QOTD: I’d have to say Gorgonzola, when it’s really blue and ripe…

bleu cheeses!!
but that cheese looks delicious, and that sauternes looks even better!!
alright!

Alpine cheese with lighter wines and red rind soft cheese with the dark coloured stuff.

The most important thing: It has to be organic cheese. Try it. You’ll never eat that artificial gunge again.

QOTD: Even though I am a U of O Duck alum, I have to admit the Natural Cougar Gold cheese from WSU in Pullman is very good cheese … just as tasty, though less salty, is the Jarlsberg cheese I let age in the back of my fridge for a year or two …. mmmmm mmmmmm gooooood !

Parmigiana-Reggiano is an incomparable cheese. It is not only my favorite cheese, it is my favorite food.

QOTD: St. Agur. And some LBV Port.

Great episode as usual.
QOTD: Valascas

Question of the Day Answer:

Being from Wisconsin, it is difficult to narrow down favorite types of cheese. I guess I will have to go with the following:

Edam
Brie
Provolone
Mozzarella

Great episode.
QOTD: A nice smoked Gouda.

Thank you for the Luberon red, I love their terroir and can’t wait to try the “loco”. I think I was salivating at your Sautern and goat chs descriptions, great job. I’m staring to have a pretty good collection of sauterns but I’m loathe to try them til they’ve turned a deep honeyed color. At least that is what I’ve been told to do. I don’t want to date any of those “14 year olds”.
I’m freaking cause my a/c unit is out and now my 200 btl cellar is over 70 degrees. I hope that a/c fixer dude shows soon or I may have to drink them all, now.

QotD: I’m like Bubba when it comes to cheese… I like it all… goat cheese, NY cheddar, Vermont cheddar, sharp cheddar, goat cheese with peppercorn, pecorino, feta cheese, parmasian cheese, ricotta cheese, eggs with cheese, mac and cheese, cheese and grits casserole, muenster cheese, provolone cheese, swiss cheese…

Hey Gary longtime lurker.
Rochefort is my favorite cheese.
Going to go find the ’05 Guillaume and try that. I love the wines from Southern France and Spain. I especially enjoy when you cover those areas. How about a Port show one of these days?
Thanks

QTOD……. cheese??? dunno…. hard, soft, medium…… whatever. hate goat though….. too strong.

Guys, don’t listen to GV when it comes to CA Cabs, he is just a girly man who is affraid of the Oak Monster. Viva Sebastiani!!! I never had a Sebastiani that wasn’t a great value, like I said many times before, you don’t drink and much less judge CA Cabs that are that young, shame on you GV!

QOTD: Two year old aged Manchego or Roquefort with the company of a 5/6 Puttonyos Tokaji Aszú, or better Tokaji Essencia, anything else is wasting life away.

Nice episode – hope I can find a couple of those around here.

QotD: Not a huge cheese geek, but you’ve got to love the feta. Also, though probably not for cheese purists, I’m a big fan of cheese with jalapenos (i.e. monterey jack) and recent had an amazing havarti with dill.

Wow found a couple of QPR gems the last couple of days. THanks GV!

QOTD: Roaring 40’s Blue

I have watched your show for the first time today….June 22, 800am and enjoyed it. You appear irreverant but seem knowledgable. I am 50, don’t look it, and hang with much younger people so my attitude is ecclectic. I love wine….am not knowledgable about it..but am an artist and therefore believe I have some natural sensitivity to recognizing greatness. I am excited about the Chateau Raymond Lafon…..higher then I spend on wine…but I will give it a go…after all I am all about the greatness….. . I don’t like cheap wine….I am not about quantity over quality….I can’t drink alot …so I want every glass to count. Hope to see more of you shows…and I love Gewirztriminer… Are there any great ones? Lisa

oops used whole name last time…am learning…old school and all that.

Can’t wait to try the Guillaume. Great idea for a show. I am glad to see that cheese has made it’s way back onto the show. I think you should just start poppin’ Lipitor and have a minmum of one cheese per day. QOTD:
Saint Marcellin, nice and creamy with some good stank.

Favorite cheese:
Shelburne Farms Two-Year Cheddar from Shelburne, VT. The 2 year products are sold out now but it should be available again in August. I grew up down the street and they are doing great things.

I also have a weakness for The Laughing Cow brand Wedges (Original Creamy Swiss)

looks like an oak monster on the sebastiani label….austrian bergkäse, 1 yr. aged, from the bodensee region

Great show G, thanks for your insight on the world of wine. Still scared of the oak MONSTER…

QOTD—– Just a good old cheddar for me.

QOTD –> brie is my kinda cheese

and as always great ef’in show
