Fair Value analysis
Using Liv-ex’s ‘Fair Value’ methodology, Château du Tertre prices are 62% correlated to Neal Martin scores.
Neal Martin is yet to score the wine but even if he scored it 91 points (the highest score received by any of the past ten vintages), it would still fall significantly above the ‘Fair Value’ line, as shown in the chart below.
Even buyers confident in the quality of this year’s vintage will want to consider the 2016 and 2021 vintages as alternatives. Both are available at discounts of 8.2% and 12.0% respectively.
The lower-scoring 2014, 2017 and 2020 vintages also look attractive.
