- Finding value in Château Figeac and the release of Promontory 2017 were among this week’s published posts.
Regional trade this week
Not for the first time this year, Burgundy’s market share was once again greater than Bordeaux. Both regions increased their share of trade from last week, driven by demand for leading names such as Domaine Leroy in Burgundy and top vintages such as 2019 and 2009 for Bordeaux.
By contrast, Champagne, the US and the Italian regions all saw a decline from the previous week. Nonetheless, there was still active demand for Louis Roederer Cristal 2014, Dom Pérignon 2012 and Tignanello 2019.
This week’s top traded
The top-traded wines this week were all Bordeaux and Burgundy – hence those regions’ higher share of trade overall.
The wines of both Domaine and Maison Leroy led the way for Burgundy. The wines from the Leroy stable have been seeing increased demand since October 2021, with prices rising accordingly.
Among the Bordeaux, Château Figeac 2009 hit a new high with a last trade price of £2,362 per 12×75. The estate has been in buyers’ sights both pre- and post its promotion in the Saint-Emilion classification.
