When the premier tranche of '61s were released en primeur, Lafite
caused a storm, because they had broken the £2 a bottle price!! Sigh.
What a pity I wasn't interested in wine in those days. Mind you, my
weekly wage was around £6 so it's not clear I could have bought much
even if I had been interested

All the best
