Slate has an article today on one man's pursuit of a rare $700 wine. This is a good read for those of you who ask questions like, "is that $100 wine really that much better than this $10 wine?" This might give you some insight on why someone would be willing to spend so much money on a single bottle of wine.
The most expensive bottle I have ever bought has been the various vintages of Penfold's Grange at about $225.
What is the most expensive bottle you have ever bought?
