Regional trade this week
Bordeaux’s rising trade share was driven by activity for its 2019 and 2010 vintages. The most traded wine from the region was Le Petit Mouton de Mouton Rothschild 2019, which has risen 9.9% in value since release.
Burgundy also made gains, increasing its market share from 24.2% to 28.6%. Since the start of the year, the number of Burgundian wine labels (LWIN7) traded on Liv-ex is already half of the record achieved in 2021.
Chile (2.4%) led the ‘others’ category, and Seña 2017 even found its way into this week’s top traded wines.
Screaming Eagle and Harlan Estate led secondary market activity for the USA, which also increased its share of trade to 5.1%.
