Why Invest in This Category? 
Fine wine has long attracted investors, and Grand Cru Burgundy stands out as one of the most resilient segments. Strict regional regulations, tiny yields, and growing demand from collectors and gastronomy buyers have supported steady long-term appreciation. Top sites in Gevrey-Chambertin consistently command attention, with prices driven by terroir quality, scarcity, and rising global interest – making this category a proven store of value.
Why Invest in This Asset? 

When it comes to ultimate exclusivity in the Burgundy segment, there is no way around Chambertin-Clos de Bèze—especially the 2021 vintage. A wine that insiders have long described as a sleeping giant, with significant potential for value appreciation and increasing rarity.

Joseph Drouhin’s presence in this legendary site is defined by a tiny 0.13 ha vineyard, making it super rare and super exclusive. This results in a production of only 500 bottles per year. The 2021 vintage was defined by a return to classical elegance and a perfect harvest window—resulting in remarkable freshness, precise minerality, and subtle depth. This quality is underscored by critical ratings of up to 96 points.

While Grand Crus are inherently limited, this wine represents only a fraction of total production. A large share goes directly into private collections or Michelin-starred restaurants, disappearing from the open market within a very short time.

Over the past five years, the secondary market for prestige Burgundy has gained strong momentum. Rare Clos de Bèze vintages have achieved significant annual value increases, and the 2007 vintage is widely regarded as its stylistic predecessors in terms of balance and longevity.

Conclusion  An ultra-rare Burgundy with measurable investment potential, a compelling story, and an aura reserved for only a very small number of wines.
