When people are at a fancy restaurant and order a bottle of wine the waiter brings it out and pours out a sip to taste. What happens if the customer dosen’t like it? Can you actually send back the whole bottle? Does the customer pay for it? What does the restaurant do with the rest of the bottled?
Thanks 🥰

The smell/taste of the wine is not to make sure it’s to your taste preferences. It’s intended to discern whether the wine has gone bad (e.g., if stored improperly).
If that’s the situation, they’ll bring another bottle. The restaurant would eat that cost (Edit: See some comments below, I’m told they don’t eat the cost, they have insurance and ultimately the money would get recouped). They wouldn’t be serving the first bottle anyway, if it’s gone bad. It’d be like cooking and serving a piece of meat that spoiled.
