Backtracking on his previous declaration of loving 1979’s wine, Brooklyn said: ‘I think old wine — you don’t know what you’re going to get.
‘I mean, I do have some old bottles. One of my favourite years was actually the last time England won the World Cup in 1966 — Mouton [a vintage Bordeaux]. I love that year.’
Commenters on the Sotheby’s Instagram page were quick to comment on Brooklyn’s ever-evolving CV as he tried his hand in another field.
They said: ‘Is this a joke?’, ‘Only above 2000, except 1966. That year in Bordeaux was fire’, ‘[laughing face emoji] he’s a sommelier now?’, ‘Can’t wait til he becomes an astronaut’, ‘Wow new hobby of a son!’

During the pandemic, Brooklyn launched his own Facebook Watch series – Cookin- With Brooklyn – in December 2021.
He has not claimed to have had any formal training and said he ‘just loves to cook’ as he shared his passion with his followers.
But his cooking suffered an array of backlash from fans, who had dubbed him ‘out of touch’ for using expensive products.
Often sharing videos to social media on how to make his recipes, Brooklyn has recently been called out for using a £300 joint of beef, alongside black truffle – which is notoriously expensive.

Asking whether he is award of the cost of living crisis, many fans blasted the self-proclaimed chef in the comment section of his video.
A year later, Brooklyn branched out into the drinks market as he revealed he was launching alcoholic drink brand, Wesake.
He said at the time: ‘Joining Wesake unites many of my different passions, including my fascination with Japan, cuisine, and my love for Sake.’
One of his earliest ventures was photography, where he publishing his own collection of photographs in a book titled What I See in 2017.
On one page, next to a picture of an elephant in the shadows, the caption read: ‘Elephants in Kenya. so hard to photograph, but incredible to see.’

While several fans defended him by saying he was ‘just a kid having fun with a camera’, it was pointed out that few of those would be handed a book deal with Penguin Books.
The 25-year-old has previously addressed the mockery over his many career paths. In 2022, he told Bustle: ‘My dad knew what he was doing at a very young age…It’s OK to be 25, 26 or even 30 and not know what you’re doing yet. You know what I mean?’
Beckham added to Insider in 2023: ‘I have more important things to worry about than people saying a little bit of rubbish about me.’
