Love Jancis!
Love you!
The reason people tell you how many bottles are in their cellars is both boasting of their disposable incomes shopping addiction) and their devotion to enjoying the art of wine. They are essentially saying “Good wine is this mush of a priority for me in terms of enjoying life,” something ang moved off beauty and the arts one can easily appreciate.

The real answer that she didn't give: "Yes, they should, but screw that because my career is in the US where I can make the big money".
