Stuff is just not widely imported into the US. Yes, I could've ordered a half case of extremely overpriced wine from a specialty importer, but there wasn't much readily available in NYC area (which almost certainly has best selection of wine in US).

Out of interest, I looked into an auction being advertised by one of big wine auctioneers in the US. Despite being advertised as a "Swiss Auction", there is actually no Swiss wine being auctioned here.
