The advantages of investing in wine.

Wine is a tangible asset as it is a physical product rather than just a certificate.

Fine wines are produced in a finite quantity which then diminishes over time as wine is consumed, which leads to reduced availability and price rises.

Investing in fine wine is exempt from capital gains tax, however certain rules apply and it is prudent to speak to an Independent Financial advisor.

Potential returns can be between 8 to 12% per annum if the correct wines are purchased at the right time.

These figures are only an estimate as some wines do not perform this well while others outperform these figures.
