Champagne needs little introduction, even to those not typically involved with fine wine. It is everywhere – from restaurants and clubs to airport lounges and private cellars. Fit for every occasion, Champagne has developed an investment market in part thanks to its strong brand recognition. More approachable than other fine wines, the Champagne market has become one of the most liquid – an added benefit for investors. In fact, the region dominated the top-traded wines on the secondary market in 2023.
A decade ago, the region made up less than 3% of the fine wine investment market. Today, its trade share comfortably sits between 13% and 15%, making it a close contender to Burgundy (the second- most-popular region after Bordeaux).
Pricing dynamics have also evolved during this time. From a relatively modest price performer, and one of the most affordable entry points into the wine investment market, Champagne has risen to new heights in recent years. As the ultimate fine wine ‘luxury’ asset, Champagne has shown remarkable resilience to economic crisis and relatively low volatility.
