Summary
As a sommelier I enjoy being tasked with making peoples dining the best experience. I am the best person to talk to if you would like a recommendation of what to drink with a certain drink, but I am able to do more than that. I can keep the wine cellar pristine and stop the spoilage of drinks in the cellar.
