Yup. BC has a liquor monopoly that charges more for wines than just
about anywhere else in Canada.
Here are some examples - remember that the currencies are close to par
right now. BC price first, US domestic price second.

2003 Shafer Hillside select $303 $180

2004 Mondavie Reserve $180 $90

2002 Heitz Marthas $170 $110

2004 Beringer Private Reserve $160 $80
