Wine Description: |
Pauillac - Medoc, dry red blend. This is the sister wine of
Lafite. Often a good investment. One of the 1st Growth’s
and very popular world-wide, you can’t go wrong
investment wise, with this type. Harvest can be cut in
half for different years, and this will mean rarer wines
to get hold of. See year 2000.

Wines Year Description: |
This wine is easily one of the best investments for the
short term currently. At the beginning of this year you
could have bought this for around 1500 Pounds when the
market was down, but this wine is now selling for 3000
plus for a full case. Although rated at 96 pts by Robert
Parker it is widely thought that this is a wine that
will really grow and mature over the next few years and
could well be re-scored at 98+. Nevertheless if you
compare this vintage to the 2005 (96pts), then it is
clear there is a lot of investment potential. The 2005
vintage was trading at £4500 within the first 18 months
of its release and currently it trades at over £5000 per
case. Similarly to Lafite Rothschild, Mouton is
experiencing a huge growth in demand from Asia and has
developed quite a status symbol. You only have to look
at the last couple of months of 2009 to see the effect
this has had on Mouton across all vintages, with liv-ex
reporting Mouton as the biggest climber for November.
With rumours of a Chinese artist designing the label for
the 2008 vintage, this could only help to push its price
to a stratospheric level (Mouton 2000, 97pts, £7000 per
case). With all this in mind, Mouton 2008 seems a clear
choice for the wine investor and should be a serious
consideration for all portfolios. |
