The NY Times Tastes the Krug Clos d'Ambonnay

We first mentioned Krug's new and highly anticipated single vineyard 1995 Clos d'Ambonnay back in the fall, and although it's not due for release until May Eric Asimov for The New York Times got to take a taste and, according to him, it's "worth every penny." So just how many pennies is he giving the nod to? About 300,000 of them, as the Clos d'Ambonnay is expected to sell for between $3000 and $3500 per bottle.

Will you be springing for a bottle of your own? Money or not, good luck getting your hands on it -- there are only 250 cases in existence.

$11,000 Dom Perignon Champagne

Dom Perignon champagne bottles are going for 1.26 million yen (about $11,005) a bottle in Nagoya's Sakae-ku at the Matsuzakaya Department Store. The store started selling them this past Wednesday and the reason these particular Dom Perignon's are so expensive is that they're part of a limited group of 100 bottles available worldwide that are vintage 1995, which is considered a good year. 20 of the bottles are slotted to be sold in Japan, with the first 5 being sold at Matsuzakaya. Of course the bottles are not only numbered, but are also "elaborately wrapped" to help attract customers, and so far 1 bottle has been sold.
