    Awesome show, Gary. Loved the interaction with the guest, and I think you might have just sold me on the book, too.

    QOTD: steak and portobello mushrooms with a little bit of onion and garlic, all ground up and fried together in a pie!

    QOTD: Brie and Prosciutto. I think pears need to be a part of the party, maybe a wine with a strong pear flavor would do it.

    I’m a huge fan of the Allan Scott Sauv Blanc. The past 2 vintages have been spectacular.

    Great to see the guest interview. Greater insight into New Zealand wine scene. Try some Wisconsin/UP pasties (meat pies)

    Does anyone remember Georgie Pie’s in NZ? I was an exchange student in NZ when I was 13 and thought those meat pies were money!

    Man, I can’t wait to get back to NZ – World Cup 2011!!!!

    Nice dynamic, solid episode.

    Haven’t had the Riesling, ut the Scott Sauv Blanc is very solid, and cheap.

    Yooo GeeVee & EA !
    Cooooool Episode!!! Gotta add EA’s Book to my collection!

    QOTD: “Meat” pies not me Bag, but have been known to
    woof-down a blueberry, cherry, peacon, or “mud” pie
    on a rare occasion. Yummy!!

    Huh, now we know: Wine Spectator is watching/lurking the thunder-show too! Great Ep Gary. Well done Eric!

    Randy

    QOD: If it hasn’t already been said: I want Gary’s enormous ego baked into a pie! OK, either that or a pound of the best crisp green apples that have ever grown on a tree.

    Eric, cool to see you on WLTV, hope the book is selling like a New York Times Bestseller!

    Fun show. I would like to see seafood in the pie.

    Craig

    Okay.. I was hooked. The book is on order. Perhaps a Christmas gift, perhaps for me to keep.

    Hey, cool, now Gary has an opportunity to wear my last name on his t-shirt! (and no, fellow Vayniacs, I am no relation to Rowdy Roddy…)
    QOTD: What I really look forward to seeing baked into a meat pie is Alan Rickman, in the upcoming movie “Sweeney Todd”! But, as that is mere cinema fantasy, I would have to say bacon, gorgonzola, onion and tomato.

    Good to see some more young blood in the wine biz. EA……man you got a set on you to just pack up and go. That would be awesome. Can’t wait til next week Gary, let’s see what you got.

    QOTD: I am not familiar with meat pies, but at this little place we go they make a homemade duck sausage that is wrapped in pastry dough and served with a maple dijon sauce. It is fantastic, and it is only meant to be an apetizer…….if they served larger portions it would be a great meal.

    I bet you could make it like a Reuben sandwich with the Kraut and Corned Beef, with a side of 1000 island dressing to dip it in, that would rock….maybe I can get my wife to make that for lunch and give it a shot.

    QOTD-
    Spicy Thai Pie, can go with: beef, chicken or vegi…
    sounds good actually, no?

    Come on gary ! you should serve less wine in your host’s glass I was impressed !

    Karl Laczko

    Good show Gary, a nice dynamic there with Eric, although I don’t think he was too impressed when you overfilled his glass!

    QOTD – I loved the sound of that Curry filling, so I’d put a Thai twist to that and go for a Thai Green Curry & chicken pie – a bit of cocount, a bit of chili, a hint of Lemongrass and Lime………

    QOTD: Just like some summers when I was a little kid…blackberries picked from my Auntie Thora’s yard on Vancouver Island (now the locale of some up and coming wineries) and then she would bake them into the most awesome pie.
