Oregon pinots? Ponzi reserve, Argyle Nuthouse and Reserve, Shea vinyards, Erath estate selection, Bethal Heights, Chehalem vinyards, Benton Lane,,,, i could go for days…. as a side note alot of Oregon wines are made to be drank younger,, 4 to 7 years…. the acids and tannins are more delicate than Burgundian blends,, younger vines,, softer weather,, more rain… delicate, elegant, soft and fruity. i love them!!!

Oregon Pinot Noirs are great, but you missed my favorite: Willamette Valley 2004/2005….heck, even the 2006 Whole Cluster Pinot Noirs. Tons of fruit, easily accessible. Love it.

Gary- For about the third or fourth time, I could not view the episode on the day of release (the video stops every 5-10 seconds), but I had no problem the next day which is today 11/30. Also Gary, my brother has lived in Oregon for 25 years and assures me the correct pronunciation is: OR A GUN with an even accent on each syllable and said quickly.

Marc Mc- I agree with you on the Nueske’s bacon from tiny Wittenberg, WI
QueSS- The Nueske’s is applewood smoked. Order at 800-392-2266 or visit nueskes.com

QOD- I love bacon for breakfast and it makes a great wrap for many grill items from fowl to veggies

Gary – you have said to put our tasting requests in the comments and you will (eventually) do it. Well, while I’m waiting for some made long ago, I’ll add another, Library Code: 3867.

What are my thoughts on Bacon?!?!? What AREN’T my thoughts on bacon!! There is absolutely, positively, without a question, abso-smurfly, nothing wrong with bacon. It’s perfect. Just like WLTV. Actually, I’ve never, ever, ever, erver, nerver have spit bacon before, so maybe bacon IS perfect.

OK…great episode. I will be a HUGE Jets fan if they beat Green Bay this weekend. Seriously. See you later,
GO BEARS (AND JETS–this week)!!!

I love bacon. Goes well with a lot of things!
Too bad I am outside the USA, so I can not order the amazing sixpack to taste semi live..

Keep uncorking the nice bottles

Though not too important, but people here in the northeast pronounce Oregon as Or-e-gone. Around the rest of the country (and particularly in Oregon) it’s pronounced Or-a-gun.
Just got back from Spain. Had some good wines, but wish I’d have been there longer.
