I have over the last 6 months bought some wine, These are in bonded wharehouse.
I bought Hosanna 2008 , Bahans haut brion 2006 and Clinet 2008
It seems to be outperforming the banks
Anybody been doing this? any thoughts?

I recently heard that Majestic Wines announced increased profits, especially on wines over twenty quid, exactly for this reason... I guess you have to know your wines, like others know their stocks and shares.

Personally speaking, they would have to bond it with Superglue... otherwise I would just drink my investment.

I'd be a little too worried about counterfeiting to put my life savings into wine. All it takes is a laser printer and a case of 2 Buck Chuck and you can make whatever you want. And if nobody ever drinks the stuff, you'll never get caught.

Hi Tony,
Do you also have an interest in drinking the stuff?
I have some cases which could be classed as investments but have never actually
sold any yet. I have bought quite a lot in bond but mostly for drinking.
It is nice to know that a case or two could be sold, to meet the bills in old age!

I’m normally not a praying man, but if you’re up there, please save me, Superman.
