vero Thinks:

A fair restaurant corkage fee is: 

$10 to $15

A tell-tale sign of a wine snob is: 

that they know better than you and won't listen to a suggestion.

The wine region I most want to visit: 

I'd really like to visit the CA wine country to see for myself!

My biggest wine pet peeve: 

Inappropriate serving temperature, overfilling the glass, and drinking wine fom plastic/styrofoam cups rank right up there... No, I don't think these are any signs of snobbery, but rather of good practices aimed at maximizing the wine drinking experience.

My dream wine to one day taste or own: 

I'd really like to try a Chateau d'Yquem to see what the fuss is all about.

The best wines I have ever tasted: 

Domaine de Granajolo Blanc (100% Vermentinu) from Corsica

The people with whom I most often enjoy wine: 

Friends, family, distributors, customers...

The last wine I had that I absolutely loved: 

Surprisingly, I recently finally tasted a Vino Verde I enjoyed. I had almost given up on them but found one worth trying.

What I think of the movie Sideways: 

Saw it and enjoyed it but I don't see it as a cult movie...

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

I was lucky enough to grow up in France and have fond memories of the vineyards in my native region, Alsace. I visited Burgundy, the Rhone, and the Loire areas a lot too. I also enjoyed Westport Wineries when I lived in Massachusetts.
