We've zoomed in to give a glimpse of where the real damage came from - the wine and cognac:
- 19 glasses of Remy Martin Louis XIII cognac for a total of $4,525
- Two bottles of Harlan Estate cabernet for $2,990
- One bottle of Shafer cabernet for $2,650
- One bottle of Screaming Eagle cabernet for $3,495
