Liv-ex exclusive: We look at the estates that have decided to leave the st.-emilion classification -
Château Cheval Blanc,
Château Ausone (July 2021) and
Château Angélus (January 2022). How have they fared against the remaining
Premier Grand Cru Classé A,
Château Pavie?
- Following the withdrawal of Cheval Blanc, Ausone and Angélus from the Saint-Émilion classification, Pavie is the only Premier Grand Cru Classé A estate remaining.
- There has been no discernible effect on their secondary market performance since their decision to leave.
- Cheval Blanc has been the top-traded and best-performing estate.
