Bringing Wine to a Restaurant

Recommended Posts

Heading to Komi tonight and I wanted to bring a bottle from my Napa wine club.

What is the etiquette? Is it an insult to the sommelier to bring outside wine? Should I tip on what I would have spent on a bottle?

Have you called to see if Komi allows corkage? That's the first step. Second (IMO) would be to determine if the wine you would like to bring is on their list. If so, I personally would not bring my bottle.

They do allow corkage, it was $25 per bottle. They were super gracious about us bringing wine. I am sure it is not their preference, but the service was so good they didn't skip a beat.

Had some amazing champagne there to start the meal, i need to track down the name of the bottle.
