THE WINE CAPITAL 3s STRATEGY™
WINE CApital’S PROVEN METHODOLOGY BEHIND WINE EVALUATION
Our firm’s strategy is to acquire investment-grade wines globally, with an initial focus on France (Bordeaux, Burgundy and Champagne) and Italy (Tuscany).
We apply an analytical, data-driven approach to the sourcing and safeguarding of assets. It utilises weather satellite and historical pricing data to determine the best regions and vintages and to make informed decisions on the direction of the overall market.
With wine, timing is everything. Wine Capital Wine Fund will hold the assets for a period of time between acquisition and sale that is sufficient to permit material capital appreciation, typically through a combination of maturity, scarcity and the addition of value during the holding period.
This constant cycle of evaluation and monitoring is the unique Wine Capital Wine Fund “3S Strategy”, ensuring the fund value is always optimised.
