    Nice show – I normally shy away from younger Cahors since the one’s I’ve had had such big tannins that they need at least five years to come together, but I’m intrigued to hear about the 06 Gaudou that is so floral already. I’ll keep an eye out.

    Nice episode Gary, I love Malbec and want to try more.

    QOTD: Simon & Garfunkel are way before my time, but I think of curly hair, their nice voices (I guess the song “Sound of Silence”??) and the mom from “Almost Famous,” when she bitches about how those guys look stoned on their album covers, hahahha.
