my suggestion would be partly:

* supply/demand, i.e. how many people are willing to part with $6,000.- for one bottle of wine, and how many people are willing to part with more money.
the higher the quantity of $ the more (i assume) people think about making the purchase.

* or you could also think you are getting a break for making a larger purchase.

same as with price per acre of land, in general, the larger the property, the less per acre one pays.

not an expert, but i do not believe there is a specific reason that relates to wine causing this...

if anything... thinking about a specific reason related to wine, one would assume it would have the opposite effect, meaning the larger the bottle,
the higher the price, because in larger bottles, the wine keeps better i.e. will age better. (however... you carry a higher risk if something goes wrong..
i.e. a larger amount of wine would spoil)

my opinion is the supply/demand considerations above that determines the price.
