A veteran world traveler, Yoda seems to prefer the white grand cru, Bâtard Montrachet, to the red, Romanée-Conti. The well-behaved Shih-Tzu's been with us in cellars, vineyards, tastings and restaurants all week, the lucky dog.
What we do is called "tasting with your feet." Nothing imprints a wine's characteristics on your memory like drinking it in the vineyard where it was grown.
