A case of 2010 Chateau Margaux, a Bordeaux first-growth wine estate, sold for 5,325 pounds ($8,260) on the Liv-ex market in London, a record low and down 16 percent from its high for this year as demand weakened.

The transaction on Aug. 28 was 36 percent below its peak of 8,328 pounds a case at which it traded in June 2011 at the height of the bull market for Bordeaux.
