In Sonoma, one of the easiest questions you get working at a tasting room is “how many bottles are in a case” or “does this Merlot make me look fat?” But, people here are a little different in the High Country. You still get a gaggle of girls piling out of a limo to snap photos, drink, and also taste some wines. Just overheard at a tasting room: “how should we taste wine?” The guy behind the counter replied with specific instructions on how to swirl wine in a counterclockwise direction. One of the south paw girls asked if she should swirl in the same direction as her right handed friends.
