I work at Snooth, which is sort of a Gregarian paradise where the wine babbles, like a brook, and we talk back when we get out of our chairs. Mostly, we are here to serve our interesting and passionate users, but we also love the wine.

"Zinfandel, Petite Syrah I usually like. As for places I like a lot of the stuff grown in California and Oregon, strong dark reds that have a good tannic backbone and something interesting going on. What about you?"
