Weekly Top 3 List - Most Expensive Wines

In my "Weekly Top 3 List", I hope to provide a list of some of the finer things in life. I truly hope that one day, all us traders will one day make it and when we do make it, the costs of some of these items can no longer be an issue. My "Weekly Top 3 List" serves only as a motivator and is mainly just for fun.

This week I take a look at three of the most expensive wines that you could (possibly) find at your local liquor store according to AskMen.com's "Top 10: Most Expensive Wines".
