According to exchange platform Liv-ex, Champagne and Tuscany recently elevated their secondary market trade share up to 14.8 percent and 7.9 percent respectively. The 2017 vintage of Sassicaia was being sold at a record high of £2400 ($3018) per case last week, up 41.2 percent on its release price. This points to one conclusion. If profit is your holy grail, you know which horses to bet on.
