First one of our dedicated portfolio managers will talk you through exactly how the wine investment market works giving you a complete insight into exactly how you can make money from investing in wine, answering any questions you may have along the way.
We establish an initial idea of investment capital that suits your individual budget and needs, discussing aims / goals for the investment, time frames and expected levels of return.
We use many key criteria in order to select the wines with the highest potential to make the most profit possible including:
we source wines only from the very best Chateau's in Bordeaux. Chateau's that have shown a solid track record and are renowned for producing the world's finest and most expensive wine.
We ensure only the best vintages are selected for our clients. Performance History: using market data, analytics and our specialist knowledge we carefully select wines with a strong performance history.
All of our wines have a minimum point score of 92. "Anything bearing a Robert Parker score of 90 points or more is sure to be a sound investment" Evening Standard
It is important to know when a wine is in its prime to make the most of the wines optimum drinking window. Once a wine hits its optimum drinking window, consumers start buying up remaining wine reserves pushing up prices as the wine becomes more and more scarce.
Most Chateaux produce no more than 20,000 cases in any given year and some only a few hundred so by choosing a wine that is already fairly scarce to begin with provided the quality is good and therefore has been given a high point score
Appelation d'origine Controlee is a Law in Bordeaux that limits the amount of wine a vineyard can produce. This law was put in place in 1936 to ensure the quality of the wine produced remains high
Once a wine purchase has been agreed upon, all the relevant paperwork proving full ownership of the wine will be sent to you and an account that can be accessed online is created. Your wines will be added to your online account allowing you to view your wine assets with full access to our online portal anytime day or night.
We will transfer your wine once your own storage account is opened with EHD London No1 Bond Ltd or storage facility of your choice. Once the wine has been transferred not only do you have the relevant paperwork proving full ownership, you also have physical possession of the wine. See our storage page for full details.
Depending on your requirements, your account manager will be in contact monthly or quarterly providing a valuation of your wine. We will provide you with a written annual statement at the end of the first quarter of each year. If you require an "on-the-spot" valuation please do not hesitate to give us a call.
When you want to make adjustments to your portfolio or release any gains, one of our specialised wine brokers will use their expertise to ensure you achieve the optimum value on your investment. As the price we achieve for our clients directly affects the amount of commission we earn every possible effort is made to ensure we sell the wine for the very maximum amount possible.
