I've had that Cahors before and I'm near positive you've had it on the show before Gary, I like it.

    Great show! Although kind of wish you did the sake show today since I’m having sushi with my girlfriend tonight. But I’ll tune in tomorrow so I’m ready for next sushi night.

    Can’t wait to check out the dessert wine. Sounds awesome!

    QOTD: Although I’m a fan of Stewie from the Family Guy and Bart from the Simpsons, I gotta go old school and say Woody Woodpecker…and not the politically correct, sweeter, milder version of Woody that I saw on cable recently and made me sick. I mean the original Woody, the one who liked to bust everyone’s chops.

    Good show Gary,
    i must apologize for asking you a wine question on your 120. (which more people should be watching).

    QOTD: this question is almost impossible…… Bender.

    But it so easily could have been Dr. Byron Orpheus or Brock Samson. OR The Monarch.

    Bugs is great, but I’ve got to give it to Wile E. Coyote for his sheer persistence in the face of numerous explosions, falls from great distances, collisons with trains, etc.

    Acme rules!

    Ewww my parents used to eat that cheese in the late 70’s and the smell of it always made me want to hurl. Haven’t tried it since then.
    QOTD: Pumpkin Puss (just for the name)

    Hey Gary:

    Good to hear that you have lots of crazy Canuck fans! Terrific show – love to hear about those terrific wines that are reasonably priced. DO MORE CHEESE; make it a regular segment.

    Hey Mott: work on the hand eye coordination a bit; get that swirl up to a big wave to see those great LEGS!

    hey what’s with the tease over the “95-100 pointer”??
    a 2005 bordeaux??

  • caleb

    The brown cheese has brought me out of Lurkerdom. My wife is from Norway and loves that stuff. If you like it Gary you should try the real thing – 100% goats milk.

    The reason it tastes like caramel is because it is. They boil the milk until the sugar caramelizes then they make it in to delicious brown blocks.

    QOTD – Brainy Smurf.

    QOTD: early years go to Wally Gator/Woody Woodpecker/Daffy Duck……..but the coolest of cool is hands down the Pink Panther……………..

    Speaking of sake, if you can get Haguro (Honjozo), little pricey but nothing pairs better with uni (sea urchin) or ama ebi (sweet shrimp), medium body, jasmine flower on the nose, serve chilled.

    Big ups to Mott! Could be ready for primetime!!!

    GJETOST !!! A great “Square Head” cheese.
    But NOW you’ve got to try another Norwegian cheese.
    Nokkelost; sprinkled with caraway seeds.
    FAB with 1997 Volpaia Balifico.
    But of course that’s just ‘my’ pallet!
