the Cap't Crunch syndrome? — we call it “pallet abrasion” I think you should too

Good so far, Brian is comming off as a very “regular” wine geek.

QOTD: Sublime

I love it….”Drink the Damn Wine!”

I miss my old 8-Track, had a lot of hendrix, joplin, jackson 5, and Allman Bros…

Great little diatribe Brian…the pragmatic and rational response, to the silliness that is H.R. 5034.
BurroBoy

Brian, here's a link to David Honig's analysis of H.R. 5034 at the Palate Press.

also, you gotta start eating fruits and vegetables, if you think you are going to make it to a healthy age 80 man!

Tupac got big after death

Good start to the show – very interesting winemaker. Maybe it's because I, too, am an engineer, but I get what he's talking about. On the other hand, how can he not like fruits and vegetables? I'm appalled by that fact. Maybe not appalled, but I'm certainly shocked.

Brian is an awesome guy,met him here in Miami this year.He had the 04 Gary's Vineyard with him and it was phenomenol.

QOTD: Nick Drake's music broke out after his death

Nice guy. First guest that talked more than Gary.

Gary,
You sent out an email that I haven't commented in a long time. Well here I am. I do like Brian's wines and I think he is a great guy. But as far as the terroir thing, what about Ken Wright out of Oregon. California pinot noir winemakers chased the Barossa Valley craze.

Stop working on the ” ” just go with it.

QOTD1: Elvis, pretty big during life, enormous after death.
BobWied

OK, I'll admit it, I'm an engineer. However, I really enjoyed Brian's insights, honesty, and views on the process of making and marketing wines. Looking forward to episode 2.
