Highlight of the show is the $100 bet with Mott that the Oak Monster makes an appearance. Unsurprisingly Mott declines

    I thought Bogle was a bad word?

    The Eagles just won’t do it, will they

  • Mr.Ambassador

    Go Bogle Go.

    Official prediction for the Superbowl is the Steelers – they’ve proven they already have the officials on their side so why wouldn’t they win? Cardinals better hope Bill Leavy’s officiating team isn’t making a return appearance or it’ll be like Superbowl XL Seahawks-Steelers all over again…

    Gary: Wow. Your most striking statement on the petite sirah video was when you were talking about some taste “on the back end of the mid-palate” in the D. Bruce wine. Dude, I don’t even know if I have found the mid-palate yet at all when I taste vino, and here you are talking about the back end of it. So I think you’re in another realm from me, as far as “pal” sophistication, but I still like to listen. Best of luck in 09 with the baby. She’ll change your life. Or he will. Go Steelers. Or, the wife think’s Warner’s cute, so either way, it’s cool.

    Hey Gary, Another Great show today…. Petite Sirah or Durif as it known is here in Australia is another big red that Australia produces, its not produced on the same volumes as Shiraz, but the style is very similar. Very concentrated, dark plum, full bodied and many times is over oaked. The Goulburn Valley, in the northern part of Victoria produces some of the best Durif in the country.

    Go Cardinals……I have a vested interest in the Cardinals, as their punter is an Australian and was the former punter for the NY Jets..

    We need a Petite Sirah week, Bogle is ok but there are many great ones and it seems the Vaner Nation has embraced this variety so lets see some serious tasting of my favorite grape. Go Cards! who would have thought it.

    Nice show, thanks Gary.

    I predict,,,that I won’t know the outcome of the Super Bowl, unless someone tells me.

    I would rater watch The Thunder Show than watch the super bowl.

    Real men, and women, watch The Thunder Show!

    (Good thing we don’t comment on each others comments on this page, that one would be cause for much ado about nothing. Ha ha)

    That was supposed to be “I’d RATHER watch The Thunder Show than the super
    bowl”.

    New prediction: The Jets have it in the bag!

    Petite Sirah – love it. And I definitely think Bogle does a great job with it. But is you want Real Petite Sirah IMO – Fess Parker!! It’s got dirt in it, DIRT I tell you – my friends call it my barnyard wine. Good show and love the series, thanks.

    Great Petite Sirah show, tough guy. Bogle taking the title? I’m dumbfounded. Lots of other great Petite Sirah / Durif out there as well…

    QOTD: Cards yes, Ravens? Maybe a Cards-Steelers showdown instead. Maybe.

    GV,
    I wish you would have re-tasted the Bogle after the Lolonis. I find that retrying a wine that you like from early in a tasting can be very interesting. You know that the palate changes, even in a short tasting session. I trust you know your palate, but if you haven’t used this technique, give it a whirl.

    Intersting show with the Petite Sirah, can’t believe the Bogle scored so high. I like the idea you have of bringing in more wines that you can find easily. And by the way, were you wearing the same shirt in back-to-back episodes??

    QOTD: That was my prediction as well, however I never expected the Cards to really win it. Interesting. That Bogle also sounds interesting, and for only 9 bones!

    Interesting show. I kind of like the “upset special” when it occurs.

    QOTD: Well, since I already know who won the Conference Championships, I’ll give you my Superbowl score:

    Steelers 34
    Cardinals 30

    I live in NZ we are more into Rugby, and have no idea about superbowl, have drunk alot of beer at a number of superbowl parties in Australia and London.

    I love these shows when there is an upset and top wines don’t pull through, you must do more. I think hearing the bad news is more entertaining than hearing the good news about a wine.

    How about a show about Petit Verdot, see if you can get any from Victoria, Australia in the northern regions.

    Gary, what is your opinion on supermarket wine? Check out this article a wine writer in Nz wrote about supermarket wine.

    I have had all four of those wines as I am a big fan of Petit Sirah and the David Bruce in most years would win this but my favorites are Rosenblum and Turley. Some years the Bogle is very hot but usually a good buy.
    I already know so my prediction would be Cards Steelers. Great guess after the fact.

    Well, since I am typing this on the Monday before SB my prediction is pretty biased.

    Have been working like a fool, and not so much time to enjoy the epidsodes on a timely basis.

    Good episode, have a PS to try that I received for Christmas and will be looking for the Bogle at my store.

    Thank you for you knowledge and expertise.
