I had the same thoughts. There's a lot of what I call supermarket wines on the list and the markup is, as Dale says, aggressive. In my experience, shallow though it may be, the more expensive a wine is, the less the restaurant markup. (A $25 wine at a wine shop may sell at for $50 at a restaurant but a $100 wine generally does not sell for $200 at a restaurant.) Copeland’s seems to have thrown this idea out the window. I should add that I've eaten at a Copeland’s in Rockville, MD several years ago and enjoyed the food and atmosphere.
