May 25, 2011

Chateaux Beychevelle, Duhart Milon and Pontet Canet have been promoted to Second Growth, according to Liv-ex’s new 1855 classification. Every two years Liv-ex, the online trading platform, recalculates the 1855 classification using the original criteria: the price of the wines. By this reckoning, Lafite, with an average price of £11,043 per case, consolidates its position at the top of the first growths. It is followed by Latour, Margaux, Mouton, Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut Brion.
