Wine as an Investment Alternative
October 8th, 2008 by AimWell, it seems the ol’ stock market is looking a little bleak these days. So, I did a little research on investing in other commodities and, to much of my delight, I found that wine is an excellent investment. Finally some good news!
The problem is keeping your hands off it for a few years while it increases in value. Over the last two decades the global demand for fine wine has increased substantially. And records show that wine has outperformed the FTSE 100 and Dow Jones repeatedly. Why? Well it’s fairly simple, supply is low and demand is high, making prices soar and the return on investment very lucrative.
Investors recommend buying newly released, low-production, reserve or sold-out wines. All of which Walla Walla Wine Cellar specializes in. Take a look at K Vintners Phil Lane, Ensemble Cellars Release Number Two, and Long Shadows Feather just to name a few. If you decide not to sell, you will still have some deliciousness to drink. So really it is a win-win situation. Keep the wine professionally stored and remember HANDS-OFF!, which could be the hardest part of the entire equation.
Drink up! Or don’t!
