I'm rather envious of the customers of steak-joint Hawksmoor who (by mistake) got a bottle of 2001 Le Pin instead of the wine they ordered. On their menu this uber rare Pomerol (Bordeaux, France) was a £4,500 bottle, even retail it would be around £3,000 to buy as 2001 was a stunning vintage for Pomerol. I wonder if they noticed? I can just imagine their TripAdvisor comment, "house wine quite nice" or even worse "house wine quite nice, once we added ice and lemonade" .. ah, lady-luck is a delightful mistress sometimes.
