This message is for winoweenie, bucko and mrdutton - I don't post much to this site much but I read it when I can - I really appreciate your views on wines and your candid remarks - but I gotta say that tonight I have read at least 2 threads where you mock ppl for the prices they are asking for the wines they are selling - you guys know your stuff and laugh at the prices theses wines are getting since you know the values - but they are getting these prices - I am a retailer in NY and have only recently started selling online and I am amazed at the prices ppl will pay for stuff just because it got a good rating from Wine "Speculator" or from Parker the price per bottle for this Donjon (+/- $59.00) is not beyond the relm of possibility - and he only has to find one person to buy it - I could have sold 50 cases of this at any price I wanted (within reason) - Our wines are listed with wine-searcher.com and we got no less than 20 calls a day until we removed the donjon from our list. I am not saying that there aren't wines out there that are as good if not better for less money, i just think that if this guy can get $700 for a case - more power to him - if you guys arent interested don't knock him too hard - he may take it the wrong way. If he waits for a year he might even be able to ask for more money!!
