Yeah, and the Roumier Bonnes Mares is $165 and the Musigny $450. If you're one of the 5 people who bought them directly from the "right" source in Europe. But everyone else will pay $600+ for the Bonnes Mares, and the some will pay up to $1,500 for the priviledge of owning a single bottle of Musigny.
These are crazy, indeed. You can buy the '93 Bonnes Mares for $500, and a) every bit as good, and b) it is 12 years closer to maturity.
You know well and good that these aren't the official prices, they're brokered prices. Moose was $350.

There are no official prices for Burgundy anymore. Maybe for Bordeaux as there is much more.
