Visited Louis Martini in March, great history, nice tasting room. They make a very good Cab for under $20 bones, interesting show, enjoy drinking older reds, not this old. QOTD-music. www.winelx.com

OK, I’ve seen lots of wonderful, free videos, but you guilted me into leaving a comment.

This was a great show. Martini was my favorite, and in 2001 I bought my first case of Louis Martini. I emailed their website & asked whether it was good for aging, and a nice woman wrote me back and said that most people preferred to drink them young for the fruit. At that point, I had no idea what she meant, but I figured she obviously knew something I didn’t.

Highlight of the ’60′s was going to India in 1969 to Meher Baba’s Darshan, his being the only Avatar or guru to grace the cover of the Rolling Stone. Quote: “Only the grace of a Perfect Master can make you experience the God-State in a flash after he makes you drink the wine of his divine love.”

The wine of divine love is presumably something somewhat better than 1990 Petrus, but as Gary says, everyone has their own palate.

Gary, I enjoy what you do, and I love letting you taste all this wine. It is easier on my wallet & my liver, which is somewhat beat up by chemo.

May the good lord bless you, whoever you think Him (or Her) to be….

QOTD: Born in the 80s, not massively clued up on the 60s but it’s gotta be the music, maybe The Beach Boys…

Great, great show. Nice to see you pay respect to a winemaker you have respect for. QOTD: The music scene. The Beatles, Stones, Hendrix, and Dylan putting out some of the greatest rock music ever made…just beautiful stuff. QOTD2: Nope….but hopefully someday.
