QOTD: Right now I’m drinking a very good German Riesling and it has managed to at least provide me with a good birthday night from an otherwise blah birthday day.

By the way, disappointed the Fopianno did stand up too well. Enjoyed their wines in the past, especially, their cabs.

Also, enjoyed Concannon’s PS in the past.

Enjoyed the show as usual!

Didn’t care about the wristband then don’t care about them now! Just wine!;)

Like the “Baseball Glove” reference. Don’t remember the wine but about two months ago caught some baseball glove(chewed string) leather in a wine. Thought it was pretty interesting.

Will be looking for the Rosenblum PS!

Drinking: Anything red!

QOTD: I’ve been drinking wines with really distinct and strong noses/flavors.

I had the Westerland 2005 Pinotage which has the overwhelming taste of Cigar tobacco ripping through it… I drank this wine and felt like I was sitting in my grandfathers living room – it was awesome and had a really nice long finish.

Another wine I enjoyed a bit less but had a fantastically strong scent was a Montepulciano d’Abruzzo that smelled exactly, and I can not be emphatic enough about how exactly this wine smelled, like a horse stable. Not a real dirty horse stable but one that had been cleaned and fresh hay was there for the horses. A bit abrasive and acidic on the mid palate and finish, but I went back for a second, third and fourth taste because it was so unique. Fantastic if you’re looking for a wine that will expand your palate.

QOTD 1: I got one of the original.
I also got a 1993 Foppiano Petit Syrah sitting in my wone fridge. Went to a tasting where you could try the same bottle through like 20+ years. The 93 stood out to me as excellent. So I bought a bottle.
QOTD 2: I am drinking: wine, beer and booze
But for some reason I have been really enjoying the Copolla Ivory lable. For $15 I like it..

QOTD… What am I drinking today? Recent top hits are 1) Wild Horse Pinot Noir, 2) Silver Oak Cab 3) Alamos Selecioin Malbec, 4) Fluer Des Pins Graves, 5) Martinetti Gavi. Gary, the Graves (WOW) and the Gavi were at your WLTV recommendations. The Graves was fantastic, blew my guests away. And the Gavi, which I never had before, was so spot on delicious that I will be adding that to my next case purchase. Keep up the great work!
