Ken. Are these "list" prices in USD? Or CMV set by auctions? Have you had any of these? Do buyers actually open their bottles and enjoy their contents or just hold for investment?

the table indicates US$. i think that they take the prices from various auctions and across vintages for the average price and then it would be a great vintage which is the highest price.

i think i've had various vintages of the majority but certainly not all. a few obscure burgs and germans there. most people i know drink them but obviously some hold them.

They are good but I didn't think they would be as expensive as that.

But that's their BAs and TBAs. You get JJ Pruem starting around 10 EUR for the basic Gutsriesling or Kabinet. And these are obviously ony the very rare auction wines.

I see, the really sweet stuff. Good thing I haven't developed a taste for the really sweet whites.
