A special bottle for a special meal? If the restaurant uses proper stemware and provides proper wine service,$22 is not out of line.
What he said; I'd have said $15 or $20 was typical, but $25 (and thus $22, other than not being a very "round" number) would not be out of line, especially at nicer places.
