    Gary.. Ok I live in Pittsburgh (moved from NJ) and I think
    the Jets are a much better team than the Steelers. Too much Steeler hype!!
    The wine stores here (State) are terrible…Not like WL.. I have
    decided to make WL my destination wine store !! And what a drive
    that is.
    QOTD: Medium, and CAB, No, not desert wine, not even an ICE wine!!

    In Germany, lots of people drink riesling with red meat – always thought they did it because that’s all they have.

    Steak = NY strip, medium well, grilled with garlic-pepper-salt, smothered in Peter Luger’s steak sauce.

    QOTD: Medium rare (of course!)

  • Sangio

    Great episode, the late harvest riesling idea is why we watch the show.

    QOTD – Steak cooked on my grill, medium rare with Montreal Steak Seasoning. Fresh off the grill and onto the plate while it is still sizzling. A good group of friends and family to enjoy. The only thing that could improve this would be an Imperial bottle of Silver Oak, GV your invited.

    Thanks and a have a happy holiday.

    QOTD-Smack it in the Ass and run it through the fire! The rarer the better. Unless its a Ribeye. MR melts the fat and brings out more juices and flavors. I’ve actually had a great Auslese with some steak a while back. I thought the sweetness was a great contrast with the steak seasoning. It left my mouth watering almost to the point of drooling! Good things, Good things…

    QotD: I like my steak medium-well. It’s not so much the actual doneness of the meat, it’s just that I like it when the outside of it gets crispy. If I had my druthers and wanted to be a dork about it I’d order steaks seared/medium rare.

    FYI it’s my birthday today so you have to give me the Silver Oak. 😛 *hopes for the FIX*

    Excellent show – thanks for showing that you don’t HAVE to have a red wine with your steak!

    I love my meat medium rare, i think its more juicy and better tasting.

    I guess, we all have our own wine/meat combo. i really like Albarino with my meat.

    Gary… Stop wine-ingggggggggg about responses to give aways!!

    I’d bet if you challenged everyone to leave no response, to the question of the day; it wouldn’t work.

    We like our steak hot off the grill,salt & pepper, medium rare. No other meat is better than a great steak!

    Gary…you blew me away with the Riesling dessert wine paired with the steak. Wow, as a lover of both things, I have to try that!

    QOTD: I love a medium rare KC Strip or Filet, grilled of course. Usually with a Bordeaux or Meritage….sometimes with a Shiraz/Viognier like Innocent Bystander…but now…who knows…gotta try the dessert wine thing!

    QOTD: Rare to medium rare. Depends on how good the steak is to begin with.

    As a bengals fan, I was hoping for Darrell Revis to fall to the bengals last year. Clearly did not happen and we had to settle for Leon Hall. Not bad, but Revis is awesome.

  • Saubrey

    Mad props to donating companies. Mad hate to the lurkers! You make the GV cry!
    A comment doesn’t have to be prophetic, just drop some love if you watch the episode!

    QOTD: Medium-rare, sometimes rare if my wife isn’t around to get grossed out.
