There was a recent article in WS by the european expert (?), where he was invited to a dinner in Hong Kong (?). The list of wines they shared would cost in the tens of thousands. ONE DINNER! And they do it on a regular basis.

I'm a dyed-in-the-wool capitalist but the idea of paying these prices for something that you can only enjoy once and then only for an hour or so does border on the disgusting. Of course, if they want to invite me over for the tasting, then that's different.There was a recent article in WS by the european expert (?), where he was invited to a dinner in Hong Kong (?).
