Help: Should I allocate 30% of my wine‑focused portfolio to VWRL vs SSAC for global equity exposure?

I’m building a modest portfolio that mirrors my wine tasting hobby – about 30% in wine assets (e.g., wine futures, fine‑wine ETFs) and the rest in equities. I’m torn between two UCITS ETFs:

  • Vanguard FTSE All‑World UCITS (VWRL) – low TER, broad exposure, EUR‑hedged?
  • iShares MSCI ACWI (SSAC) – slightly higher TER, includes emerging markets, USD‑hedged?

My questions:

  1. Which one pairs better with a wine‑centric allocation? I worry about currency mismatch with European wine purchases.
  2. How do the dividend yields (VWRL ~2.3% vs SSAC ~1.9%) impact a low‑turnover strategy?
  3. Any tax quirks in the UK for UCITS that hold a large proportion of wine‑related holdings?
  4. Should I consider a small allocation to a sector‑specific fund (e.g., luxury goods) to complement the wine theme?

Any concrete experiences, broker tips, or back‑test results would be gold. Thanks.
