Paris, France

"The sommelier indicates two white Burgundies in the neighborhood of three or four hundred francs, out of a list that ranges in cost from less than thirty dollars a bottle, to a 1989 Le Montrachet for some $370. The most expensive wine of any kind is a 1937 Pommerol from Château Nenin for fifty-eight hundred francs, or nearly a thousand dollars a bottle."

- A Meal Observed, p 64

I guess the bottles in this rack are not for sale: a 1911 Haut Brion, the tag says. And how would you set a price for, or dare serve, an 1837 Lafite Rothschild? "We'd like two bottles of the Château Margaux 1918, please. Will you take a personal check?"
