Events That Moved The Wine Market

Tequila has evolved from a party drink into one of the world’s fastest-growing premium spirits categories.

Italy has emerged as one of the most compelling regions in fine wine. In this episode, Callum Woodcock of WineFi examines the forces behind that rise; from improving critical recognition and expanding international demand to the persistent price gap between leading Italian wines and comparable bottles from Burgundy, Bordeaux and Napa Valley.

For many years, Bordeaux was considered the only investment-grade wine region. It was in this environment Miles Davis entered the wine trade -- setting up one of the first (and only) FCA-authorised fine wine investment funds.
