    WOTD- Apartheid.. I have always enjoyed Pinotage. I’ve had a few stinkers, however for the most part for the price I thought they have always delivered, I am fond of the Westerland which runs around 11 bucks. The Kanonkop (more pricey) is also tasty.. It’s true as I always enjoyed them tremendously my friend always said they taste like “dirty feet.” One I would avoid would be the Serengheti .. It’s sweet!? common’ this suck big time.. anyhow.. Try some out.. they deliver.

    Great show GV. I am always looking for something new and exciting and not too expensive and will definitely be running out to try some Pinotage.

    Have you ever considered doing a coffee tasting? I would be interested to see how your palate reacts to various gourmet coffees like Kona or Jamacia Blue Mountain…

    QOTD… Dave Matthews

    Would have been number 1 but the comment link wasn’t up! That sucks! I was robbed!

    ok, ok… interesting show. By the way, it is spelled “pinotage”, not “pintoage”!

    All of the pinotages I have had (hmmmm about two of them) have sucked, so it is good to hear there are some interesting ones out there.

    QOTD – I think of apartheit and Nelson Mandela when I think of South Africa. Now, however, I will think of banana peel wrapped pennies in the microwave. How obscure!

    Peas….. T

    I’m pretty sure that’s not how you pronounce pinotage. Does anyone know the right way to say it?
