$500,000 for a 6-litre imperial — Napa Valley's most exclusive cult wine in its debut vintage.
A 6-litre imperial bottle of Screaming Eagle's debut 1992 Cabernet Sauvignon sold for $500,000 at the Napa Valley Wine Auction in 2000, making it the most expensive bottle ever sold at that time. Screaming Eagle is one of the world's most sought-after cult wines, producing only around 500 cases per year from a tiny Oakville, Napa Valley estate. The wine received a perfect 100-point score from critic Robert Parker. Membership on the mailing list, the only way to buy it directly, has a waitlist of thousands.
