How much oak is “too much”? Is it diminishing the fruit of the wine? Is it overbearing? Does it dominate the wine? Or is it merely a key characteristic that YOU don’t particularly care for? I have been to Trinitas, loved their wines.

GO RAIDERS!

Ouch. Id be dropping bricks all over the place once I got my hands in the cuffs. Nice to see everything worked out. For some reason I was thinking the way you were telling the story the cop knew who you were and was having a bit of fun with you. And as I watch this, I have indeed been watching since episode one. Go me! Oak plus poop plus Fabreeze? Well that just sounds all kinds of yummy to me…. mmmm mmmmm. Is there ever a show where you dont have a totally bizzare way to decsribe a wine? Yes or no, its a part of the brilliance of WLTV. Yet again, ive never had a Red Zin but promise that I will in the future. The 2001 Sky sounds like it would make my pallate happy.
QOTD: Journey. Yes, the band Journey. How can you not like the absolute dorkiness of this band? And Steve Perry’s voice? Come on! Not the greatest songs by a long shot, but something about Perry’s voice and Neil Schon on guitar (he was in Santana, you know) make it work.

Good call on Roger Clemens not doing anything when he came back to the Yanks.

Bring a video camera next time you go to a Raiders game. I’d love to see an 80 year old grandma in Road Warriors gear get in a three-point stance and charge at you! Next time do a head slap and slide to the right.

Awesome, never heard of Sky, you made me want to try it. I’m getting sick of these explosive zins, they were fun for awhile.

Gary, I love your honesty and enthusiasm. I’m new to wine, but have found that Zin and Cab are my favorites. I like something that lingers for oh… eternity. Could you do an episode on a winery from Washington state called L’Cole 41? I love their wine, and they are good people. Very streight forward wines. I didn’t really like Chardonay much, but their 2005 changed my mind in a big way. I would love to hear your view on it.

GV: Eric, smell this.
Eric: Smells like wine.
GV: Eric, taste this.
Eric: Tastes like grapes.

Guilty pleasure was up until the end of the show Gilmore Girls. Since I am a big fan of Zinds this was fun, probably much more fun than getting arrested in LA. As a passenger I’ve never been asked for a driver’s license at a stop so I guess some bad luck there. Are the Sky and Haywood pretty available?

QOTD: Eating a whole pint of Ben & Jerry’s or Starbucks ice cream.

Great show!
