Would Sir like to taste the wine?

Stephen is just back from a customer dinner. One of the UK employees was hosting (and picking up the tab) and he made a slight error of judgement. He asked the North America employee (and multi-multi-millionaire) to order the wine....

Poor Lex was a little bemused when the bill arrived. He thought that the restaurant might have miscalculated...but no. On closer inspection (with reading glasses on) he realised that the wine had cost $406. For one bottle!! Stephen said "but it was a 1 litre bottle"... I didn't realise that they sold Chateau Lafite by the litre...does that make it Chateauneufdecrap?
