That's the 2nd time since your 1st episode that I remember you having a BV wine on there. Maybe I'm wrong, but while I always viewed BV as being well known, I always viewed it as being well known the way boone's farm is well known, almost. A trockenbeerenauslese on this episode would have been nice to see. Maybe in the future you'll throw one on, a charbono or vin jaune episode would be really cool too.

I really do need to try some Tokaji, though!

I'm often hesitant to try them myself because of their cost. This really helped give me a better idea of what to look for and what to stay away from. Thanks for tasting these desert wines.

Question - Where does the 2001 D'Yquem rank...better or worse that the 1990?

I really liked your wine blog on dessert wines. Let me correct 2 things in your blog: the spelling of TOKAJ (name of the town and region) and TOKAJI (the wine of Tokaj region). There is a difference between ASZÚESZENCIA (12-14% alc) and ESZENCIA (free-run juice, max. 2-3% alcohol) best wishes! Do a tasting on dry Tokaji FURMINTS too! :) Roland Hi Gary!
