  • Got the Vlog vote in and you’re killing the competition, so far. Looks like less than 1% of the precincts votes are in.

    Thanks for the Larmande tip.

    Love the ’01s for value.

    Wow, finally watching an episode the day it comes on . . . its been a while for me!

    QOTD: Depends on the mood. When I want something sweet – grapes. When I want something salty – sourdough pretzels. When I want something comforting – cheese.

    I’ve left the right bank behind in the last few vintages so this is a good excuse to seek out some of those. Thanks for the kick in the ass.
    QOTD – PB&J on toast….boring I know but it rocks!

    Thanks for the tips G-Man on the lesser known Saint Emilions, always good info to have. Have you ever tried Havens Bourriquot? I had the 2000 recently, and it is full on Saint Emilion style.

    QOTD: Cape Cod Dark Russet chips, or Meredith.

    Thanks for another Bordeaux ep and thanks for teaching me more about this region. As a wine newbie it is one of the most intimidating because of all the big french words. You also don’t know what is in the bottle unless you know what is grown in St Emilion, St Georges etc.

    Curious episode. A bit of a mystery. Strangely simple.
    What’s on your mind, Gary?

    G-Man-
    first off, nice ep. i really like the st. emilion wines and find that at comparable prices they are ready sooner than the left bank bordeauxs. so i like buying them at wine shops or off lists more than the left bank guys. although their classification is not as reliable as the 1855 one in my opinion.

    QOD1: first off tell eric great call on the spot under pressure for full metal jacket. the first half of that movie is the best 45 minutes of any movie i have ever seen. after that, it kind of falls apart. I would add Saving Private Ryan to that list.

    QOD2: dried fruit (blackberries, cherries, cranberries, apricots, blueberries, and strawberries) and nuts (almonds, m and ms, walnuts, pistachio). I like making my own blends instead of buying the ones the markets have. that way i don’t need to remove any of the stuff i don’t like.

    QOTD: popcorn. I’ll even eat it with a glass of merlot. Two things I love. . . so they don’t taste too great together.

    QOTD: Been eating Jelly Belly jelly beans lately as a cheap way to try to work on my wine palate. It’s a great way to try to pick out odd flavors and train yourself to analyze what your mouth is telling you, especially when you just grab 3 random beans and pop ’em in your mouth.
