How do I Benefit from Fine Wine as an Asset Class?
Performance
The global demand for Fine Wine as well as high-yield wine investments is increasing continuously. In addition, the long-term investment horizon and the illiquidity of the wine market have a very positive effect on the performance. As soon as the wines are sold, you benefit from this increase in value like an owner.

Our Investment Criteria
Analysis of the wine market
When selecting our Fine Wine investments, the general reputation of the winemaker and winery, as well as the critical evaluations of the individual vintages, are of central importance. A particularly high score from leading wine critics can dramatically affect the price of a wine. In addition, the other current journals and specialist magazines keep an eye out for wines with particularly good reviews and for potential market trends in order to stay well informed about the wine market.

Complete provenance
Due to past scandals in which very expensive wines were counterfeited and sold, a complete provenance is essential. Before buying the wines, the certificates of authenticity and storage histories of the individual wines are requested and checked. Only wines with a complete provenance meet our strict selection process.

Condition and storage
The condition of the wine and its storage, preferably in the winery's original wooden boxes, play another important role in the decision whether the wine is considered investable or not. Attention is paid to the remaining filling quantity, the condition of the bottle, as well as that of the cork and the label. This is essential to achieve the maximum sales price.
