Following the death of renown wine collector, Lloyd Flatt, Sotheby’s will present a collection of rare and fine wines from Flatt’s private cellar.

Known for his exclusive and extraordinarily hosted parties, Flatt was labeled, in an obituary, “…as one of the country’s premier wine collectors…”, by the Washington Post in February 2008.

The collection is estimated to reach a total of $600,000.

If you are thinking about popping the question this Valentine’s Day, then the famous Algonquin hotel in Manahattan is the place to do it.

In an unprecedented partnership with Grey Goose vodka, the landmark establishment has added a $10,000 martini to their already impressive drink list. What is even more impressive about this cocktail is it comes complete with a stunning diamond engagement ring inside.

Served at the Blue Bar by a white gloved waiter, this one-of-a-kind libation is presented in a crystal martini glass on a silver platter. Requests for the drink need to be placed at least 72 hours in advance, so proper preparation of the ring and stone can be achieved.

Drink it in fellas!
