I'm reading One By One

From page 27:

Ten minutes later I am standing in the open doorway of Chalet Perce-Neige, tray of glasses in one hand, watching a little group staggering and sliding down the path from the funicular to the porch.  None of them are wearing suitable shoes, and they've not mastered how to walk in snow, with short steps and your weight thrown forward, not back.  One of them, a very good-looking black guy, is carrying what looks like--yes, it is.  It's an empty bottle of Krug.  Great.  They're already drunk.
