Tipping the sommelier: Yes or No?

Hello all,

I was just wondering on other people's perspectives on this issue...

About 2 years ago when I was 19, I went to a restaurant (I cannot recall the name, but it was very expensive one) along with my girlfriend, and her parents, and from what I remember, girlfriend's father would tip sommelier, as well as putting down tip at the end of our meal.

I thought it was "normal" to tip sommelier, as girlfriend's father did. However, I overheard a conversation regarding this issue and thought I would ask people here..

So, yes or no?
