I must comment on the post above. I have had just the opposite experience with sommeliers. I enjoy asking their opinion, and I when I give them a range they always stay with in that range. I have never been upsold, and they always find something to enjoy with the dinner. I know enough not to order the "house" wine as that is the biggest mark up in the house. I'll consider myself the smart one and just ask for help from the sommelier and tell them what I want to spend.
