A fair restaurant corkage fee is: 

$20

A tell-tale sign of a wine snob is: 

Smelling the cork. It doesn't even work, so the people that do it make me laugh.

The wine region I most want to visit: 

I love them all..

My biggest wine pet peeve: 

A cork breaking mid-removal! Arggg :-/

My dream wine to one day taste or own: 

Fave is Caymus

The people with whom I most often enjoy wine: 

My husband or girlfriends

The last wine I had that I absolutely loved: 

There was a white that was poured at my friend's wedding at the Four Seasons in Santa Barbara... as soon as she gets back from her honeymoon I'm getting the 411! It was the most delicious Chardonnay that I've ever tasted. And I'm a red-wine girl...

What I think of the movie Sideways: 

Loved it.

My thoughts on the 100 point rating scale made famous by Robert Parker and emulated by seemingly everyone: 

Eh. I've been pretty disappointed with the high 90's wines I've purchased at BevMo.

My wine travels have taken me to the following wine regions: 

Solvang, Paso, Temecula, Santa Barbara
