JFC WELCOME TO A NEW EDITION OF FINE WINE. YOUR on-lINE MAGAZINE IN A GLASS OF its OWN Online Web Auctions Open the way for New Global Auctions 2012 is going to be a very exciting year, especially for those looking for new opportunities for ROI (return on investment). There is reason to believe that the global investment market for fine wines will be shifting to the different web auctions around the world which are now accessible in real time. The first one out of the box is the Swedish SystemBolaget, the state owned off-license chain, together with Stockholm’s Auktionsverk. Last autumn they carried a three day trial in real time for a designated number of hours per day. The results were so promising that SystemBolaget made the quick decision to discontinue the public ‘under the hammer’ auctions in the future, so as to focus entirely on online Web auctions instead. To begin with they plan to hold four auctions beginning this spring. Added to this there will be discussion on topical Fine Wine auctions with Sotheby’s, Zach’s and Christie’s. There is also current information on the Whiskey auctions, which you’ll find in the web auctions supplement at the back of this edition. Also in this edition is an article by Ursula Hellberg on New Zealand wines and Johan Franco Cereceda on Chilean wineries. Christopher Jarnvall writes on the Swedish alcohol politics in Europe and Stuart George writes on the Fine Wine Market during 2011 and what’s going on in 2012. And, as is our tradition, we have chosen our Fine Wine Producer of the year. A warm welcome to a new and exciting year!

The analysis is derived from a suite of regression models using some 1358 wines drawn from the 2007 period, which, along with red 1School of Management Studies, 2Department of Finance and Tax, and white blends, includes eight cultivars. Using the five-star rating, each wine was rated both University of Cape Town, sighted and blind by respected South African publications. These two ratings were deployed in Republic of South Africa a stripped-down customer-facing hedonic price analysis that confirms (1) the unequal pricing of consecutive increments in star-styled wine quality assessments and (2) that the relationship between value and price can be better estimated by treating successive wine quality increments as dichotomous “dummy” variables. Through the deployment of nonlinear hedonic pricing, For personal use only. fertile areas for bargain hunting can thus be found at the top end of the price continuum as much as at the bottom, thereby assisting retailers and consumers in better identifying wines that offer value for money. Keywords: price, value, wine Introduction Within economics, “hedonics” is defined as the pleasure, utility, or efficacy derived through the consumption of a particular good or service; the hedonic model thereby proposes a market of assorted products with a range of associated price, quality, and characteristic differences and a diverse population of consumers, each with a varying propensity to pay for certain attribute assemblages.

Received: 21 July 2020; Accepted: 8 August 2020; Published: 12 August 2020 Abstract: The Swedish wine industry has exponentially grown in the last decade. However, Swedish wines remain largely unknown internationally. In this study, the typicality and sensory space of a set of twelve wines, including five Swedish Solaris wines, was evaluated blind by Swedish wine experts. The aim of the work was to evaluate whether the Swedish wine experts have a common concept of what a typical Solaris wines should smell and taste like or not and, also, to bring out more information about the sensory space and chemical composition of Solaris wines. The results showed a lack of agreement among the wine experts regarding the typicality of Solaris wines. This, together with the results from the sensory evaluation, could suggest the possibility of different wine styles for Solaris wines.

  • Årsrapport 2014
    Arcus-Gruppen AS | Annual Report 2014 DIRECTORS’ REPORT ArcusGruppen is a leading wine and spirits company in the Nordic region. Its head office is located at Gjelleråsen in Nittedal Municipality. The Group is the global leader in the aquavit market, the market leader in spirits in Norway and Denmark and the market leader and market runner-up in wine in Norway and Sweden, respectively. ArcusGruppen continues to strengthen its position in the Nordic market with revenue growth of 4.7%. External revenue for Wine increased by 8.5% in 2014 and decreased by 1.7% for Spirits. The strong revenue growth for Wine is primarily due to new, attractive agencies and new products. The weakening of SEK and NOK during the year, however, resulted in increased purchasing costs in 2014, which have not been fully offset by changes to the sales price. This has put pressure on profitability. A long-term repositioning of important brands in Spirits contributed to slightly reduced revenue and profitability in the Norwegian market in 2014. The Danish brands are developing as expected following their acquisition in 2013. The production facilities at Gjelleråsen reported positive productivity growth in 2014. FINANCIAL GROWTH Earnings in detail Consolidated operating revenue was MNOK 2,150 in 2014, which represents an increase of MNOK 97 (4.7%) compared to 2013. This increase is mainly attributable to growth in the Wine business area, which reported an increase in external operating revenue of MNOK 99. The Spirits business area reported a decline in its operating revenue of MNOK 14. Profit before tax, financial items, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) was MNOK 311, which is MNOK 21 (6.4%) lower than last year.

  • Testing the Hedonic Relationship Between Wine Quality and Price
    A Hedonic Price Analysis for the New Zealand Wine Industry: Preliminary Results Katie Bicknell Lincoln University, Canterbury, New Zealand e-mail: [email protected] Lana Friesen Lincoln University, Canterbury, New Zealand Ian MacDonald Lincoln University, Canterbury, New Zealand Paper presented at the 2005 NZARES Conference Tahuna Conference Centre – Nelson, New Zealand.

A Hedonic Price Analysis for the New Zealand Wine Industry: Preliminary Results Katie Bicknell1, Lana Friesen and Ian MacDonald Lincoln University, Canterbury, New Zealand Abstract This paper presents preliminary results from a hedonic price analysis of premium wines in New Zealand over the vintages 1994 – 2003. Implicit prices are presented for a sensory quality rating, as well as wine variety and regional reputation. Results show that the price premium associated with Michael Cooper‟s five-star quality rating is highly significant and increasing in magnitude over the study period. Trends in regional and varietal preferences are also explored. Keywords: Hedonic pricing, New Zealand wine, quality 1. Introduction Wine is a differentiated product for which information about its true quality is limited until the time of consumption. As a consequence, buyers must use other indicators of a wine‟s value in order to make purchase decisions. Some potential indicators of a wine‟s quality such as the vintage, the region and the varietal are easily obtained from the wine‟s label prior to purchase.2 Other, more subjective, indicators of quality come in the form of quality rankings or recommendations from wine experts, and the receipt of various wine awards.
