CRISTIANO Ronaldo spent £27,000 on two bottles of wine during a 15-minute bar visit, stunned onlookers revealed.
He popped into posh Scott’s in Mayfair and blew the cash on the plonk with his girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez and two male pals.
The soccer ace kicked off with an £18,000 bottle of Richebourg Grand Cru – the world’s most expensive wine.
The vintage, from France’s Burgundy region, is so rare it is not on the menu or offered to regular well-heeled guests.
Next up was a 1982 Pomerol Petrus, which set the Juventus ace back a cool £9,000.
The star was so nonplussed about splashing out such mammoth sums he failed to finish the second bottle. A source said: “Ronaldo was in a great mood and wanted to celebrate.
“It was the first birthday of his daughter Alana Martina. Ronaldo and Georgina marked the occasion in style.
“His group were in and out of Scott’s in little over 15 minutes. They hadn’t booked and just rocked up and sat at the bar.
“They had about a glass and a half of wine each before rushing off to watch some tennis. They didn’t even finish the second bottle.
“But the bill was £27,000. It was just small change to Ronaldo – he didn’t blink an eye. It was the talk of the restaurant all night.”
Ronaldo and his gang headed from Scott’s about 5pm on Monday to the O2 Arena to watch Novak Djokovic beat John Isner at the ATP tennis finals.
The Portugal captain was pictured larking about court-side with his eldest son, Cristiano Jr.
Afterwards the group headed to Novikov restaurant in Mayfair to eat – and splash more cash.
They have been staying at the luxurious Bulgari Hotel in Knightsbridge, where rooms go for £9,000-a-night.
Ronaldo is letting his hair down during the international break.
He has not been called up to the Portugal squad for their upcoming Nations League fixtures against Italy and Poland as he fights an allegation of rape.
And he is indulging in some of the finest food and wine London has to offer.
Ronaldo has been given permission to let his hair down because he has plenty of time to burn off those extra calories - he’s not back in action again until November 24, when table-topping Juve welcome SPAL to Turin.
