    QOTD: no cheese; not familiar with Aquaman.

  • Yo…yo…yo…GV….I have tasted a lot of wines from the LONE STAR STATE, and have yet to be impressed…I think they are making good strides in their technique, but not up to snuff in my book! Anyways…CHEESE all the WAY!!! Big fat….angus…BURGER….medium RARE….topped….with GARGONZOLA!!!! Bruhaha!! Top it off with a little Andrew Murray SYRAH…baddaboom!! Aqua..man…I dig!

    As for the Barolo!! Being italian…I feel proud that we can still go the rounds like Rockie when he faced the Russian DRAGO and just kept taking the hits and still stood his ground!! BRAVO ITALIANO!! Vive VINO ITALIA Sempre!!

  • Alex

    QOTD: As much as I like cheese on a burger, I am also Lactose intolerant. Second QOTD: Aquaman…. does he even have his own movie/cartoon/anything decent?

    Also in FFL: i picked up the Wash D solely on the fact that they are playing the Jets this week.

  • QOTD: cheese: definitely! Aquaman: yes.

    Who made the new Vaynerglass???

    Thanks for the extra segment. I’m sorry to say that I killed a young Brunello last week by decanting it for far too long. The massive tannins were silky at the start, but seemed to be hiding most of the fruit and spice, so despite the fact that it was delicious with cheese, I decanted until all I had was bitter mess. Of course, the very same approach has worked magic on other young monsters. I guess it’s just hard to tell sometimes.

    Texas Wines? Maybe one day I’ll be able to get them over here, hopefully by then they’ll have upped their game a bit (or at least dropped the prices?). Talking of games, shame about the Jets losing in OT today – did I ever tell you I used to be a Redskins supporter half a lifetime ago?

    QOTD – Cheese. QOTD2 – No, but only ‘cos I don’t really know him.

    Nice surprise finish with the Barolo – I should really try some….

  • Sitting here with the Seahawks Browns game on as Seattle roles down the field for a game winning score while watching WLTV…and just noticed the Jets loss in overtime! Sorry man, bad break. (Note: Never would have even noticed the Jets score before if it wasn’t for the passion of GVNC!)
