Hi Dick,

I'd put it in the cellar for a few years to ensure it was fully settled,
then fly my very best friends in and enjoy it. 200 years is enough
aging, even for Yquem. Anyway, you can get it for less:

I cannot imagine spending that for a bottle of wine, no matter how much
money I had. The money could house a family for a year or more, for
goodness sakes! Anyway the issue is never likely to become a moral
dilemma...
