qotd I know that episode is long gone, but how about one on vin jaune's?

Interesting episode on value wines in that I have had Viticcio and the Sunday Mountain. My take... I hated the sunday Mountain and I'm a fan of Malborough Sauvignon Blancs.s It was all cat pee to me and not much else. Finish was really short and that was in fact a blessing. The Viticcio makes a great pizza wine unless there are anchovies then it seems a bit unhappy. No anchovies..good combination and a price you can't beat.

I too would love to see an episiode on Virginia Wines because I'm from Virginia and have never had a single one I liked. Maybe GaryVee can reveal a good one.

Great episode love the bargains!

You should try to get in the store Almira Los Dos. It is a Syrah/Grenach that is a SCREAMING bargain. My friend gave me this, told me it was like 5 bucks, and it was AWESOME!!!!! Would love to see you try it and definitely have it in the store.

Gary,really liked this episode!! I ordered all 4 Wines from the WL !!

Yuw, Gary. Great, your rant about labels. Love to hear somebody say that out loud on a punchy ironic way.
QOTD: of course to late for that. But I do have an idea: why not do a show (or more) about the preconceived notions on wine?
C ya,
t.

Excellent episode. Please do this more often.

QOTD: How about an episode where you just taste wines made from more obscure varietals?

QOTD: Backsberg Pinotage

Gary, nice energy on the episode !! You was
in top form..........

40 octane? I prefer my shiraz to be about 110 octane. :)

Cool show, the Sangiovese looks like it's worth a try.

Excellent Episode!

Gotta love that cat pee!!!

QOTD: How about Sherry?

finally, made it to 163 spot. Suhweeet!

I lurk - therefore I am -- first post ever!

QOTD: The grapes of Sicily. Frapatto and Nero d'Avola in particular.

I feel clean.

QOTD: I vote for Loire vs. California Cab Franc

Hay you got the wrong episode on the iTuns feed check that out

I like the analogy of the dentist …. Wondering ware you got that inspiration from
Just kidding!

qotd:
3)south africa

QOTD: Spring time, April showers bring May flowers and Summertime brings hot days chillin on the patio with some well chilled rose....

QOTD: South African Wines! Much undiscovered value in this area.

Hey my dentist IS an APPLE TOO!! Wierd!
QOTD: Probobly too late but my vote is
1)German/Austrian reds
2)Italian whites or obscure southern Italian reds

I am going to the finger lakes next weekend. Can anyone reccomend a must visit winery? What is Gary's E-Mail Address, the link does not work?

gary, i'm gifting wines to a south african friend - how about an episode where you recommend a half case of interesting, balanced, complex wines representative of their terroir, each under $25. don't want the gift to get thrown back in my face...

QOTD...wines used to bribe the IRS when they come knocking on our door?

Great episode

What the heck is going on here?? My posts looked just like #148 and #150 but never appeared. Help. SOS.

QOTD : How about decent Cali Cabs under $25.00 are they out there?

"this wine really stungs my pants off"

funniest damn thing I have heard you say about a wine to date

Little late but QOD. Northern Rhone Syrah. Do the different villages against each other. A Hermitage, Cote Rotie, Crozes, St Joe episode would be GREAT

I LOVED the Beer Pong reference! You surprise me every episode!

Great show ! How about tasting some Spanish Rioja and share some you knowledge about Tempranillo and wines made of. Thanks for great wine info.

Great episode!!!
I would give people what they want. Give them a pinot episode with a twist:
Try pinots from totally different areas of the world all under 20 bones:
One from New Zealand: http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=28840
One from France (alsace): http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=9896
One from Chili: http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=30982
One from Canada: http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=5073
Even from Germany, that Ian scored a 91: http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=30555

QOTD: Some suggestions; 1) ice wine, 2) supposedly there are quality box wines out there (I doubt that WL sells them but if you should do maybe you could give one or two a whirl) and 3) rumor has it that spring is here and summer is just around the corner so how a about suggesting some Roses and lighter summer wines to stock up on before the season.

QOTD:
1. I think the obscure grape should be the theme. How about some Portuguese reds. Certainly not many of us are familiar with their indigenous grapes only found there! I attended a Portuguese wine event on Sunday and I was pleasantly surprised. How about:
a. http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=3208
b. http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=29718
c. http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=29836
d. http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=29935
e. http://winelibrary.com/reviewwine.asp?item=30392
2. Altenatively another blind tasting would also be fun.

Cheers!

Great episode. Will give two of these wines a try for sure.

qotd: how about tasting some of those inexpensive spanish reds that supposedly all get 90 point scores?

South Africa would be a great episode. Just thought I would let you know. Thanks for another interesting episode.

Hi Gary,
good idea with the viewers picks.
How about: Library Code: 4187
or Library Code: 30097
or any other Sardinian wine?

Interesting comment on the Petit Syrah. It was created by crossing Peloursin and Syrah grapes by Dr. Francios Durif by whose last name it is known in it's native France. The berries are smaller and more tannic than Syrah but are not COMPLETELY unrelated to Syrah.
QOTD- more Italian value wines, me likey. Thanks.

Great ep . love the value wines . How about argentina wines ?
