Of course, we haven't learned crap, and have pretty much stayed with the one wine we know we like. We have no idea how to taste or describe a wine to this day.

Sideways has had an impact. I belong to a wine club and get a couple of bottles delivered every two months. We recently received this note with our shipment.
" Some club members have phoned or e-mailed us, asking when we will feature one or our fine Pinot Noirs in our wine club. Honestly, we wish we could, the the quick answer is, blame it on the movie "Sideways". So much interest has peaked in this alluring varietal that demand is at an all time high..."
I too am trying to learn more and slowly doing so. Being a member of a wine club is starting to increase my knowledge. They send you two bottles ( a red and a white ) every other months with a write up on each one. It is a neat way to learn more about wine. Mine is a lower end deal, around $30-$35 including delivery.
