Gary, Great South African episode- I was rootin’ for it. Dude, your totally talking about sugar smacks! Corked? How the _ did you put a corked wine in your mouth? Iâ??ve smelled corked wines before (like you said, wet paper, cardboard, basement, etc.), and man I would never put them in my mouth- your brave! ICK!
QOTD: very lucky
To burritto: If your in the Finger Lakes region, go to Seneca Lake (has 53 wineries)- you can’t go wrong. Iâ??ve always had a good time on Seneca. I will actually be touring the east side of Seneca this Sunday. Although, Keuka Lake has a couple of good wineries that shouldn’t be missed like Bully Hill & Dr. Konstantin Frank.

H-Why
I guess that I need to add an aluminum bat to my palette training kit.
QOTD: We are extremely lucky to have the time to watch a great podcast. What is scary to me was how easy it seems that people are recovering from the VA Tech shooting. When Columbine happened, it felt like the whole country stopped for several days. This time it feels like we are starting to accept this insane tradgedy as commonplace. That is scary and humbling.

QOTD – Damned lucky. We live in the best country in the world and we have basically whatever we need and then some. We are truly blessed and fortunate and we should NEVER forget that.
Pinotage, eh? Something new to try. I had told myself that I was on a SIWBM, but then I went and bought some anyway. Now I really have to settle down, especially after forking over the remainder of Uncle Sam’s portion the other day. This will have to go on my wish list.

God ep, GV. I thought for sure you were thinking of Golden Grahams, until you mentioned the frog! This was maybe the third (?) corked wine on WLTV. One was when you had the winemaker as a guest, back in the early days and I seem to remember at least one more.
QOTD: Extremely lucky. Imagine being in a place where this type of thing, or worse, happened every day…..

great call from the comments above with the Sugar Smacks. I was watching this ep with my daughter and she called the smacks. Smacks were good but the left over milk had the smack dust which I didn’t like.
Great Episode. Now I need to try the Pinotage.
QOTD. We are the luckiest generation of humans ever. Hug your family now and everyday.

Another nice and informative show. You often speak of the “mid-palate” as an area where alot of taste profiling takes place. Is there a “fore” and “aft” palate that also is used in the profiling or is most of this taste at the mid palate area? I ask because sometimes we spit and sometimes we swallow. I’m just wondering if you can detect a finish if you don’t swallow or if the finish is the aft palate. Thanks again

I’m lucky to have good friends, a good job (though it’s not my dream job), a great girl friend, wine, family, and air in my lungs. God bless everyone affected by the tragedy yesterday.

Honey Smacks is the one with the cool hip hop 90s frog. Good show today, My QOTD (VT Massacre) “Is it becoming a trend to take the lives of innocent people to make up for a person’s own issues or are all these school shotings related to our society and the way we live?”
QOTD- “I am lucky for family, frends, and great times.”
Pinotage – Will any other red hybrids make a come up like Chambourcin and Chancellor? We know how well Vidal has done with Icewine.

Thanks for doing the Pinotage. Amazing, I ask for it in the comments here and I get it! “Ask, and you shall receive.” – Eric Wilson (Sublime fans, you should get this).
QOTD: I was born with incredibly supportive yet heavily (I mean this in a good way) critical parents combined with good genetics (Thanks Hashem!). They’ve made me what I am today and I’m lucky and thankful for it. And not to trivialize by any means this horific event, but we’re all so lucky when we are able to recognize how much of a tragedy this is while in other countries such as Iraq and Sudan these killings are happening almost daily.

QOD:
After I lived in Jamaica,
I am sure how lucky we are.
We have freedoms, choices and wealth
beyond ANY country anywhere.
We can do what we want, when we want and we
have a fabulous school system at our finger tips.
We all have the chance to study, learn and work hard
and enjoy the American Dream!

I bet the first wine tastes like your Jet’s spit bucket.
I love it when I come across people who have found their exact calling. There couldn’t be a better guy to do a vlog on wine. I mean, could Robert Parker do a better job — I don’t think so. Could Stephen Tanzer be as entertaining — no way. You just have the exact blend of personality, super taste buds, and way of articulating your tasting notes to make a great daily show. So, thanks!
QOTD: Seriously lucky. Gratitude is a wonderful thing.
