Please do the Mott shirts … I’ll definitely buy some. I do enjoy Merlot on occasion, but have not had any in awhile. (Just because I’ve been trying NEW things).

QOTD: Just finished dinner (short rib stew) with a nice 2002 Eckert Estate Malbec. Good combo.

Tonight? Early prep for Christmas dinner, Mexican…Tamales, Crock beans, chorizo, good stuff.

I’m drinking a Domaine Drouhin Laurene pinot noir from Oregon, but thinking about the 2000 bricco rocche barolo that’s waiting to be opened. Anyone in L.A. want to get together? 😉

QOTD:
CBC has streaming video of the National at Port Hawkesbury, N.S.
(curling) on their web site…it is the only sport I am interested in so am watching that tonight and tomorrow, when I am free.

Drinking bourbon, and watching you tube!

QOTD: Laundry.

I love Merlot, done right, Columbia Crest Grand Estates comes to mind as a wine that gets mehed a lot because of its price. But, tasted blind, it outperfoms wines with much higher pedigree. I still prefer right bank merlot based wines to most other efforts.

QOTD: Catching up on back episodes of the Thunder Show. Enjoying a Columbia Crest Walter Core Private Reserve 2000 (I think that it would be GV 90+). Keep the faith, I love the everyman aspect of your show.

Watching WL on my iPhone makes sitting in traffic in the Lincoln Tunnel suck a little less. Keep up the great work.

Yet another vote for “where was Washington??” Alternatively, you could have turned just to the north and let Long Island Merlot represent.

QOTD: Watching your show, drinking cheap Cava rose and eating fast food. How depressing is that?

You make a “Mott, Link it Up” t-shirt and I’m buying one. I went out to dinner tonight, had a crappy Chianti, and I’m home getting ready to get in bed and read a book. Keep it real.

Just chilling with the wife…we’re pooched!

QOTD: Surfing the web, drinking some wine and wrapping presents.

QOTD – just got home from a very full day taking the family Christmas shopping for about 9 &1/2 hours, watched the thunder show with a well deserved cup of coffee and it’s off to bed so I can get up and go to work tomorrow.

Made spaghetti, watched the T Show, now heading out to the Grapevine, a local bar.

Too bad only one of the Merlot’s “brought the thunder.” When I first started drinking wine about 6 or 7 years ago, Merlot was what got me into wine, so I never like to hear people bash it.

QOTD: Hanging out with my wife & playing with my puppy.

I’d buy a ‘Link it up, Mott’ T-shirt; sounds coolâ?¦

QOTD: I’m watching WLTV, kicked-back and happy that work is done for the year!

I’m a fan of the Clarendon Hills Merlot…great wine overall.

QOTD: Worked until 7, got home, opened a 2004 J.M. Billiot Montagny 1er Cru and had it with some roasted chicken, Glass of LBV Port and Roquefort for dessert…watched some TV with my girlfriend, watched the Thundershow, a little wine reading then off to sleep.

Enjoyed the show!

QOTD: About to wrap a few more of my daughters presents. Took a trip to Best Buy and got a PSP game (Disgaea) plus some kind of flight controlled bug?!.

I like the idea of the new shirt. Go for it, GV!

QOTD: Serching for “Mott, link it up” T-shirts futures order page.

By the way, I’m oldfahion and I still like merlot if I’m not in love with it.

QOTD: Sipping a 2006 Alban Rousanne, not too bad….

🙂 Got to comment on your “sheep” statement and Merlot…….

FOR HEY-ZEUS Hing KRIST….. Give us a break will ya??!!! You’ve got us going in 20 different directions,,, tasting all these great DIFFERENT wines.. and then you bust our balls for not buying enough Merlot!!! (down 42%) Come on already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:-)

QOTD
The wife is working the night shift, the kids and will have dinner, watch college hoops (Gonzaga and WSU) and go to bed.

Nice show GV! I hate to break it to you, but everybody is screaming about 2005 Bordeaux.

Q: Work, packing and WLTV.

Glad you mentioned alternative decanting methods. I have been decanting in my coffee press. Looking forward to the christmas pack show…

Tonight searching real estate ads online and listening to the planes fly over.

Thanks for the show GV.

QOTD — Trying to determine who gets what wine as a xmas gift.

Unpacked my Christmas pack…..by the way, DHL sucks!!!!!! My delivery (or lack thereof) was a bad experience.
