The most expensive bottle of wine was sold at an auction at Christies, London, in December 1985. The buyer paid £105,000 for a bottle of 1787 Chateau Lafitte claret that was engraved with the initials of Thomas Jefferson. Eleven months after the sale, the cork dried out, slipped into the bottle and spoiled the wine, making it the most expensive bottle of vinegar.

In the mid-'80s, billionaire Malcolm Forbes paid approximately $155,000 at auction for a bottle of wine. The bottle, which was believed to have come from Thomas Jefferson's own collection and dated back to 1787, was then put on display under strong lights and at the wrong angle. These conditions eventually made the cork fall into the bottle, and the wine lost its value and was thrown away.

well they founded a bottle of wine from a tomb of a king in Egypt, and the bottle is about 5000 years ago or so.
So the bottle of wine must be really, but really expensive because their is no one who have that kind of wine in their house store.
