QOTD: I havent had enough to really answer that, but I did have a Villa Maria a while back that while not impressive, was still a decent wine. I also had a Kim Crawford which was pretty decent as well, so I will def. be buying more in the future. Not scared of the cat pee!!!!

Best SB I had while I was in NZ (and I had quite a few) was Mount Riley.

I’m with you on the Kim Crawford, it’s not worth the price.

QOTD: I’ve not had any really great SB’s, but I will look for the Chasing Venus.

QOTD: Babich, 05 or 06 (don’t remember). Great classic NZ SB.

Speaking of, I’m heading to NZ for the first time in April, can’t wait!

QOTD: I have yet to try one! Gotta get myself moving…

Good episode. I’m impressed at your ability to so thoroughly treat SEVEN wines in 20 minutes. Craaaazy. Or just radool.

QOTD: Easily and by a mile the Craggy Range SB. Undeniable NZ fruit but it has great body to go with the stones, veggies, and earth flavors. World Class!

Would have been nice compare areas outside of Marlborough (Hawkes Bay or Martinborough) since I’ve found better wines there.

It’s been a while since I’ve answered a question of the day, I’m behind, Gary.

QOTD: I think it’s the Brancott 2006, though I’ve only had a handful and I’m not a big fan overall. The gassiness and the sharpness is too much for me.
