Three half-cases of Cote Rotie 2009 La Turque Guigal from France’s northern Rhone sold for the highest price in four months on the Liv-ex wine exchange this week as investors focused more outside the core Bordeaux market.

Six bottles of the Rhone vintage fetched the equivalent of 4,182 pounds ($6,460) per 12-bottle case yesterday, while 12 bottles, packed as two half-cases, sold on Aug. 12 for the per-case equivalent of 3,910 pounds, according to data on Liv-ex’s Cellar Watch website. The vintage last traded above 3,900 pounds a case in March.
