Yikes! Not exactly the sommelier’s finest moments in life, I’m sure.
Certainly a bit awkward since a bottle of that wine recently sold for £10400!
Holy Cow !!!!
One damn costly mistake indeed!
It certainly was ! Thanks Shweta

Someone just lost his job!!
Not much doubt about that!
Oops!

Oops indeed. Thanks for the laugh.
My pleasure, cheers

Ouch! He won’t live that one down.
He certainly won’t! Thanks Mimi.
