Now that's a corkage fee

By Andy Perdue, Wine Press Northwest

My bride and I are dining at Picazo717 tonight, and I was just looking at the wine list. I noticed the hilarious corkage fee:

"We charge a $15 corkage fee should you chose to bring in that special bottle of wine you've been saving for a special occasion."

And the kicker:

"A $25 corkage fee applies to California wines."

Now that's dedication to regionality.
