Even though that cellar picture is touched up, it looks beautiful.

Pretty cool. It would be cool to see my name on the place holder…

Charlie. Let’s make it happen.

Bern’s.

Me, you, and our lovely wives.

And we can break out the very aristocratic white slacks with the black double-breasted blazers.

And don’t forget to wear your wine-colored, velvet Christian Louboutin slippers.

I wonder if the people at the Chateau would be offended if a guest brought their own wine glasses. Those look pretty bad for smelling the wines. They’re probably antique or otherwise precious somehow, but they look like Libbeys.

Is it just me or are the estimates on the 1905 and 1868 low (perhaps wildly low)?

The stemware is a minor scandale indeed … there are dozens of appropriate glasses available worldwide, absolutely no need to use (ancient) tools like these …

I’m bringing out the white patent leather shoes for this. Maybe a smoking jacket…
