The label for Château Mouton Rothschild’s 2019 vintage is being revealed this week. Since its release last summer, the wine has seen little trade but its Market Price has been rising.
When released in summer 2020, the wine found an active market but trades have faded away with just one so far this year (in April).
Nonetheless, the 2019’s Market Price has been rising. It currently stands at £5,949 (12×75), a rise of 67.2% since release and 35.2% year-to-date.
Might the label reveal bring a new round of trade activity as the wine’s physical release comes closer?
