Thanks for bringing the subject of corkage fee. While some restaurants in Europe are no longer charging, especially when established in wine country, I am curious to see how this property can justify such a high price. Seems higher than a entry price bottle of wine. Last time I visited the GH San Francisco, there was no professional sommelier, the wine glasses were very standard and the wine came at the wrong temperature. Not awarding points for this service is another sign that some procedures seem to be applied blindly by some properties. It just does not make sense.
