GREAT

QOTD: About 5 or 6. I never get to have as much fun as my wife does when it comes to wine tasting. She is like the Energizer Bunny, she keeps going and going and going………

QOTD: Tasted over 130 from 1PM to 6PM, went to a dinner with all the vendors, drank wine there, then to Clark Street brew pub and downed a couple hand pumped pale ales…… and to bed by midnight…. and I’m just some rookie dental hack! But I am a Packer fan,, and you a lowely Jet fan…. go figure, punk! 😉

Go home and rest those tastebuds, GaryV! 🙂

QOTD: I’ve never tasted more than. . . oh, 30 wines in one day. If the tastings are spread out over several hours, and I have water/bread/crackers, I’m okay. If they’re too close together, especially if they’re all heavy reds, then I’m only good for about a dozen before my tongue starts to feel shredded.

Way to go bro, a down & real show! QOTD; Don’t know …

QOTD: Generally don’t sniffy sniff taste and dump. Usually after the first bottle I’m loosing a grip on things. 140 is way too much of anything. Somewhere in there you made friends with the oak monster and now look at you, you tired, poor wine merchant. Get some sleep.

130???? Holy crap dude…that is awesome, maybe even alittle scary but awesome nontheless. The most I have tried is 20 and my palate was getting a little tired, maybe it had to do with us drinking an entire bottle of wine before the tasting….

Keep on rocking man…

Always a great episode on WLTV even when you are tired. Thanks for the episode today.
QOTD- probably about 6 or 7 only because that is the most I have tatsed in one night, I did notice that my pallet became sharper with each additional wine. Although not using a spit bucket limited how much I could taste, I guess that is why I am an amatuer.

GV,
You are a trooper. Thanks for turning us on to some good wine, in spite of severe palate fatigue.
QOTD: Haven’t yet had more than 10 wines at one sitting, so I have not yet “hit the wall” of my palate. Would like to try some day, though.

QOTD – I find that after about 40 wines my palate really becomes worn out, especially if I have been tasting a lot of passes in that bunch.

Good show, I always look for Bordeaux bargains, amazing how many high quality wines are there, if we could just find out about them.

qotd: I don’t know. Cute baby in the BG. Totally upstaged you and that is pretty amazing.

Thanks for doing the show even thourgh you are tired. We appreciate you. The Soujourn sounds heavenly from your description. The bordeaux sounded like a real value. Hope we run into those sometime.

QOTD: Don’t know that I’ve ever reached that point. After tasting about 7 wines without spitting them out, I become a lot less discriminating, for sure.

QOTD: I’ve never tasted more than 6 or 7 wines in one sitting, so I’ve never really gotten to test out the limits of my palate.

Sixty-eight is all I can handle.

130 Wines!!!! Man I am good for about 10-20 and then after that it is history. Thanks for taking one for the team (for some reason that seems negative, but I would consider 130 wines great). Get some rest and it was nice to see a slight change of pace from the usual. Does not mean you should change all the time though.

hello gary im super loopy too!

Wow I still haven’t been able to afford to taste more than one at a time so I have no clue! 🙂

Thanks Gary for all of the hard work! 140 wines is just amazing. Go brush your teeth like 100000 times and get some rest….
