I, also, did not pick up on the "case" quantity price and was thinking that we
were now on to DRC's as "mid-priced." In the US good, to near great, Burgs can
be had in the US$50-75 range, and one can also score domestic (to the US) PNs
with good pedigree for that same price. I hate to think about it, but in
Europe, most of our PNs are probably up towards the better Burgs, if available
at all. Even AZ/US does get many of the domestic ones and the pricing is not
too much to handle. While we have other burdens, i.e. inter-state shipping
laws, etc. we do get a very good sampling of wines, especially PNs.
