Sandra : Hello!
Todd : Now, you are a wine (connoisseur). Or wine teacher. No!
Sandra : Not really!
Todd : Not really?
Sandra : A wine connoisseur. No, that's sort of a (snobby).
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). 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 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 terimisu.
Sandra : Terimisu, then I would probably have a tawny 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) 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 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.
