Fine Wine has consistently outperformed all other forms of recognised investment. It has remained the steadiest form of investment, generally unaffected by recession, interest rate changes and stock market fluctuations. Fine Wine offers many advantages over other investments – such as unit trusts, life assurance, investment bonds and equities – as it benefits from being stable, tax free, easily reaslisable, consumable, low risk and portable. Above all else, due to decreasing availability, there is increasing rarity.
Given the growing level of scepticism over other forms of traditional investment, individuals have been seeking new opportunities and advice on how to extend or restructure their investment portfolios to include a well-balanced mixture of traditional, alternative and leisure investments.
Premier Cru Ltd (“Premier Cru” or the “Company”), Europe’s leading Fine Wine investment house, seeks to exploit the Fine Wine investment market as an opportunity for high growth investment returns. Its specific intention is to offer structured investments to ordinary people with little or no knowledge of Fine Wines.
The Company is unique, in that it provides tailor made portfolios with no lock in periods – enabling investors to add or subtract at will (to pay off a wedding, children’s school fees, a mortgage or even create an income to supplement your pension etc). It does not charge up front or exit fees, nor early redemption penalties, and investors’ profits are free from capital gains and income tax. Unlike ISA’s there are no upper limits, and Premier Cru’s minimum investment is the lowest in the market, at £1500 and/or £100 per month.
Removing all the common drawbacks from other investment schemes, Premier Cru offers what is generally considered to be the most tax efficient and fully flexible range of investment plans on the market today.

Stacey-Lea Golding, Director at Premier Cru, stated: “A core benefit to our hands-on investment strategy is the flexibility and tax effectiveness on offer to clients. By no means are we advising individuals to withdraw from their current investments, but to balance their portfolios through broadening their range, enabling risk to be more evenly spread.
