I know that one...

...from a friend who was collecting Bordeax cases in about 1982 when I was first learning about wines.

Not a first growth, but considered to be very good, nonetheless.

He used those some years later to fund a lot of his wine purchases.

My wife gave me a bottle of champagne on our first date which was XMas eve, so we have a long history, or maybe I should say I do, of buying a bottle of expensive champagne around the holidays. Her birthday is also New Year's Eve.

In the past few years I've paid $60 to $100 for some highly touted stuff, that I find I don't like any more than the VC at under $40.
