For those that love the idea of tasting and collecting
exotic wine while visiting beautiful locations for their next holiday, we have
just the perfect places for you to visit.
Hawke's Bay in New Zealand
The country besides the land Down Under has gorgeous scenery
seemingly everywhere, but Hawke's Bay is
the place to be if you would like to taste some of the country’s finest wine
while enjoying the stunning backdrop of the mountains and fir trees. The
valleys at Hawke's Bay are host to over a hundred vineyards and nearly as many
wineries as well, producing Merlot, Syrah, and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Douro Valley in Portugal
If you are even remotely interested in wine investment, you
need to visit the Douro Valley in Portugal. When a place has become a UNESCO World Heritage Site
primarily because of its history of wine estates, you know you have to collect
a few bottles of Vino Verde and maybe even some of the local wines made from alfrocheiro grapes.
The shimmering blue waters of the Douro river, the deep
blue, open sky, and the seemingly unending green valleys with vineyards; it’s a
calming sight to behold for more reasons than one, especially when you are
sipping on some of the world’s finest wine!
Côte de Nuits in France
There is no other place more iconic than Côte de Nuits when
it comes to costly, fine wine. It’s almost hard to believe that this tiny, but
absolutely gorgeous 30km stretch of villages, wineries, and vineyards can
produce enough wine to generate such astounding amounts of money in the wine
business. If you are a wine connoisseur, you know that there is no better place
to collect your premium bottles than Côte de Nuits.
Which Wines Should You Collect?
There are three factors to be considered primarily while
buying exotic wine, as stated below.
The Region - La Romanee, Côte de Nuits, Côte de
Beaune, and Mosel are the locations that produce some of the costliest wines in
the world, but there are other places in Africa, Australia, and New Zealand as
well, that produce fine wine of premium quality nowadays.
The Grapes – Any wine made from Pinot Noir, Merlot, Sauvignon
Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Chardonnay grapes are going to be of the highest
quality.
The Age – The older a wine is, the costlier it will
be, but only when stored properly in a climate-controlled wine cellar. The same
applies after you buy the wine, so look into wine investment from Octavian if
you want to begin building a collection of fine wines. Over 10,000 wine
enthusiasts, sellers, and merchants across the world have their wine bottles
stored at Octavian. If wine investment is on your mind, this is the place where
your collection will appreciate in value.
If all this talk of wine and striking vistas has you
excited, it’s time to get started because any of these locations we just
discussed look even better in person.
