A case of 2009 Chateau Pichon Longueville Comtesse de Lalande, a second-growth Pauillac wine estate, sold for a 15-month high of 1,195 pounds ($1,920) on Liv-ex amid demand for growers beyond Bordeaux’s top five.
The wine, from the Medoc peninsula northwest of the city, sold for 14 percent more than the 1,050 pounds at which it traded at the end of 2012. That price was a record low reached after a yearlong price slide, according to data on Liv-ex’s Cellar Watch website.
