Tamara Lover, D.W.S.shares withFood52what she drinks at home.
It was the size of most people’s refrigerators.
With ninja-like stealth, I seized my moment and got a look at the collection.
The other night a neighbor came over for a quick visit.
When I returned from the kitchen with our drinks, I found her poking throughmywines.
I was flattered; she was embarrassed.
She quickly explained that she was curious about what a sommelier drinks at home.
Much like Ted, I do not have any big-label wines, expensive Burgundies, or vintage Champagnes.
(Those were consumed long ago.)
Rather, my house is stocked with really tasty, value wines priced under $30.
I’m proud of my collection of misfits.
And if you search the wine fridges of sommeliers around the country, you’ll find a similar group.
