"I used to be a control freak, but now I'm learning to delegate, which is very nice." [4:15]
"If you like wine but want to know a bit more, establish a relationship with a good local retailer, the same way you would with a local bookseller. Tell them what you like so far, and it's in their interest to lead you to something else." [29:10]
