My friend was invited to a really fancy dining by her business partner, she tried a glass of wine that costs $ 6,000 a bottle. Can anybody name any red wine in that price range? Could be imported because she forgot the name and we would like to know.

It was probably an older Petrus, which comes from the pomerol region of bordeaux France

To whom are you trying to impress? The clear sparkling white wine is the more expensive of the wines. Some colored wines are used as an ingredient for the use in cooking. Colored wines don't go well with all meals. The best year of port is 1968/69. There are various types of the grape aged snifter (small portion of liquor). I'm not a wine connoisseur/expert...as you may suspect...

It could be Screaming Eagle. It is in fact just as likely to be a boutique American wine which cost extraordinary amounts of money not just because they are good but because they are produced in tiny quantities
Also if she was eating in a restaurant it would depend on their mark-ups. even the very best French wines rarely cost that retail.

It's probably a Bordeaux or Burgundy red wine from France.

I have heard of a wine that costs much, much more than that. I don't know the name, but my guess is that it came from Italy or France. I do know of Johnny Walker Red, Black, Blue, Gold & Silver (so I'm told)
Sorry I couldn't help you.

On the subject of sports, 26 year old French woman Amélie Mauresmo clearly has poise on the court winning her first Grand Slam singles title at the Australian Open yesterday.
And clearly she has good taste off the court:
"I have a special bottle of wine I kept for my first Grand Slam title," Mauresmo said of her Château d'Yquem 1937. "It's at home waiting for me very quietly in the dark at the right temperature." [NYT]
And at $3800 a bottle (find this wine) for this nectar-like dessert wine, she must be thinking how sweet it is! (Thanks, Skip!)

I believe there are some fairly expensive wines from Tuscany, chianti classico and super tuscan. not sure of any expensive brand names off the top of my head.
