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

  • I’ve not had a Cahor before :'(

    I have experienced Tannah (tan-na-aaaaaah!!!) – from Pirramimma – Please Gary check out that winery they even do Petit Verdot (a wine I now can’t get out of my head been disappointed so far)- I’ll send you the bottles if you’d like!!).

    Very much digging this episode, not sure I’m a fan of trying to search for a non-Aussie wine down here though :, time to call the mate network and see who can hook me up w/ who :P.

    I have had ONE Cahors before, and it was thanks to the G-man after watching the Cahors episode. My palate has become accordingly expanded thanks to that suggestion. Kudos and thanks again.

    The cheese–the “gjet” is pronounced as “yet”–is typically eaten in the morning for breakfast on a slice of bread. Trust me, I eat it every day at my house in Norway. ๐Ÿ™‚

    I love Cahors. I spoiled myself with Cahors, Bandol, Faugeres, Corbieres, and all those other southwestern France goodies when I lived in France for a year.

    Nice show. I roadtripped (from Spain) up to Bordeaux last summer and was thinking about Burgundy for my next trip, but now Cahors is sounding quite appealing. GV, Iร‚ยดm such a sucker for you…

    I love that cartoon character so much, it was my first tattoo. Some years later Boneless Chicken from Cow and Chicken and the Tazmanian Devil from the Looney Toons followed. But Weasel is my all time favourite.

    Mott gave the weakest swirl I have ever seen. So funny. I was almost juggling the glass.

    QOTD: Maybe Tom from Tom&Jerry Tazmanian Devil? Scooby Doo? Spider-man! Too many to choose from!! I curse you Gary Vaynerchuk!

    Will have to try the Cahors since I’m such a big fan of Port! I’m curious to see how they compare.

    QOTD: Daffy Duck, and specifically, the cartoon where he and Bugs Bunny argue about Duck/Rabbit season.

    Gary, your sniffy-sniffs are actually a deep inhale but Mott actually does a sniffy-sniff two times in this episode. Don’t take this the wrong way, he sniffs like a puppy (sounds better than dog, right?). If the Cowboys win, may I have free shipping?

    I know I have had Cahors before, just can’t remember much about it. Have to explore again! I really enjoy Bandol and the Cambiata Tannat (if that is in the style of its native region) was splendid. Must try more Tannat and Tannat blends.
