QOTD: Two of my wines that I want to try asap are Charles Joguet ‘Les Petites Roches’ Chinon (100% Cab Franc), which I understand is made in the Beaujolais method (I haven’t liked any Gamay to date, so hopefully a different flavour profile from the Cab Franc!). Also I want to pop the Marques De Murrieta 1998 Rioja Blanco Gran Reserva (100% Viura) bought for £11 ($14-18?), it’ll be the most aged white i’ve had, and pretty inexpensive for a wine that old!…

What an episode – you succeeded with the description — I swear I could taste the cherry and other flavs as you described it.

How do you know your #13? How can we make #1?

Coolest thing I drank that weekend was the 2002 Penfolds Shiraz St. Henri. Very Old-World in execution, needs decanter time. Very pleased to have more to age.

I am catching up on some old episodes (been traveling) and last weekend the best wine I drank – Easter weekend – was a Cote de Nuits bourgogne.

It is a little too late but for that weekend I would have drank the wines I listed in the previous episode. The ‘97 Castello di Ama Chianti Classico and the 2005 Domaine de Ladoucette Pouilly Fume. Both are fully worth the search and price.

Great episode – catching up finally. QOTD: Turns out I randomly had that Chante Perdrix this past weekend. Not sure I felt the Slim Jim action – but I hadn’t seen the show yet, so I wasn’t focused on it. But, from what I remember, your notes are on point. Great focus and balance.

Gary, I have never commented on any of your previous shows. My father introduced me to the show just under a month ago, but I’m already a vayniac! I have watched several of your shows, but this one, kicked some serious ass! Keep it up Gary…MORE THUNDER!
