Fun ep; loved the baseball stuff!
This is the direction I think “laid-back” Fridays shows should go -
couch or no couch – mini-office party with friends, family, food,
wines and good times.

I can’t even tell you how excited I am about this new baseball card intro. Those hologram stickers COVERED my notebook back in 2nd and 3rd grade. So great to see those things again.

QOTD: I don’t believe in “locks”, but I am going to say that I think the Skins are going to continue their streak…

Sad day in DC. Read that Eddie Brinkman died. Yet another Washington Senator. Great fielder……. couldn’t hit for squat.
Again, I enjoyed the cheese show. We pair quite a bit with cheese’s, and I was interested in what a few more days would do to their flavor. Expected results.
QOTD………………….pass. (don’t find football interesting. Or for that matter, basketball and baseball). Having said that, I am following James Madison Universities football team, as two of my sons graduated from there several years ago. JMU is currently ranked #2 in Div. 1AA, and, oh yeah…doing pretty good).

I love CLTV. Once GourmetLibrary.com gets going full swing I think Everett and the others in the gourmet section should put out an episode once a week. What do you think?

Loved the show! I would rather watch you drink wine and eat cheese or pizza or steak and not spit wine.It kills me to see you waste good vino.
October 3, 2008

Diego
I have two favorites. The best is probably a Tomme de Savoie that a fellow cook smuggled into the country from the french alps. Sick stinky gooey cheese. The next best was a young soft cheese that I had in Chile that was cured with Merquen, a chili spice blend.

Those cowgirl cheeses look ridiculous!

I love the cheese and wine shows. My mother passed along the cheese loving gene to me. Just as she did I have cheese every day.

QOTD: about to start sipping a Domaine Ligneres Aric 2002. Now for the cheese………?

opening a 2005 Maybach this weekend. I know it’s a baby but I’ve been itching to try one? BTW, Everett are you supposed to eat the rinds or is it wrong not too? I like both the Mt. Tam and Redhawk but the rinds ruin them for me.

try some camembert ! it s my favourite cheese from france; it s nice and creamy and evolves with time. Gary, you would love it !
October 3, 2008

sam
Mmmm…mmmm cheeze. I love wine with cheeze. I find stronger, firmer goes with red better and softer, cremier cheezes go better with white. Maybe that’s just me.

I’m not quite sure what I’m drinking yet for this week-end…going shopping tomorrow. My sommelier friend Bill got a couple interesting things like St-Estèphe and Fronsac and Bandols and what not. I’ve really been into Bordeaux wines lately both red and white.

Y’all have a good week-end!
October 3, 2008

Peter
Great show. I’m an Oregon boy, so Tillamook is always nice. Other than that, I love Kerrygold and all other Irish cheeses. I had a nice bleu cheese from Ireland recently…

I hope you guys are stocking up on the Cowgirl cheeses, as I’m sure some of us are going to want to snatch that up during the upcoming sale/Super Tasting weekend!

Tonight I’m drinking Rusden Driftsand from the Barossa Valley. 60% Grenache, 40% Shiraz, 100% Tastilicious
October 3, 2008

everett, i live about 20 minutes north of petaluma, you should try point reyes blue cheese – one of my favorites along with humboldt fog goat.
I’m drinking some of the galvs costieres de nimes which i got off free shipping – which i appreciate, but that wine was thumbs down. oh well, bring gary v, you the man.

Love the cheese episode. I was eating prosciutto, stilton blue, saint louis triple cream brie, and a baguette when I clicked on WLTV and lo and behold, there sits Everett. Great timing….

QOTD – Watching MLB Playoffs and drinking 2003 Tablas Creek Esprit de Beaucastel tonight. I was in the mood for something that rocks the house.

Arnold Callego
Cheese library makes me soooooo hungry! I’m going San Diego 34, Miami 14. I’ll be eating some triple cream and other stuff and drinking & finishing up a Gruner Veltliner (Leth), the rest of the albarino & syrah from the secret pack, and a Portugese red 2005 Grao Vasco. Have a great weekend!

Excellent Show, I loved how you did the follow up on the cheese!

QOTD: I am thinking of opening up a Bottle of Refosco and maybe a Foch this weekend, but we will see how everything rolls out

Herb
Yeah, I’ll give you a mortal lock…listen up. The Tampa Bay Rays are going to win the World Series.

Did you hear me?

BTW: Rays manager Joe Maddon is a big fan of wines, just like us. He’s made several guest appearances on local Tampa Bay cable tv shows, talking about his favorite wines and his desire to expand his palate.

Matthew L
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm….cheeeeeeeeeeeeeese! Great show with Everett.

QOTD: Seems like an easy lock is for my sorry-azz Lions to lose. They play the Bears this Sunday. This is close to the “Who Cares?” game of the week.

Watch out for upsets for Buffalo in Arizona and Tennessee in Baltimore.
October 4, 2008

Love the cheese episodes you are rockin with “the Beard”. I had to go out and get some Mt. Tam after the first episode, great stuff, but Petite Basque still owns the crown. The Carlos Baerga is by far the best card so far.

QOTD: GI Ants 27 – Hawks 16

Cool episode. I was starting to wonder when we would see this episode.
October 4, 2008

I like this guest. Needs maybe a ribbon in his beard? kidding. he’s a good guest. Like the cheese shows, just as impossible to find locally as the wines you do (dig) but interesting. Makes me want to raid the local cheese store and just taste. Gotta love Cowgirl cheese, hope to find them.

It was great to see you pig out on cheeses and almost ignore us. haha.

When is Oct 8th? Want to see your specials!!! smile.
QOTD: I like soft stinky cheese. (is that a song?)Wines for the weekend: Cab, some Pinot Gris and a Port.
October 4, 2008

Good to be back, GV…I have been gone for a while, but I picked a great day to tune in to WLTV!!! Great episode, loved the cheese guy, and I just want to grab myself some great cheese right now!
October 4, 2008

QOTD: French and South American reds. Though, I’ve been wanting to try French whites. I guess it’s all going to depend on which meals I cook, also.
October 4, 2008

John D.
Great episode! Would definitely like to see more episodes on cheese & wine pairings. Loved the follow-up and the Brandon cameo. Everett rocks.

QOTD: Found a nice little Spanish wine called Care (50% Syrah, 50% Tempranillo) from the Carinena region for only $8. Quite nice, especially with a little decanting.
October 4, 2008

Everett the cheese man. Love the stuff. Keep up the great work.

Wait a minute, the QOTD was a football pick. Ummm, Tampa over Denver 20-10, even though I hate Gruden.

Great show Gary….good to see you enjoying them cheeses
October 4, 2008

T. Bone
Isn’t baseball just a bunch of fat older guys who can’t run? At least with football you know those guys are breathing hard.

Drinking a Conde de Valdemar Reserva 2001. It’s got the Rioja earthy, fresh cow manure thing in spades, but it’s also fairly acidic with a backend bitterness. Not overly pleasant as a cocktail wine, and it didn’t really stand up to my New York strip either. I’m guessing there’s a good pairing for this bad boy out there, but it’s not on my table.

Love the cheese episode. Would like to see more wine involved, but it’s cool to hear more about the stinky goo. Have always enjoyed cheese, but have not expanded my pal(ate) in that direction, usually stick with the fairly obvious stuff, even when I dabble in the gourmet section. You have inspired me to try something new this weekend….
October 4, 2008

Augustus
As a Bruin, I have to just PRAY that UCLA wins at least one more game this season. Right now I’m destroying unoaked whites and ripping good reds from Spain. I also stumbled upon a delicious Cab from Chile that I would highly recommend.
October 4, 2008

liz
I’m a huge football fan, but terrible at predicting scores…I’ll leave that to you. However, I can answer your second question. This weekend I will be drinking my secret pack! I’m doing it vayniac style. Three friends and I will be sitting down to food, wine, and episode #548.

Really enjoying the cheese episodes. I had Cowgirl cheese once when I was living in Rhode Island from a wonderful cheese shop in Providence. I fell in love with it. Thanks for reminding me how good it is. I must go out and find some here in California.

Hey Gary,
Check out Sin Zin 2006 Zinfandel out of Alexander Valley. It’s 20 bones here in the midwest, but worth every penny.

QOTD: I know nothing about football.

Great show, perfect vibe, it’s a vibe I like to have. Thanks to Everett and you Gary we bought some Mt. Tam and Red Hawk last week from Farmstead in Providence. Not a huge lover of the Mt. Tam, leaned more toward the Red Hawk. But it was great to try both.

SAD STORY: Steve Buechele was one of the most popular TX Rangers ever. Does that tell you how much bad baseball I have endured over the yrs. Still love him though. Now the new Rangers story is that anyone that bought a brick for the Rangers walk of fame when the Ballpark opened can COME PICK IT UP (not have it delivered). The Rangers are ripping them out. “paved paradise and put up a parking lot”
October 5, 2008

Bernie Bearnaise
It is nice to see you highlight Cowgirl Creamery. I have a friend Bill Conley whose sister Sue is one of the founders. His favorite cheese is also the Mt. Tam. They have a retail outlet here in downtown DC. I need to find your Tarragona Vi de Nulles Blanc and enjoy your find with some Mt. Tam after proper ripening. Good man Everett.

I had a wonderful Pinot Noir from Russian River Valley by Walter Hansell, Cuvee Alyse. Probably will open a 2001 Catena Angelica Merlot if the Redskins can overcome the Philly faithful. They egg the team bus and throw batteries at the players. I hope that just motivates the Skins. We softened the Cardinals up for you so you owe us. I told you Brett would be accurate with his gun but 6 TD’s is overacheiving by the future Hall of Famer.

I drink mostly red wine so I like harder cheeses like Manchego and Reggiano.

Keep up the good work Gary as the diversity of the wine world is its strength. South Africa is making quite a stir at the Decanter world awards in a way that reminds me of when Napa had its coming out party in the judgement of Paris. I need to explore that area more. (hint)

Fun episode and you definitely need to do more Cheese Library shows in the future with Everett. I also liked the inclusion of a wine – more in keeping with WLTV.

QOTD: Lock of the week? Well, neither the Browns nor Jets will lose this week.

This weekend? Well, Friday night we went to Hyde Park Steakhouse in Cleveland and we had a bottle of 1996 Clos du Val Cabernet that was pretty nice. I always like getting older wines, especially cabs and this one was pretty decent. It still had good fruit and a nice smoky bacon and licorice component. Then we had a bottle of Blackstone Rubric red blend from Sonoma. I didn’t care for it, although the mixture of grapes (which included petite verdot and tannat) was interesting. Unfortunately the wine was rather boring and was medium bodied at best. The waiter recommended it, but I certainly wouldn’t. Last night I was on the Newark to Geneva flight so I had a 2006 Corbieres that was quaffable enough. Tonight we are probably going to the pizza restaurant near our hotel. We are likely to have a Montepulciano d’Bruzzi or a Nero d’Avola with various pizzas.
October 5, 2008

WineWoman
MMMmmmm..the close-up on the gooey cheese definitely made me hungry for some cheese on today’s agenda. I purchased some roaring 40’s a couple of weeks ago and haven’t attacked it. Might drink it with some Jersey port or the Gourmand from the Secret Pack. Opened a 2003 Alcina Cellars San Giacomo Vineyard Pinot last night–tasted more black raspberries yesterday with a little sweet-tart. Today more black cherries, nestle-quik powder, the finish wasn’t as long, slightly floral, meaty, celeriac. Nicely balanced enjoyable wine, excellent with the breaded pork chops. Depending on what I decide to make for dinner, I was kind of in the mood for an Aussie Shiraz. I’ll have to check the cellar and see if I have one. May have to pick up that order from WL. And no it definitely won’t be Yellow Tail—never has , never will be.
October 5, 2008

CrazyManAndy
QOTD: It’s rather tragic that I watch very little sports. Otherwise, I’d probably be an even MORE zealous Vayniac!

Awesome follow-up to the last episode. We will definitely be getting some cheese from them in the near future!

Love the cheese episodes – need to do a bit more with pairing wine and cheese – different styles of cheeese with different styles of wine.

QOTD – Patriots will bounce back against the 49ers.

I bought 2 of these cheeses after the first EP (the Red Hawk was Sold Out_…..they were absolutely delicious. Thanks to Everett & Gary for doing these on WLTV….and also to Alan and Justin in the Gourmet Shop who are both tremendous.

GREAT EPISODE….and absolutely loved the baseball card stuff w/ Brandon.!!
October 5, 2008

Daniel
Here in the restaurant i work in at napa we carry a line of cow girl chesses I’m a huge fan and the red hawk has been a feature on our artisian cheese plate. It’s an awesome cheese. It’s also nice to get these cheese/beer/other breaks in the wine too, granted i do love win.

Nice job guys. I met Everett in the store after the Vaniac party last spring and we had a good conversation about cheese and olive oil – glad to see him back on the show, and getting some Vaniac love!

QOTD – I am watching this after almost all of the games, so my comment is moot. But, I do hope the Steelers and their 3rd string running back win tonight.

apj_bobswineguy
Delice de Bourgogne, Pyrenees plain cheese, tre signori goat milk cheese. This show made me purchase these cheeses. I know very little about cheese but since the earlier episode and the Spectator’s recent issue, I have been experimenting. Like WineWoman said, it was the close up that hooked me. Good Cowboy watching food (although I almost choked on it when Bengals cut lead to 24-22. )
October 5, 2008

Mike Nally
I need to spend more time with quality cheese. Hard to find in my area though. I wonder if this sort of thing can be found online at a fair price?
October 5, 2008

Robin C
We were just in San Francisco and we saw the Cowgirl cheese but decided against packing it in our luggage. Also, I’m not a gooey cheese person. We packed up 5 bottles of wine from Copain, Donatiello, and Sheldon Wines instead. We met Stuart Ake at Crushpad and had a very educational and fun time. You should have him on the show – he has a very different slant about wine tasting.
QOTD: We went to Strait (fusion) in San Francisco and had a Dr. Loosen Riesling and a Trimbach Gewurtztraminer with some very spicy food. We didn’t really drink much in Russian River, but we tasted Arista, Gary Farrell, Torres Estates, Porter House, and the above wines.
We had a couple of glasses at a couple of bars but I can’t remember the wineries any more.
October 5, 2008

Rick Johnson
Gary, I’m the home vintner, and I’m drinking whate is called poully fuisse but the box says Rouuso Blanc, anyway since we can’t buy good cheeze here in the hinterland, but we can make our own wine. This white has not been my best, I start drinking it befor it’s ready, but those of us who make wine at home, and there will only be a few, want your imput. Love to brinkg my wine onto your show.

I went ahead and had an Ile de France herbed brie and pared it with a Bogle Sauvignon Blanc. The cheese was good, and the Bogle was nicely acidic to cut through the creaminess. Still, I think my $2 Tisdale Chardonnay would have worked well too.

QOTD: Falcons 27, Packers 24

Chris Rufkahr
I want to answer the question you posed at first – what’s your favorite cheese. I’m from St. Louis so it’s gotta be PROVEL, baby!!! Slap that on some pizza in place of mozarella, and you’ve got “Soup on a Cracker” as we call it here (i.e. Imo’s). St. Louis is so crazy about provel cheese on pizza that the DiGiorno Pizza that is sold at the ball park (Busch Stadium) has provel instead of mozarella! LOL.

Another great episode!!!

BTW, since the Rams suck, I’ve decided to become a Jets fan!!! GO JETS!!!

Bears came out in salvation mode for chicago – that was nice.

I had 2005 L’Ecuyer de Couronneau from Bordeaux – talk about some sheep butt! at least when the bottle was fresh opened – after decanting the wine took on a whole bunch of great flavors and subtlety that was a lot of fun.

Last night we had open a Rioja Tempranillo – Baron de Barbon that was really fantastic with one of the most dynamic aromatic offerings I’ve ever enjoyed in an $11 bottle.

There is no stopping the PATS now that the AFC East is in BALANCE. Bills suck now as usual, and the Jets…well…you know…

GV – Show was great. I have been a few episodes behind the last few weeks. Love the cheese show, please don’t be shy about doing more it was very interesting.

Favorite Cheese: I don’t remember the name, but it was obnoxiously expensive, it tasted like creamy honey and lavender. REEEEEEdiculous…

Have a good one.

Burnt rubber in wine sucks Matt Lauer and if drinking white wine cold masks imperfections in wine what the hell do you think cheese fat is doing to the wine. And for the record Kahuna would have wiped you up in the baseball card business however I liked girls unlike you and Brandon who were dressing up like Spock and captain Kirk practicing the vulcan death grip with your pants down.

Watched the show and read through the comments. Couple things … #1 Go Jets. #2 The casual Friday idea that was posted was a good one. I get to visit your store every so often and every time I go in I get a big smile and lots of help. However, I’m sure there are a lot of people would like to meet the fam. You should have the cheese guys stop by and maybe a beer guy too to have a baseball card-reading, wine-tasting, cheese -smelling good time every so often. #3 I think Everett should never be allowed to “put a razor” to that beard. You could hide something in there it’s so fluffy. Wonderful.

First, quick pat on the back *pats self on back* for getting my fav Jasper Hill mentioned.

Second, Everett needs to make an appearance more often with his latest find for us to try (with our wine of course!).

Third, QOTD1: guess it’s a little late, but I bet…err, picked…Houston and Philly FTW.

Fourth, QOTD2: a friend just brought over a few bottles as a semi-housewarming (the GF just moved in). So we’ll be trying Castle Rock Petite Sirah Russian River, A to Z Riesling, and (almost sad about this one) Bitch Grenache (with a pink label and all!).

QOTD: no football info. But otherwise I’ve been drinking lots of good wine here! my favorite so far has been the 2006 Domaine St Antoine Sablet Cotes du Rhone Villages. Great wine- so complex for 5 euros!

QOTD: I’m too far behind to give a football projection, but I’ll be caught up soon! As for wine: Nerello Masclese and Lirac.

Awesome show! QOTD: We’re having a goat cheese from Wisconsin thats crazy expensive but kills it- its called Carr Valley Wisconsin Cave-Aged Cadona Goat. One of the best ever. Compliments of Farmstead in Providence, RI! Lock: Steelers win superbowl.

Good show even though I wouldnt be a fan of those cheeses. QOTD: Steelers stomp the Cardinals bye 14 points.
