At the rehearsal dinner for my wedding, my mother splurged and bought 20 bottles of this magnificent vintage. I expected to have several bottles left after the dinner for my personal stash. It was funny, though. The St. Henry's Monsignor and Deacon who conducted our service and attended the rehearsal dinner refused to leave the restaurant until every last drop was gone. Can't say that I blame him, though.

I had two bottles of 62' it was amazing.
My favorite bottle around $100 would be Joseph Phelps Insignia. I think it's more since I got my last bottles.
That being said I am a big fan of finding geat values which I find all the time at Grocery Outlet since they bought out wineauction.com I am not a big fan of paying retail or merlot but for $15 Raymond Reverve merlot is pretty awesome. I get it at Safeway. there are great values out there right now folks, look for them. Great value in wines from South Africa, Australia and Spain.
