What does the number on the whiteboard mean?

did a homemade Chenin Blanc/Viogner blend- one of the most unusual batches- great nose almost honey and floral then it smacks the crap out of you like a dry high alcohol dessert wine- Some people love and some hate it- I happen to hate it- but I have not had it while eating – So Thanks to GV I will now try it with some food-

QOTD……..moist. I had to do it, sorry. Now you can stop nagging me about the lurking, happy?

Great cork toss!!!

QOD – makes me feel great and anxious because I want it to last and last and last…..:)

As far as the Sam Zen comment – jury might still be out, it is hard to see the shirt itself and the design on the website, you should allow the picture to be blown up…..also, a couple colors other than black would be nice….but I am getting picky!

Thanks,

Grasshopper

flavasauce out of the box (no pun intended) with a BANG (again…no pun intended)!!! 😀

When I drink a nice bottle of wine it makes me want to drink another nice bottle of wine, probably followed by another, and ect.

alright 33rd

QOTD: say hey honey taste this one.

Great episode.

Long time lurker, first time poster!

QOTD …makes me wish I would have purchased more of it to share with friends.

Keep up the great work!

Agree with your call on South African Chenin Blanc — it’s definitely worth watching. You might add for anyone new to SA CBs that sometimes they are labeled “Steen,” the Afrikaans word for Chenin Blanc…..

QOTD: Thirsty as hell.

so I am a lerker what are you gonna do about it

249 days till the trip to Cali with Gary if you win the contest!!

QOTD: When I drink a great bottle of wine, it makes me go find out who the distributor is.

Long time lurker as well and 1st time poster. keep up the good work!

Gary:

I am a very very long time lurker. I have lurked when you didn’t have the TV show or a maybe even a website site. I used to go to the GREASE MONKEY and walk over to the old store buy and lurk. Its kinda funny but no matter how thing change ( your technology ), I’m still doing the same thing. I get a kick and sometimes a chuckle from your whacky descriptions of the nose and taste of the wines on WLTV.

Drinking a great bottle of wine…makes me happy I don’t smoke.
More money for great wine…and my palate is clear!

QOD:……smile…….

Great episode. The NY Times critic blogged about this grape just a little while back. Some of these wines were mentioned in the comments. The two blogs are great companions.

QOTD: … blissful. (But it has to be a really good bottle)

How can it be?
I’m not a sports nut – don’t know nothin’ ’bout football.
I’m not an oenophile – don’t know nothin’ ’bout wine.
And yet — and yet —
I’m becoming a VAYNIAC!!
========================
Good cork toss!
When I drink a nice bottle of wine, it makes me: lovey-cuddly-kissypoo-sexy-goofy.
Hell, one glass does the same thing! Can’t take me anywhere! Embarrassing — that’s why I hardly ever drink!
========================
There. I’m no longer a lurker.
Now will you answer the “Email Gary” message I sent yesterday?

I’ve had the Bonny Doon before. I’m definitely looking forward to trying some of the others. Great episode. Fantastic cork toss, and SS Chris, your welcoming of Flavasauce has me cracking up over here. See you at Zupko’s tonight?

QOTD: …makes me worry free. I can pretty much forget about everything else during those moments.

QOD: smile, proportional to the quality of the wine

QOTD ………… smarter because every time I drink wine I learn something.
OK, that was too geeky.

QOTD ……….. smile. Oh, crap. Damn you, Hugh.

QOTD ……… happy.

KAHUNA – I’ve got some made in a very (VERY) sweet dessert style – vintage 1970. Who knows what’s in the bottle but whatever it is, it hasn’t turned funny colors!! May have to drink it one of these days.

Sorry, I forgot, got caught up in the QOTD.

Gary, excellent show. I love it when you bring out a varietal that isn’t known as well as it should be by enough people.
