​​@@gauravshukla71Here's where the fakery falls into this, central London marketing agencies would charge millions to market a place like this because it is now no longer possible to remain in peoples minds when the changing landscape of London has businesses and restaurants closing and opening every single day therefore rather than have Alexander pay for the full fifteen thousand experience and letting him do it independently risking undesirable feedback they give the entire experience for free on the condition they are allowed to review the footage which means it's turned into a free marketing tool where they reach millions of new wealthy people using social media to stay up to date on restaurants and it costs them nothing compared to the option I just mentioned.

That meal looked incredible, but until I saw the bill, I thought they were charging $15k for the "Sommelier Table Experience." That raised some alarm bells. But once I saw the bill and that the cost for the table was only $2,500 (still a lot), I thought it sounded a lot more reasonable. I didn't realize that $12,500 of the bill (give or take) was based on a selection of incredibly expensive wine.

[@thomasr5121]

Clickbait title.

[@d3c0yn4m3l355]

He got scammed, nothing more. A regular 96 retails at 500 euro, or 2000 for a double magnum and he paid over 7000 euro for it. The place should be ashamed of itself treating wine lovers like that.

[@chankwanting]

I don't think you understand that no restaurant sells wine at retail price. A 2-3x mark up is considered fairly standard and this is right in that ballpark.

[@chrisgoodale5422]

​@d3c0yn4m3l355 also, in the UK, good luck finding a bottle of '96 Krug on its own. Oftentimes you'll have to fork out for an entire case of 6 or 12 (so spending a minimum of almost £3k), which offers a rarity value and a kind-of "finder's fee" alongside its age. As someone else mentioned, restaurant markups of alcohol are going to be really rather different than buying at retail price, because you often find that the food margins are tiny (especially when paying for so many people in the kitchen, high quality ingredients, etc.) in order to keep food prices as low as they can justify so you can get through the door (and then spend the rest of your £££ on alcohol), and usually use the profits from the alcohol to pay the base salary of the staff etc. Unfortunately if we push the margins of alcohol down, the food would have to go up, disincentivising people going to restaurants at all 😅 it's a cruel equation, but fine dining makes little money as it is as so many of their costs (mostly utilities, rent, maintenance, & staff) are so high... The real money is in the big chains and conglomerates, you should see the massive margins that they have and how little they pay their staff for the effoet and hours they put in 😅

[@johnnamkeh1290]

@@d3c0yn4m3l355 You don't understand this guy wants to be sure the wine is as good as advertised. As explained in the start, sure you can find a cheaper bottle at retail but you're never sure of the quality. Here he pays for the direct-to-basement nature of it, plus of course being in a restaurant. The guy probably repeats this every other video, that the most risk-free way to enjoy fine wine is in restaurants. Apparently he's willing to pay for it.

Never heard of a sommelier table before, I do like the idea. When you think about how much some private experiences cost that are mediocre, but just for rich people to say they've done it, 15k almost sounds like a bargain; that's the stage we've gotten to with gimmicks.

[@StCreed]

You can make it as stupidly expensive as you wish, but it's 2500 euro for the food and you can then choose wines according to what your wallet can bear. Yeah, very expensive, but you'll get an experience you won't soon forget. Although I think that going for the lunchmenu and winepairing is a lot more affordable and will very likely come close to the same experience, food-wise.

[@melvinvanuffelen2653]

@@StCreed Plus that table is up to 8 people, so with more people the average cost goes down quickly.

[@johnnamkeh1290]

@@StCreed 2500 euro is to keep it exclusive for people who actually want to spend money on the wine. The 2240 extra charge on the food is the gatekeeper. They won't want you to go sit there and buy only a couple of 100 euro wine bottles. It's not worth it to them.

[@MirrorMonolith]

Only missed opportunity was to have some stunning dessert wines with the dessert courses. They have Egon Muller riesling, so likely to have a tba from that producer, which is one of the world’s best sweet wines. The focus on old Italian wines tells me they should have some old vin santo.

Clos du Mesnil is my preferred champagne since I chose one to celebrate our wedding anniversary. The sommelier was very helpful and understanding. Great people. Naturally it won't work with everything, the dinner itself should be composed to get a great mariage. That's the case of every fine wine. As a French it's a national sport to compose and arrange recipes and wines, to compliment or to oppose. Both are valuable.

[@Bosshog-WealthHealthBetterment]

The quote made me smile at the end, food and drink is about emotions. I rank everything, and above a 10 is when a dish is "emotional", when it connects in some way that goes beyond words or a traditional attempt to rank and rate it. P.S - Surprised you didn't try an armagnac whilst here, they literally have a menu just for the stuff. Would recommend ;).

Unless you are struggling to find things to spend all of your money on or you are a real connoisseur of champagne I wouldn't recommend. I tried it once with a pairing at a restaurant. It's a little funkier than cheap champagne, but it still basically tastes of champagne. The differences for me are subtle. Much rather spend my money on food and more unique new world wine.

[@barath4545]

My experience: I've had Clos de Mesnil 1989, Krug vintage 1996, GCV 171 twice, 170, 166, 167 and something that was probably 163 and then Krug Rose 21. My advice: Do it, but skip the 170/171, they are fullbodied but too acidic atm to my taste to be ready, go for a 166/167 or a vintage a bit older than the newest one. You CAN find them by the glass, the Krug 171 is possible to find at €80 in places that specialize in champagne. Or buy a ticket to a winemakers dinner where Krug is on the menu - This is how I tasted the 1996, the Rose 21 and the 167. Edit: But be prepared to be underwhelmed too, it tastes like good to great champagne but needs a white wine glass and none the Krugs are the best I've ever had, thats Bollinger RD 1990.

Correct. Ex-cellar or ex-chateau is an ideal way to insure perfect provenance of the wine. Also correct that a Jeroboam is 3 liters if we are talking about Champagne. For still wines it is a 4.5 liter bottle otherwise a 3 liter of still wine is referred to as a double magnum. The food looked quite good but other than the Krug and Petrus the wines were a bit underwhelming. No Burgundy selections?! For the price one would expect some Burgundy rouge options.
