Bordeaux took a 34.8% share of trade this week. By value, the 2009 was Bordeaux’s top-traded vintage, and by volume the 2020. Petrus was the region’s top traded brand, with the 1986, 1995, 2009, 2012, and 2016 changing hands.

After a quieter week last week, Burgundy rebounded to take a 21.2% share of trade. Joseph Drouhin, 4th in this year’s Power 100, was the region’s top traded producer, courtesy of the 2018 vintage of flagship Montrachet Marquis the Laguiche.

Champagne, which has seen its trade dwindle as US buyers have withdrawn over recent months, took a 15.9% share of trade, well up on the June level (10.3%) and also above the 2024 average (11.8%). Demand was driven by European buyers. Taittinger was the region’s top traded producer.

Tuscany had a stronger week, closing with a 9.7% share. Tenuta San Guido was the region’s top traded producer, accounting for 31.6% of all Tuscan trade value.
