So, they got into the hype too.
What you are talking about is not what I would call the “retail” price. The fair retail price range I saw was $68.99-$99.99, with the top end starting to get into a premium margin. The price you will find on WS now is gouging in my book, plain and simple.
It isn’t a price the market will bear. It’s a price that guarantees only a price-insensitive person will pay.
I tend to agree, although this is also true of a number of other wines in the market.
It’s interesting to me to observe all this, as someone who started out exploring wines from the Rhone. For a long time, Cornas was considered by many (most?) collectors

That was the whole jancis spiel as well
Just for the record, the winning bidder was not me.
hmm…case of 2015 Voge (oh, well 11 bottles) that Envoyer just offered, or one mag of Juge?!
I was able to get 1 mag of the 2015. It was $140. Retail release on mags has been between $120 and $140 for a few years.
For the secondary pricing of new release Juge, I don’t understand why the interested buyer isn’t sourcing Verset and Allemand from the 90s.

because you cant send out an Instagram (Or snapchat or whatever cool kids use these days) and get a zillion likes for Verset and Allemand.

sorry necro thread, was looking at old Juge threads after his passing.
Allemand gets more likes than Juge from my own personal experience of posting ;p
