I have outside knowledge . You ' re incorrect on pricing structure . When the 05 Dujac Clos de la Roche was released in ' 07 ' 08 the wholesale to trade pricing was $ 250 $ 300 . So using the rule of thumb , a retailer would mark up the bottle 2 x $ 500 to $ 600 . A restaurant like Daniel would mark up 3 x $ 750 $ 900 . Over time , this grand Cru bottling from this vintage has proven to be one of the best wines from the vintage and the secondary market has placed a premium on this wine . Thus it ' s trading at $ 1000 . Bravo , Robin . <| sep |> I want to get off Mr 2016 s wild ride <| sep |> Unsure whether you think the story is terribly written or if you mean a good kind of terrible P I don ' t know , I liked my weird little story though !
