DON’T FEAR THE SOMM!

It is your buddy to have a sommelier. We are aware that the majority of individuals do not possess a comprehensive understanding of wine, and even if they do, it is possible that they are not acquainted with the wines that are offered at the restaurant where they are eating. Aside from the fact that you should choose a wine that you would like drinking, selecting the appropriate wine to go with your meal is a science in and of itself. It is true that food matching is a science; the science of wine pairing involves a number of considerations that you need to take into account in order to make your dinner more enjoyable. It is possible that your supper may be ruined if you choose the incorrect wine to combine with your dish. There are even wine matching menus available at certain establishments. So, this is the reason why we are here! Do you know of any sommeliers that get irritated when you purchase inexpensive bottles of wine or request wine by the glass? In the same way that there are meal servers who get irritated when a big party arrives and spends less than a table for two, an example of this would be the situation. Although we are here to generate money, a skilled sommelier is not concerned with that aspect of the job. You may be wondering why we do not care about it. mainly due to the fact that genuine sommeliers are really enthusiastic about wine, express their enthusiasm for it, and want you to have the same experience. When it comes to sales, even if you purchase a bottle of wine that is inexpensive, if we assist you in choosing the appropriate wine to complement the cuisine you are eating, there is a strong probability that you will return to our store and trust us to pick the appropriate wine for you (repeat business). People coming back because of a wine that I choose is something that I really like. When it comes to selling pricey bottles of wine, the majority of sommeliers who are aggressive about doing so are probably those who work in restaurants that are not very successful. I will be ecstatic if I am able to sell fifty dollar bottles throughout the night and everyone appreciates them. I was successful in my career, I earned money, and I left a lasting impression on others. If you are at a restaurant that has a sommelier, you should make advantage of who they are! We are not here to speak down to you or to walk behind you and laugh at how little you know about wine. We are here to engage in conversation. The question is, if you are going to spend forty dollars, fifty dollars, or five hundred dollars on a bottle of wine, would you not rather make sure that you are purchasing something that has been chosen by a professional, or would you rather spend the money and purchase something that is terrible and ruins the flavor of the food you are eating? Let me put it another way: if you think that forty dollars is a lot of money to spend on a bottle of wine, would you simply go through the menu and take a chance on the price, or would you at least let me select the bottle that is appropriate for forty dollars? Don’t be afraid of the soon! I am yours truly, the contemporary sommelier XxXXI
