Thirty bottles of 2012 Chateau Lafite-Rothschild sold for 3,620 pounds ($5,790) a case on the Liv-ex market last week, holding steady at the level established last month amid selling pressure on other top Bordeaux vintages.
While the vintage changed hands at 3,700 pounds as recently as Sept. 13, the two deals on Sept. 16 and Sept. 20 affirmed the level at which it sold in mid-May, a month after its release to the market, according to data on Liv-ex’s Cellar Watch website.
