Great show. My “house wine” changes pretty frequently based on various things but, right now, the red is St. Francis Claret 2002 and the white is Columbia Crest Grand Estates Chard. 2005.

Hell yeah, Gary, come down to the Raleigh-Durham area! I’ve really been liking the Pillar Box White for an “everyday” white.

QOTD: 2004 Altos de Luzon (Jumilla)

P.S. to Spyder47 – I promise there are so many other WA wines that bring so much more thunder than Columbia Crest!!! come see us at AmericanWinery.com and you will see!!! Sorry to bag on CC, but bigger is not ALWAYS better.

Gary tries to rep hard for the dubs (that’s code for Walla Walla), but it’s all talk, no follow through.

Come to this town, there’s great wineries littered throughout the downtown area, not to mention the AmericanWinery.com offices, lots of fun places, great wine, people and more, but without the attitude of Cali… 😉

Falesco Sangiovese about 10 bones. Great stuff.

Gary, Mott brings the thunder.

QOTD: Adelaida Cellars, Paso Robles CA

QOTD:2005 Thorn Clarke Terra Barossa Shiraz
2005 Greg Norman Limestone Coast Shiraz
2005 Clone 5 Pinot Noir
2006 Alexander Valley Vineyards New Gewurtz

By the way, Walla Walla is pretty sweet. Come this direction for a few days and THEN hit North Carolina.

Nice show…….
FORGET NC…..get your ass to Canada!!!!!!!! You have a legion here!
QOTD- 2002 Poliziano “Le Stanze” crappy vintage but the wine rocks!!!!!!!! and I got it by some crazy fluke from witty’s wine for 12 bones ?!?!?!??!

QOTD: No real go-to-wine. There is way too many new things to try. I do, however, occasionally like to quaff some shiraz-viognier.

Hi dude – QOD – Nero D’avola …. found a number of them that are inexpensive ($8 – 14), that are enjoyable with or without food… Go Sicily!

Glad you did a show on inexpensive cabs. We’ve found a couple, a bit over $10 that we like.

NC might be a bit far for us…depends on when. It’s within a few hundred miles. Charlotte is closer for us but I love Asheville.

QOTD: Not any one wine. We are always trying new things. Some we keep around are Bogle Petite Syrah, OVZ, several GSMs – Mr. Black’s Concoction for one. 377 Cab, Big House Red…always adding and changing.

Gary-
Everyday. Well, being a wholesaler makes that an easy hook up for me. Right now, vina cobos cocodrilo. or corbilieres tourraine rose of pinot. or nigl gruner veltliner. did i mention sumarroca cava?

Yessss, so pleased you are coming here to the Boston expo, I’ve never been either, but heck should be a rocking good time. I can’t wait to go to the WL table and meet Gary!
Yes, us Patriots fans will be (or should be if all the chips fall as they should) even more obnoxious at that point, nyuk-nyuk.

QOTD: I don’t have a ‘house’ wine as am fairly new to, er, oenophilia and am just learning and tasting all the different varieties. Tried another CA chardonnay this evening and damn that was so oaked too, I seem to be very sensitive to it (taste of oak)… I like big fruit but can’t stand new charry-oak.

QOD: Henry’s Drive Pillar Box Red and Wrongo Dongo.

I like the big ass glass.

Hey Gary…Fun show. Ya know around this price point I like the Avalon Cab. and EOS Cab.
QotD-
I really don’t have an everyday “go to” wine because it’s not what I’m about. I like to experience new wines from all over. Currently I’m traveling the world of Rose wines. I’ve had a few Tavel roses, Provence, Languedoc, South America, CA, and South Africa.
So far I’ve really enjoyed the Roses from Tavel and looking forward to trying more roses from that region.

Good show gary! I don’t really have a everyday wine. Right now I am trying to look for one and trying different wines everytime I drink. But I guess if I find one like these under $10, it will be house wine for visitors, but not be; I like good stuff and tasting different stuff.

Thanks Gary

QOTD: One of the great things about living in Hong Kong is the international nature of the wines avaliable (this is certainly not the case in your average Australia wine shop). Reds I’m very open and always trying as many new things as I can. Whites I tend to lean to Reisling and Semillon, but again I’m pretty open to trying new things.

I think you should make a “Changing the wine world whether they like it or not”
T-SHIRT. QOTD – tough question, but if I have one “go to” wine it would be the 2001 Ruffino Gold Reserve Chianti for red, and the 2005 Pierre a Feu Touraine for white (of which I hope you get more in stock).

Thanks Gary
