2020 has been a transformational year for the fine wine and rare whisky investment markets. Soaring prices on the secondary market for the finest bottles and cases from the best chateaus and distilleries in the world has catapulted these increasingly mainstream luxury assets to the top of the Knight Frank Luxury Investment Index, overtaking Rolex and Patek Phillippe to become collectively, Asset No.1.
To give you some perspective, the most collectible timepieces have increased in value by an average of 73% in the past decade. However, when compared to rare whisky and fine wine, the numbers pale in comparison. Whiskies from the finest distilleries in the world have increased in value by a colossal 580% since 2008 and have risen over 40% in the previous 12 months alone. Wine has turned out to be the perfect partner for whisky collectors increasing by a mammoth 147% in value for the same period.
