I think you got a pretty good deal on the wine considering where you are dining!! I have seen Krug GC priced more than that at humbler restaurants and the $1200 for '85 Petrus sounds like a steal..... I think that vintage would have cost more "retail" considering it is a Petrus and it is an 85.....
