    I invest in fine wines regularly - however the return is the joy of partaking in a libation periodically.

    I always thought that wine was like beer. You don't buy it, you only rent it.

    I prefer to buy it and just drink it :)

    You say you are in profit. However, is that a real profit that would see if you cashed in today or a hypothetical valuation if you got the price they think the wine is worth?

    Three months is far too early to say whether it's working or not.
