    Yea…sad to see the Dolcetto creep up in price. This was always a great buy. Still is, but hard to find those complete steals for under 10 bones anymore.

    QOTD: 1. Best – ‘06 Casa Lapostolle Cuvee Alexandre Chardonay – IMO, one of the best >20 chards out there.

    2. Worst – ‘06 Chateau Pesquie Rose – I know they’re your boys and all…but, this stuff was oui’k. Total waste of time.

    The new wrist bands look sharp. The yellow rocks it!

    good deal with the microphone guys, as has been said though, it does sound a little wonky…if you are running some sort of noise reduction or such, turn it off, Gary’s voice is much too mellifluous for anything like that.

    Dolcetto rules. Out here in Ori-Gone I love the Dolcetto from Stag Hollow. Rare though…small production, can be hard to find. QOTD: my honey just got her job, so we went to the good shelf to celebrate and went freakin’ bonkers (for us at least…) with a 98 Drouhin Puligny Montrachet, Ken Wright’s 05 Savoya Pinot Noir, and a NV Brut from Aubry. As Muhammad Ali said, “It ain’t braggin if it’s true.”

    Also, if no-one got the three action figures the other day, on the next episode have Mott zoom in so we can get a better look at them. I couldn’t get a good shot of them before.

    The mic sounds like you have a head cold. I’m sure it’s convenient but sometimes old school is better
