I am coming to WL on the 29th! Can’t wait to check out your cheese section. I love wine and cheese.

I’ve been getting into the Pinot Gris coming out of Oregon…lots of great stuff in the 12 – 16 range.

You need to spread your wings and establish the West Coast Wine Library here in SoCal. The LA wine scene needs a New Jersey presence. Can’t make the trek on 29th. Wish I could.

No show, no chance. No Pinot G either. I am going to have a Blanco Nieva Sauvignon tonight though.

QOTD — Will do my best to be there, but like I said in my email, I’m really worried about parking!

Why only head to head? Why not California PG and French (Alsatian?) PG as well? I love that you’re doing the cross-terroir, but branch out a little bit more!

BTW — are these the Eisch “breatheable” glasses?

Woooo top 20. Will answer QOTD later. (I don’t even watch Chardonnay-only episodes).

Good show, Gary.

QOTD #1: Nope. Maybe the next time you do something in the Napa/Sonoma/SF area…

QOTD #2: Year after year it is the WillaKenzie Estate Pinot Gris. I don’t know how these guys do it, but their consistency is amazing.

QOTD: I would like to make it to the Dirty Jerz on March 29th, as it’s my birthday and I can think of no more fun place to celebrate my 29th b-day. But the girlfriend doesnt want to make the trek all the way from Wyoming to the winelib. GV, I’m tellin’ ya brother, I would LOVE to be there. Best.

Unfortunately no I will not be there. To be quite honest, I don’t remember when I did have a pinot gris, lol. Have a nice day

2 consecutive top 10’s. I should really get some work done.

QOTD 1 – Can’t make it, but look forward to the pics.

QOTD 2 – Don’t really have a favorite. Although, I know it is not Santa Margherita.

QOTD1: No, I’ll be far away
QOTD2: Probably the best so far is Tokay Pinot Gris Grand Cru Altenberg de Bergheim from Gustave Lorentz, Alsace.
