September’s top movers were led by Smith Haut Lafitte 2009 (WA 100) which gained 14.3% and traded at an all-time high of £1,779 per 12×75 at the end of the month. Haut Bailly 2009 (WA 100) was also up 13.2% on August. Both wines have relatively accessible price tags compared to other 100-point wines.
Three of the bottom five are from Bordeaux’s Right Bank. These have made strong gains over the past year and pulled back a little in September.
