I tip on wine, I also tip on corkage...but I do follow the rule of tipping on half the cost of the wine when it exceeds $200.

I'm sorry, this rule is still new to me, and I realize I have a related question:
What if the total cost of wine far exceeds $200, but only because multiple bottles were purchased?
I am thinking of project team dinners, where sometimes the wine bill is several hundred dollars. Until now, we have tipped off the total amount, but would this be a case where tipping off half is appropriate? In theory, uncorking four $80 bottles of wine is less work than serving $320 worth of food.
Thanks.
