QOTD: Hate the sports teams so thats out. Never tasted any of the wines so theres a no go. Hmmm…. My friend Steph! Well she lives in the Seattle area now but she’s from there! She rocks it. Decent showing on the wines which was nice. Too bad the one wine was nothing but 2×4’s.

QOTD: GOT TO BE THE BUCKEYES! (Sorry native Ohioan, who is an entire ocean and most of another continent away from home) We are only 2 weeks from the season opener against Youngstown State. I hope I can get that game on the satellite.

LOL I was on the Ustream feed while you were taping this. I didn’t say the Jets sucked though. It is definitely illegal to Do livestock on the internet. You are even more pumped/hyper than usual in this show. I hate peas. What was that about number 11? He’s so 5 minutes ago now, isn’t he.
QOTD: In my 1st IT job I used to travel to Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton very often and enjoyed that, believe it or not.

Just to clarify… it’s Kinkead Ridge Revelation, not Revolution. Also, there is no Vidal Blanc in the blend. It’s predominantly Roussanne. We only grow vinifera. There is no residual sugar in this wine; you might be tasting the high alcohol content, 14.8%. Tiny production due to the frost of Easter 2007. I love the mouth feel of this wine. And “diaper” in the Viognier/Roussanne? Hmmm. This was a gold medal wine at American Wine Society.

I have to say Gary; most of the other 46 states are going to be too terrified to send you wine after the reviews of Ohio and Maryland!

And now for the good news; our web site got four times more hits than it ever has after your show! So I think a lot of people out there are watching your video blog.

I’m glad I sent you a selection. Wish you had reviewed the 2005 Cabernet Franc and 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon we sent. Keep an eye on us. The 2007 vintage was hot and dry and those wines will be high in alcohol, like California blockbusters.

QOTD: My favorite thing about Ohio is that both sides of my family are from Ohio; the Cincinnati area and its environs.

QOTD: My favorite thing about Ohio has to be King’s Island, the amusement park outside of Cincinnati. Going there as a kid provided me with some of my funnest memories.

My favorite thing about OH is that I share a name with a city in the OH.

QOTD: My favorite thing about OH is visiting my bud in Cleveland and catching up on old times — over some good wine and beers.

Despite my ingrained aversion to anything from certain areas of Ohio, like Columbus (its a college thing), some of the people I have admired most come from Ohio. BUt I still won’t touch a buck-eyed pea.

I have to add my vote into rethinking the ustream – it’s like having a conversation with someone who’s also on the phone – not nearly as good as having their full attention. Just my 2 cents.

It’s great to see wine from the “other 46″….Scary Oak Monster moment. And that diaper/ baby powder/ olive oil nose sounds a bit frightening to me. Eek!

QOTD: Probably my friend Lindsay- she’s from Ohio.

Not familiar with any of those wines.
Agree with you that eventually, we will have good wines from the majority of the 50 states.

QOTD – I was born in Ohio, but only lived there for a few years as a child. Therefore, I love the state for being the place where I was born. This made me a massive Cincinnati Reds fan, which was great in the 70s and for one season since then (they swept the 90 World Series!).

Never been to Ohio, but I would say my favorite thing related to Ohio would be the ESPN commericials where they slap buck-eye stickers on the helmets.

As for wines from the other 46 states, my wife and I have found that when we buy local states it seems as if the reds are never as good as the whites. So I’m interested in watching the Ohio show on reds to see what you think of them.

QOTD: Ohio is a GREAT place to live and raise a family which would be my favorite thing. With everyone else dying for fresh water, Ohio will be sitting pretty as global warming makes the South & West less desirable in the future.

The wines here are not my favorites due to the climate unless you like the sweeter wines. Best Ohio dry wine to date is St. Josephs Pinot Noir from Thompson, OH. A multiple medal winner in CA competitions. Have fun in Hudson Friday night.
