I’ve tasted the toe, the heel, the inside sweaty laces…only thing is I can’t remember the name of the Puglia wine.

I like the one man-wine format. In fact, I like all formats!!

QOTD: Yes…Patriglione is probably my favorite…but the 99 over the 97. The 97 was a little too prune & raisin driven…

QOTD: I love wines from Puglia and they were actually some of the wines that got me into drinking wine in the first place. Castel Del Monte and Gravina have some sentimental value for me as I’ve been to both places, so I really enjoy giving them a try when I can find them.

I enjoy the variety of lengths of shows. I have noticed that some of the older episodes are a bit shorter. I hope that the show doesn’t go anywhere anytime soon. I once read a yankee’s blog and the guy had a child and that was the end of the blog.

qotd; i have not had a wine from puglia and seeing as though i am from a small town in MN i will probably not be able to find one (Minnesota has some lame wine laws that prevent shipping to our state.)

QOTD: Never had a wine from Puglia. Unfortunately we don’t get great distribution and retail of Italian wines.

Having a dinner party on Friday and was not sure what I was going to cook until this episode. So going to make my chicken parm with smoked mozz and serve this wine.

Awesome interaction with your fans Gary. I am constantly amazed that you put this much time and effort into us.

I have not tasted the hell, though more than once I have tasted the sock from the boot… But thats another story

I’m always for rockin’ the boat, and will be highly anticipating the marathon shows!!! The more wines the merrier!

QOTD: It’s uncanny; I just opened my first Puglia wine this afternoon, an inexpensive and acidic red to go with some left over pizza and my homemade sauce (the pizza needed more of it!).

NO heels but maybe some toes.

You might try doing short format with a guest?

Puglia is on my radar now.

QOTD: Only one, and I couldn’t tell you which. My daughter’s father-in-law is from Puglia, and they have a few very old bottles of red vino around. They don’t drink wine much, but are just keeping it as a keepsake, investment maybe, don’t know. But the labels are very uninformative, primitivo-like. Not IGT… The wine was not memorable.

Will eventually try the Bogle PS, but when I can splurge – it’s $20 in British Columbia! So normally a pazzzz, but just for curiosity/standards testing.

GOOOOO CARDS!!!! I’m off to Phoenix next week, and will have to settle for watching the Coyotes.

I’m a huge fan of Puglia. The A-mano Primitivo 2001 got me seriously into wine. The metallic base it had and the way it transformed really intrigued me. (I wasn’t much of a fan of the 2003, haven’t tried the latest vintage yet.)

I had the Neprica this fall (not sure what vintage) and thought it was pretty unimpressive. Don’t remember what I didn’t like about it, but it was definitely something I wasn’t interested in buying another bottle of. I wasn’t a big fan of the 2006 Botromagno Primitivo either, which I think you guys sent out an email about.

The 2005 Felline Primitivo di Manduria was awesome, I would definitely buy more of that if you guys get it back in.

The best I’ve ever had, was the 2004 Cantine del Colle Primitivo Falco Grillaio. You need to track down this wine and start carrying it!

I like the idea of the different formats. It will be interesting to see what people like more. Also, meatballs are all about having enough breadcrumbs, parsley, and Romano.

Good show. I am sipping the Bogel Petite Sirah while I watch this one. It was $11 in Washington.
