The records don't relate how much these delightfully described "high Flavour'd clarets" fetched but as the whole sale realized a grand total £175, it is a sure bet that if Christie had known that two hundred years later, in 1985, his now famous auction house would sell one bottle of wine for £105,000, or $160,000, he might have held back a bottle or two to enrich his future heirs.</p> <p>This bottle was a Bordeaux, a 1787 Chateau Lafite, and, according to The Guinness Book of World Records, 18 years later it still is the world's most expensive bottle of wine......<br /> (source:http://www.forbes.com/2003/11/19/cx_np_1119feat.html) </p> http://www.winelist.com/forum/topic.php?id=15#post-22 Wed, 20 Aug 2008 08:24:24 +0000 winelover 22@http://www.winelist.com/forum/ <p>Hmmmm, that might be worth visiting. </p> http://www.winelist.com/forum/topic.php?id=15#post-21 Tue, 19 Aug 2008 08:27:52 +0000 fi-wine 21@http://www.winelist.com/forum/ <p>Vist <a href="http://hk.myblog.yahoo.com/fi-wine" rel="nofollow">http://hk.myblog.yahoo.com/fi-wine</a></p> <p>for quality wines from Margaret River, Western Australia &#38; Greece</p> <p>fi-wine </p> http://www.winelist.com/forum/topic.php?id=4#post-20 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 23:58:52 +0000 Sutter Home Fre 20@http://www.winelist.com/forum/ <p>There are several places in France where you can experience some of the country's best wines. </p> <p> The Champagne wine region, around 100km from Paris, is best known for its production of the sparkling wine - or champagne<br /> The Loire Valley, famous for its white wines </p> <p>Bordeaux in South West France, known for really expensive wines. </p> <p>Burgundy region in France is famous throughout the world for its Chardonnay whites and Pinot Noir reds </p> <p>The Rhone Valley, famous for extremely dense full bodied red wines</p> <p>The Languedoc region, one of the biggest wine producing regions, but in the past it has had a reputation of low quality. </p> <p>Roussillon the most diverse and exciting wine region in France, the styles vary immensely from floral whites through to rosés, and full bodied spicy reds through to the famous dessert wines like the Muscat. </p> http://www.winelist.com/forum/topic.php?id=4#post-19 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 05:21:36 +0000 denz 19@http://www.winelist.com/forum/ <p>Why not first try the capital of France, Paris? </p> http://www.winelist.com/forum/topic.php?id=14#post-18 Thu, 31 Jul 2008 10:42:04 +0000 WINOna 18@http://www.winelist.com/forum/ <p>Are there countries in Asia that might offer quite an interesting adventure for a wine loving traveler? </p> http://www.winelist.com/forum/topic.php?id=10#post-17 Wed, 30 Jul 2008 22:44:51 +0000 Sutter Home Fre 17@http://www.winelist.com/forum/ <p>Yes there are non-alcoholic wines.
