It is time to tell some stories of the Somm. Curated from 100's of stories tableside by some of the most famous Somms in the trade.
Welcome to Lego-Style Sommeliers in Action — a wine comedy series where fine dining, restaurant life, and sommelier service are recreated with tiny plastic people who smile through emotional warfare. It’s wine education disguised as chaos, served with dry sarcasm and just enough dignity to keep everyone from crying into the Pinot.
Watch the world of wine culture as it really is: beautiful, obsessive, theatrical, and one guest comment away from disaster. Here, the cork may break… but the smile never does.
What you’ll “learn” (whether you asked or not):
🍷 What a sommelier actually does: translate phrases like “smooth but not boring” into bottles, while pretending this is normal.
🍇 Wine tasting notes are poetry: “wet stone,” “forest floor,” and “a whisper of regret” — all delivered with a straight face.
🥂 Wine pairing is diplomacy: keeping peace when someone orders Sauvignon Blanc with steak and calls it “adventurous.”
📚 The wine list is a weapon: heavy, intimidating, and occasionally used to establish dominance at the table.
😬 Guests don’t want advice: they want confirmation that they’re impressive for ordering the expensive thing.
🧊 Ice is a plot twist: because nothing says “luxury” like watching a sommelier’s soul leave their body politely.
🕯️ Fine dining is theatre: moody lighting, sacred rituals, and someone whispering “decant” like it’s a spell.
💥 Restaurant pressure is real: handled gracefully by tiny characters with zero elbow joints and maximum professionalism.
Perfect for:
wine lovers, hospitality veterans, and anyone who’s ever said “I don’t like Chardonnay” (because you had bad Chardonnay once in 2009 and now it’s your personality)
