Buy some good wines and offer him a glass next time he is over. Let him start to associate fine wine with you, not her. I recommend wines from the Carneros Valley in California. I have found that you get what you pay for with wine, and a bottle of $20.- $30. is much better than a $10-$12. bottle. I'm sure everyone from California will say, "Of course, Sara is an idiot to have to figure that out."


Sara.. I learned this on my "sanity trip" to Sonoma when I took a solo trip to the wine country after the last bomb in October. I literally packed the car and started driving.. intended to start in Sonoma and make it to the coast but I fell in love with Sonoma and stayed there.

And I've lived here since I was ummmm 10 or so... so, it took me awhile too. ;\)

There ARE some great not quite as pricey wines but for the affect, I agree, offer him the fine wine that's "obvious."

The latest GREAT one I bought was a Frei Bros Estate Cabernet.. $20 or so and SO good.

Sebastiani... Bogle... for fun maybe a Viansa... good stuff.
