Deal Overview: Why you don’t need to wait until Wednesday

As mentioned above, this syndicate is now 80% filled. Due to the structural imbalance between growing global demand and the finite number of bottles produced each year, these allocations are highly sought after.

Key Deal Information:

  • Minimum Investment: Ā£5,000

  • Historic Performance (net of fees): 11.7% annualised return demonstrated across over 36,000 backtests on 5-year hold periods since 2009.

  • Target Close Date: 8th March 2026

  • Tax Treatment: In many circumstances, fine wine is exempt from UK Capital Gains Tax. A letter of recommendation will be provided by a third-party UK tax specialist.

  • Target Wines: Exclusively wines produced by Domaine de la RomanĆ©e-Conti.

  • Fees: A one-time administration fee of 12.5% (covering storage, insurance, and brokerage for the whole anticipated 5-year period).

  • Structure: UK bare trust nominee, enabling CGT exemption to pass through to syndicate members.

  • Anticipated Holding Period: 5 Years

  • Portfolio Construction: Exclusively wines from Domaine de la RomanĆ©e-Conti. Vintage selection and wine mix are informed by historic performance data, market liquidity, and oversight from the WineFi Investment Committee.

  • Governance: Syndicates operate under a self-governance model. Members have full day-to-day control and vote on all decisions regarding acquisitions, disposals, and management of the portfolio.

  • Exit Strategy: Assets are sold progressively over the anticipated holding period, with proceeds distributed pro rata to syndicate members.

Once the collection is fully subscribed, the window for this specific opportunity will close. We strongly recommend reviewing the documentation and confirming your interest today to secure your place in the pinnacle of the asset class.

How a Syndicate Works

This structure allows investors to co-own curated collections of fine wine from leading producers - making it possible to access wines that would otherwise require much larger outlays if purchased outright.

Alongside our data-driven research and insights from experienced industry partners, this structure is a major USP for WineFi compared to traditional wine investment companies.

This model enables investors to enjoy shared access to rare producers at a fraction of the cost of owning the entire collection.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Research & Opportunity

    WineFi identifies a specific investment opportunity and members can view and

  2. Commitment

    Once the syndicate is closed, members’ commitments are applied to acquire wines from the named producers in scope. Each member’s % entitlement is recorded and held in their name via the Nominee.

  3. Holding Period

    The collection is typically held for around five years. During this time, WineFi handles administration (storage, insurance, reporting) while exit opportunities are proposed to the syndicate for decision.

  4. Exit & Proceeds

    When a sale is approved, the wines are sold and proceeds are distributed directly to members in proportion to their ownership.
