Wine Investment

Our website has been developed to provide investors with all possible background and current information, and is therefore very detailed and comprehensive in content. In brief, the predominant advantages of investment in top Clarets are as follows:-

• An officially recorded tax-free increase of 1055% for a recent 22 year period. This is equivalent to an annual average growth of 11.75% compounded (tax-free), which out-performs a great many alternative types of investment.
• Experts predict that due to a strictly limited supply on one side, and increased international demand on the other, there is no foreseeable reason why this growth should not continue and develop further.
• Investment in Claret is not liable to Income Tax or Capital Gains Tax and, regarding Inheritance Tax, its value is based on the original cost price and not on an appreciating value.
• Information on our carefully selected and recommended choice of wines is given in detail on our "Vintages" pages.
• In addition to being one of the most profitable and tax-efficient investments available, investment in fine Claret tends to be unaffected by unpredictable events or fluctuating world economies that can influence our own Stock Market.
