A work acquaintance has heard that there’s money to be made investing in wine. You tell her that it’s not that simple, but she won’t relent. What $100 bottle of wine has the best chance of appreciating in the next 10 years?
Second wine of Cos d’Estournel.—Sam Jonnery, Gotham
But it’s difficult to make $$$ in B.C.—Sebastien LeGoff, Cactus Club
