Favorite Barolo:
2001 Riserva Cannubi (Fratelli Serio & Battista Borgogno)
Not only a great wine, but I brought back a case of it from our trip to Italy last Fall. This place is actually in the town of Barolo, where we toured the facility and had a tasting. It was perfect!

Piper’s Pit hands down the best segments in WWF history. Possibly a close second any Ultimate Warrior promo because the rambling insanity tumbling out of his mouth was priceless. Annnnnywho….. More wines for me to try. Gary youre going to bury me! Might as well go to my local wine store and buy everything in house, eh? Damn me and my young wine palate. QOTD: I believe the last one I had was a Barberesco. Quite pleased with it, too.

oooh – I’d love to try the Sforzato Valtellina! Sounds Yummy!

QOTD ~ I gave my friend an Antinori Tignenello in November for her birthday since it’s her favorite wine. In December at our WoW – Wine on Wednesday – Christmas party she had opened it and smuggled a glass into Cru for me to taste, VERY NICE! Loved the Old World meets New World while grown in the Old World terroir.

Dude I love all your shows (tear…) but the ones about wines that are totally new to me are my favorites. QOTD: none. But now I have one to search out.

Hey GeeVee … it’s been SOOOO long since I tuned into a show (due only to my new job which is keeping me too busy). I can say without hesitation that I have missed you terribly! Checked out the FREE SHIPPER of the day, the
Sandro fay sforzato valtellina 2005, watched this excellent episode, and ordered myself a bottle! Thanks, as always, for helping to broaden our palates! Waiting for another “free shipping” offer to get a case or two, so please keep me posted! Hope you and yours are well. Darcey says hello!

Like Kirk I’m catching up on episodes at the moment and love it when you do the unusual ones.

QOTD – I’m trying a lot of Southern Italian wines recently, love Nero d’Avola, delighted in Aglianico – but always keep coming back to Amarone.

Italian wine? Hate the stuff. Don’t know why. It just bores me. I’m a French wine guy!
I tasted one Italian wine I sort of enjoyed and I don’t even know what it was because it was just the house wine and I only got a glass. Ah well. Chateauneuf de pape, anyone?

QOTD: I can’t say “best” because there are so many good ones but I enjoyed 2005 Paitin di Pasquero Elia Barbera d’Alba Serra Boella
