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

    Gary always happy to see you show the Walla Walla love. Its my favorite region as well. The past week you’ve brought on a Minervios which I thought no one knew about and then bringing on the Cahor today, big props. I think you have to move into Spain and do something like Bierza and the mencia grape.

    QOTD: Stan’s Dad in South Park. Hand’s down the funniest cartoon character of all time.

    I tried my first Cahors a couple of months ago & was totally blown away. The profile sounded very similar to the Montplaisir. So I’ve been knee deep into Cahors since. I found the Montplaisir on the site a couple of months ago but it was out & I see its out again. Getting more in?

    Hi Gary! Note that it says “ski”, as in “skiing”, not “sky”, on the cheese! Not that it matters.

    OK, so I see people are selling there Canadian city… Of course, here in Québec City, you could practice your french. Bring the wine though because sometimes a bottle can be up to 3 times the price that you sell it for… Incredible! Wine prices here pay for education and healthcare I think.
    QOTD: Tintin (maybe not very well know in the US)
