Fair Value analysis
Today’s release comes to market at a premium to several vintages already available.
Buyers looking for value will want to consider the 2014 vintage. It was awarded 95 points by Neal Martin (Vinous), when tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. In his tasting note, he said ‘the palate is well balanced with a viscous texture’ and ‘extremely well-judged acidity’. It is currently available for £242 per case, a 22.4% discount to today’s release.
With 94 points from the critic, the 2019 vintage also looks attractive. It is currently available at a Market Price of £242 per 12×75, a 22.4% discount on today’s release.
