The Gold Standard in Wine Custody
Secure Wine Storage Through LCB
At Vangardist, we believe ownership should come with clarity, control, and confidence.
Our wine portfolios are held through LCB, with each client’s wines allocated to their own dedicated sub-account. This provides a structured approach to portfolio custody and helps maintain clear records of the stock associated with each client.
Dedicated Client Sub-Account
Your wine portfolio is held within your own dedicated sub-account at LCB.
- Clear allocation of your wine stock
- Dedicated portfolio records
- Transparent custody arrangements
- Professional storage through LCB
- Ongoing portfolio management and support
Wine Held Under Bond
Eligible wines may be held under applicable bonded arrangements, subject to the relevant rules and facility terms. Bonded storage can provide benefits relating to the treatment of applicable duty and VAT while qualifying goods remain under bond.
Your Portfolio, Professionally Managed
Vangardist combines specialist wine sourcing with a structured approach to custody and portfolio management. We work with clients to help them understand their holdings, follow their ownership journey, and explore secondary-market opportunities when they are ready.
Rare Whisky
Vangardist is exploring opportunities in the rare whisky market, with a focus on selected investment-grade assets and specialist sourcing. Whisky availability, sourcing arrangements, and custody options are discussed on a case-by-case basis. Whisky bottles are held in lcb within sub accounts for clients - same as wine. And the whiskey casks are held in bonded disterlies. Both bonded facilities are HMRC run.
