Caisse de vins du Domaine de la Romanée Conti - Vinoptimo

The fine wine market has become extremely complex.

 

  • Fluctuating prices: Some bottles from legendary properties such as Lafite Rothschild 1982 or 1986 may experience record increases followed by a period of stability or even decline.
  • Ever-changing quality: Understanding the maturing process of each vintage requires constant monitoring.
  • Seasonality of sales: For example, the most prized ready-to-drink vintages see price hikes during the holiday season.
  • Diversification: Buyers diversify their cellars with wines other than great growths. They create a scarcity of “rising stars,” which in turn can lead to fads.
  • Globalization of markets: France and the United States no longer set the tone for the market. In Asia, Russia and Brazil, the “super-rich” have become key players. One needs to be active on the market to have an overall vision.
  • Market variability: Take the example of China. The market heats up and then cools off because of domestic policy decisions affecting luxury goods.
  • Château policies: The largest estates often require clients to buy all their ranges of wines. A large retail chain will quickly dispose of its stock of classified fine wines.
  • Multiple sales networks: There are over 20,000 wine merchants, auction houses, wine shops, restaurant cellars and collectors around the world.
  • A unique value for each bottle: Bottles are valued according to the condition of the wine, its origin, the way it was stored and its traceability.
  • Volatility: The Liv-ex Fine Wine 100, an index based on 100 fine wines, is a benchmark. Prices are not universal. Significant variations in transaction prices are common.
