So with that, I'd like to see you do a vin jaune episode, and one on a charbono tasting. Last wine I had? Actually was a charbono, gave the '07 Robert Foley a try. Hadn't had it for a couple of vintages, better than the last one I had. Also had a killer Priorat the other day, been tasting some Jura wines recently too. I'm always on the lookout for the lesser known gems out there. well there’s always tomorrow. So with that, I’d like to see you do a vin jaune episode, and one on a charbono tasting. Last wine I had?

I know it was crazy for you tri-staters- it was weird enough for me who had just been to the city and went to the observation deck on the tower while visiting. QOTD: Well, I've been drinking the 2005 Le musclé and the 2004 Bertrand Bergé cuvée ancestrale. Tonight I cracked open something exotic- Boutari Retsina (not quite sure of the vintage). Decided to try a Greek wine. Not a fan of this because it's aged in wood casks with pine resin. I feel like I'm eating the forest floor in Maine. You're scared of the Oak Monster GV (as am I), but I found something worse- the Pine Monster! This was a really classy way to commemorate the day GV.
