An eye-watering offer, though the Meursault 1ers and Corton-Charlemagne are not completely out of sight if the quality is there – and generally in 2007 I think the quality IS there in the whites. To my mind, the majority of the reds are at least 30% overpriced, except (of course) the Bonnes-Mares which deserves special mention as the most overpriced wine of the year – in February I could buy Christophe Roumier’s 2006 in a Beaune tourist shop for that. I wouldn’t want to be a merchant today with these prices.

Agree? Disagree? Anything you'd like to add?
