Do World Showcase charge market value for wines?

The title for this thread should read "Do World Showcase stores charge market value for wines?" Sorry about that!

I tried the Mission Hill Riesling at the F&W festival and wanted to buy it, but it was $88 in the Canada store.

My bf just found a 187ml bottle (half the size of the one in Canada) for $16 at our local wine store. It's a 2004 vintage, and I'm not sure what year the bottle in Canada was produced.

I was just wondering if WDW significantly marks up the price for bottles of wine found in the World Showcase. Or, did I score a great deal? I thought that most of the prices in World Showcase store were reasonable, but I am no wine expert!

Thanks for your imput!

Yes they do...everything Mickey sells is marked up...
a bottle of Mead is 14 dollars at our local liquor store (5min outside the gate) Epcot is selling it for 24 bucks i believe....

Wine is WAY marked up at Disney, just like everything else. I have fun buying drinks and walking WS, but I would never buy a bottle there.

We have only bought bottles there when we knew we would have trouble finding them back home. Mark-up is crazy on some of the bottles.
