A fair restaurant corkage fee is:
A tell-tale sign of a wine snob is:
The ones that just talk so much about whatever it is they're talking about...hmmn, bragging about whatever it is they're bragging about...
all about them and their wine-chat, might as well have gone by themselves!
I just want to reach across the table...and say...shhhhhhhhhhhhh....now sip!
The wine region I most want to visit:
My biggest wine pet peeve:
Wines stored incorrectly...inevitably with a crumbly cork!
The best wines I have ever tasted:
Narrowgate Dunamis, Jodar Sangiovese, Garnet Sun Logrein
Truth be told, El Dorado County wines are by far our favorite -the wines are delicious and memorable...you have an opportunity to meet the vintners, the owners and it's an all around experience.
The people with whom I most often enjoy wine:
My husband Dave and now my daughters as well. Any time around the dinner table with family and friends!
The last wine I had that I absolutely loved:
2004 Jodar Cabernet....paired it with garlic lamb chops and roasted herb potatoes....mmmmmmmmmmmm
What I think of the movie Sideways:
Nah...enjoyed Bottle Shock much more!
My thoughts on the 100 point rating scale made famous by Robert Parker and emulated by seemingly everyone:
I don't pay any attention to the point system...I like to try wines for myself and see if I like it...
My wine travels have taken me to the following wine regions:
El Dorado, Amador, Napa, Santa Barbara, Monterey Counties...
