Looks like the 2000 Yquem is out now. When I was at The Wine Club in Santa Clara they had a Magnum of the 2000 for $995. This is a bit odd since the 1999 is only just being released. Has anyone else actually seen a bottle? I know Yquem broke with tradition and put the 2000 on futures but I wouldn't have expected it to be released this early.

have they stopped the 5 year hold before release tradition?

Either they have stopped the 5 year release or that was a forged bottle.

That btl was not real as far as I know

Has anyone else seen this on the shelves? Apparently it is indeed out and very pricey.
