at a barriques 'wine 101' in the basement of the monroe street store. there was about a half dozen of us at matt's, one of the owners, training session. we learned about whites and reds from chardonnay to merlot, how to open the bottles, and what the heck a sommelerie is. matt was getting ready to pour the first (pinot grigo) of the five wines we were tasting. and one of my fitchburg colleagues was listening intensely on the other side of the bottles and dump bucket.
