That's what I was thinking. If the bogus wine tasted like the 4-figure wine to the duped, they should be drinking cheaper wine.

There are several versions of this article - some go into more detail on the paper he used to forge the labels, which I thought was the most interesting part - obviously people were more interested in what was IN the bottle, so could miss label age issues.
