Granted, the wines I’ve watched for so long are high end, but, I find it interesting that the “offered” prices for these hasn’t changed much, if at all. If there is a recession, it doesn’t seem to be causing high end players to lower their prices. Wish it weren’t true – maybe I could afford more of this kind of stuff if it wasn’t so darn pricey.

My “watch” list is pretty standard stuff and includes Duckhorn, Caymus, and (closer to my wallet) Hewitt Cabernets. . . . . in any case, if the economy is causing some reduction in prices – I havent seen it amongst these labels – they’re just as pricey as they have been over the previous 5-6 years.
