Great show. I feel that real wealth is measured in honest and supportive good friends. It would appear to me, Gary, that you are truly wealthy.

Hey very intersting show, enjoyed listening to a bit of banter.

QOTD: we didn’t have a holiday in HK, but on the weekend I drunk:
- Metcalf Valley Sav Blanc (tiny production from Central Victoria in Aus, mates vineyard and a surprisingly good wine)
- A very average and over priced Cote du Rhone at a restaurant
- Monte da Casta Vinho Regional Ribatejano 2004 (very smooth little Portugese number that’s worth seeking out)

Cheers

Wundershoen! This show was rockin’! Good to have good friends on the show! I love to see that Gary and friends are makin’ wine. Happy Labour Day to all blue collars!

I spent my week-end in Magog, QC. at the Fête des Vendanges 15th anniversary. Loads of fun. The red wine from Québec sucks but there is potential in the whites and the rosés especially from the Cep d’Argent and the Orpailleur. Gary should do a show on wines from Québec, Canada.

I’ve been drinking some Dolcettos from the Dogliani as well as Vinho Verde from Portugual, as well as Chateau Eugénie from Cahors. Good stuff!

Great show!

Gary, great show and a lot of fun. QOTD : I spent the weekend in wine country outside Portland drinking some yummy local juice. Highlights being pinot from Lemelson, Domaine Serene, Scott Paul and Archery Summit. Enjoyed some wines at the Carlton Winemaker’s Studio. FYI a producer you liked out of the CWS, Bodecker, is rumored to be moving production out, into NW Portland; so it might be a good place to stop if you can’t get outside town next time you are here. Also was thinking of you at the Tyrus Evan tasting room talking with a real knowledgeable gentleman about the 100% p.v. wines starting to appear out of eastern Washington and also how great cab franc is taking to that region. So on your recommendation, and also my natural inclination, I spent the weekend expanding my palate with people I love, taking advantage of industry discount.
let me know if you need any food suggestions in p-town,

I’m a bit late with this, but I loved this episode. Don’t get me wrong, I can only handle this type of show about once every couple months, but it was an epic classic! Neat wines, especially the merlot!

QOTD: Finishing up the oaky reds that I bought when I first got into wine (I was also into bourbon, and loved that oak… now I can’t stand it!)

Great show!

Someone probably already answered the cousin question but I’ll put in my 2 cents. Gary and Bobby are second cousins. Bobby’s dad and Gary are 1st cousins once removed. The once removed means they’re removed by a generation. (So Bobby and Gary’s dad are also 1st cousins once removed).
