Non-Bordeaux brands up the volume

By November 18, 2011Burgundy, Champagne, Italy, Regions, Rhone

As noted yesterday on the blog, demand has broadened recently to encompass a more eclectic ensemble of wines from both inside and outside Bordeaux. Over the last few days, the exchange has seen a crescendo of trade in Burgundy, Italy, Sauternes, Champagne and the Rhone. The Super Tuscans in particular have piqued buyers' interest, led by (well priced and abundant) Sassicaia 2008.  

Below is a selection of non-Bordeaux brands that have seen relatively strong trade this week. The brands have been ranked according to their share of trade on Liv-ex (in value terms).
