For some reason I don't think your average whore would appreciate the value of such a treat.
The only thing going into my girl will be my hard cock, my balls and a mouth full of 2013 vintage cum

sometimes I like to do vertical vintage with my good friends for dinner.
e.g. we start same wine from 2000, 1998, 1997 and so on.
I went really well.
Henschke Hill of Grace or St Henry is a good start.
This needs to be "air" few hours before I will drink.
I will not open that with WL.
I properly will share with a girlfriend or partner such as fine dining or romantic trip.
Without good customer services, there will be no business!!

Sometimes you can't balance the amount of money people have to spend or to waste vs whether they can really appreciate the finer items in life, such as some fine drops mentioned here.
My recent trip to Hong Kong and China was quite an eye opener, every restaurant I went, from top class venue (like the one at the Inter-Continental HK - ex Regent) to an average local neighbourhood restaurant, people are drinking very expensive red wine to simply show off that they can afford it. In a mid range Chinese restaurant in Macau, the table next to mind, all from mainland China, ordered a bottle of Chateau Lafite Rothschild, didn't see the vintage on the bottle, but surely it was very expensive, the waiter poured the wine into the decanter and asked the customers to wait a little bit, the guy didn't give a damn, poured the wine to filled more than half of his big wine glass and drink it with his soup of the day.............WTF !!
But this is nothing new to the Hong Kong dining scene, before Red Wine became popular in the then British colony, people used to drink Hennessy XO cognac at dinner banquet, mixing the XO with coca cola or 7 Up, talk about table etiquette.............lol
Just my two cents of observations
Cheers
ps. on our table, we have a bottle of Portugese red wine recommended by the waiter @$198.00 (AYD$25.00) which was quite nice and complimented our menu.

I like the 2003 Marsh Estate Sinclair Shiraz, the 2000 Rothvale Shiraz's and Gartelmann and Rothvale Semillon. Did the Tamar Valley over the Christmas break and Moores Hill has some nice Reislings, Rose's and sticky's. I haven't hit over $100 with an ML either but have with the gf. Velo had some nice wines too.
maybe. I'm down to my last '85.
In the late nineties I was buyng Hill of Graces for only $35, about 7 or 8 of them and always wasting them that very night, at a friends, usually with pepper steak, broccoli and carrots in white sauce.
I think that, cellared, the bottles would be worth over a grand each now!
Don't ever recall hog under $300 I started drinking red in the late 90s. I would prefer chris ringland shiraz, australis, muck duck or the laird over grange or hog anytime.
On the side note my local cellar told me this year 707 release price will be $250. Last time I had bought a twelve pack was the 1998 vintage which cost alittle over $100. I still got 8 bottle left.
ps I opened a bottle of 98 hog from my cellar for this new year eventhough its a fantastic drop but for its current market price around $800 I could buy a bottle of australis and a bottle of muck duck.
Sorry it was in 1994, and I was definitely getting it for $35 - that is why I kept buying it! It hadn't yet acquired its "poor man's Grange" rep yet. It was just on the cusp. It is well out of my pocket's range now. If I was going to be that indulgent it would be Brand Girls long before it was Hill of Grace.
I was taking it to my friend's new place - he had just been kicked out for good by his wife, so that has recalled to me when. It really was magic. The final ritual was to tongue the mouth of the bottle to extract the last molecules of wine out of it. (We didn't have any airs or graces.)
18 years on, those bottles must be sensational.
