    All your fart and poop talk reminded me of the Jets, and whether you’ll be extending FS to the teams (if there’s more than one) that beat up on them this season. Or is that no longer sound business now that you’re at “Dancing With The Stars” viewership levels?

    QOTD – the ’99 L’ecole Syrah is what opened my eyes to WA. Still one of my favorites.

    Love from New England…

    QOTD – 1994 Woodward Canyon Dedication Series Cabernet Sauvignon

    However…There are three wineries on the up and coming that I feel will eventually deliver an even better experience. Just have to wait 10 more years to see if they develop in the bottle the same way as the WWC.

    RULO – Kick Ass Syrah at a mindblowingly reasonable price.

    STEVENS – Cabernet blends are the way to go (424 and XY)

    BOUDREAUX – Completely off the grid winery up in the mountains. His Cabernet Sauvignon will rival Quilceda Creek, Leonetti and all other chalengers in the not too distant future.

    267 – until barrel tasting party OR blending party for the top 5?

    Great ep. GV – been looking for some Washington Cab Sauv and Syrah to try and think I just found a few thanks to you!

    QOTD: I have been looking for something just like the 2004 Delille Doyenne Syrah.

  • Dan NYC

    Man, I have to go to the bathroom after watching this show. QOTD: 00′ L’ecole Cab from WWV. I wasn’t expecting much, then, my wife and I tasted it and WOW did it change my mind on washington state. Glad the L’ecole was featured today.

    I didn’t know wine could fart, did the fart bring the thunder? I know a few of mine do.

    Never had a Washington wine that I can recall. I just “migrated” to an Oregon wine (the Benton Hill Pinot Gris which I like) so Washington state should be next.

  • Dusty

    Gotta love any show that gives you a fart in a glass and the host goes back for a second whiff. QOTD: not any Washington wines come to mind. I guess I’m waiting for about 6 weeks till I fly out there with my girlfriend to tour. Besides the wines tasted, any suggestions for stops??

  • Withnail

    QOTD: I had a 1987 Cold Creek (Chat. Ste Michelle?) Cabernet Sauvignon
    on a date in a nice little Seattle restaurant in ’95 that was very
    memorable.
