I don't think the wine analogy is that good. Where it breaks down is that it is quite possible to fake these works of art - the experts are fooled on occasion and, of course, we only find out on those occasions when they find out that they've been fooled. How many fakes are hanging in collections and galleries that have gone undetected (so far)?

With wine it is different. If someone found a way of faking an expensive wines by mixing different quantities of fruits, alcohol, colours and flavourings, in such a way that it was undetectable to experts then that would be become an acceptable way of producing wine (assuming it was cheaper than the traditional method).
