You completely scared the crap out of the poor guy when you started the show. Too funny.

love the episode.

QOTD: no time to visit any other wineries, too busy making wine this year.

sooooooo glad you had the “whether they like it or not” on the end!

Great stuff! I love all these winery visits. Love seeing the owners/winemakers and thier passion for making these wines. QOTD: First things first. I need me a passport then we can talk about me visiting and doing some summer work for you. …I also love watching your guests get totally caught off guard when you ask them to ask a QOTD.

Behind on the shows – just watched this one today. Loved it! During the first week of June this year I spent a few days in Bordeaux with chateaux visits and great food. We visited about 10 places and I have to say that the visit to Latour Martillac was probably the best: the reception, the tour (no pun intended), and the wine: all was fantastic! Thanks Pascal!! They were botteling the 2006 while we were there – great to see.

all the spaniards go to bordeaux to pick
side note – i had a 1989 la tour martillac rouge last year and it was nice, real nice. my host had the bad idea of serving it with new wave tai, so i held off on eating as much as possible. anyhow, it had some life in it still. it was goooood.

What a charming, terrific episode. I love when you have guests. The shows are always great, but lately they have been special. Thanks so much for that. I am a bit behind on episodes but getting caught up this evening

Wow, I’m late. The look on Tristan’s face when you said you got a hint of “Sweat sock” in the 86 was fun to watch. Good show.

I’ll have to try a white Bordeaux, as I am a fan of Sancerre and the Sauvignon/Semillon grapes in general.

QOTD: Not planning a trip to France any time soon, but I am very much enjoying this virtual tour of Bordeaux, especially with great guests like Tristan.

QOTD: Well, I’ll be in Fronsac in less than a month. I dunno about Graves- that’s on the other side of the river!
