outside the Cognac region are called brandy. The name #BRANDY itself, is derived from the Dutch "brandewijn" and translates to "burnt wine" ✅ Voila, that's the whole history in a nutshell 😃 #StockSpirits #Stock #different #types #flavours
