As reported on YWN, a bottle of wine remaining from Maran HaGaon HaRav Aaron Yehuda Leib Shteinman ZT”L was purchased at auction by Daniel Samimi, a Yeshiva Bochur from Great Neck, New York.
It is described to be wine that Maran prepared himself, and distributed on Purim 5750.
Daniel, who learns in Yeshiva Yeshivat Tiferet Torah of Monsey, placed the winning bid of $600 for the unique item.

better to give tzeddakah than to turn wine into a relic ke’minhag achairim.
Hopefully, the proceeds went to Tzedakah. That’s the only way to justify this Aberration.
Again with the judging… how do you know he didn?t give tzedaka also….?
