Todd: Now, Sandra, hello!


Sandra: Hello!


Todd: Now, you are a wine connoisseur 1. Or wine teacher. No?


Sandra: Not really!


Todd: Not really?


Sandra: A wine connoisseur. No, that's sort of a snobby 2....


Todd: Oh, really?


Sandra: Yes.


Todd: Oh, OK. So, how would you describe what you do?


Sandra: A wine professional.


Todd: A wine professional. OK, so what does a wine professional do?


Sandra: Try to make money from wine.


Todd: OK.


Sandra: So, I'm a wine writer, a wine columnist 3. I teach wine.


Todd: OK, so let's say if I'm going to have friends over, and I'm making, let's say, steak. I'm having a grilling 4 steak. Can I serve wine with steak?


Sandra: Yes. Steak goes with almost any red wine.


Todd: Oh, really? OK. So, red. How about if I want to mix wines. Is it OK to go red wine, white wine?


Sandra: You always start out with white wines going towards red wines.


Todd: OK, always go white wine first, then the red wine. (Yes) OK, and how about for dessert? Is there a special dessert wine?


Sandra: There are many great dessert wines, so it depends on what you like, how sweet you like and what you're making for dessert.


Todd: OK, so how about I'm making tiramisu.


Sandra: Terimisu, then I would probably have a tawny 5 Port, either from Portugal or from Australia, which makes great Ports, or you might even go for a fruity and oaky Zinfandel, which is dry wine from California.


Todd: OK, nice. How much will that cost me?


Sandra: Depends on how much you want to spend. For a port, a tawny Port, anywhere in between 3,500 to 10,000 (OK) And for a California Zinfandel, a good one probably about 3,000 (yen).


Todd: 3,000. I think I can maybe afford that. Not much. And, how about what would be a good wine to start off for like appetizers 6 or with a salad or something like that.


Sandra: I always start off with a sparkling wine.


Todd: A sparkling wine?


Sandra: Yes. I prefer Champagne 7 but if you can't afford it, even though champagne is the lowest price anywhere in the world is in Japan.


Todd: Oh, really?


Sandra: And many of my students load up on cases of champagne and have it sent home by their companies container.


Todd: Oh, wow.


Sandra: Yes. But champagne is a good starter.
