I’m into the butter bandit. Bring it on!

why spit into a bucket with your favorite team’s logo on it? As a diehard Packer fan, I’d gladly spit into a Bears or Viking spit bucket ….

QOTD: I took the pats and lost a $100

QOTD: I watched this too late. 🙂 But now I predict that when I get home to Maine, all the football fans will still be inconsolably depressed.

Butter bandit! haha you gotta make shirts for that. A stick of butter robbing the fruit from chardonnay.

QOTD: Just watched WLTV 2/5 and the Giants won on 2/3, so I can’t make a prediction. 🙁

I scored two bottles of the McPrice locally…yum. I get a lot of Brussel Sprout though underneath the fruit. Very nice. Let’s see how it fares tomorrow with some food.

Nice work with the wine today…not so much with the initial SB prediction though.

Hey Gary,
I am glad you are staying. I have turned learning more about wines as a second hobby!! Between WLTV and traveling to Bordeaux last year, I am having a ball!! Keep up the good work!!

Great show!!! Hermitage has been on my splurge list for a while, got to try one.

Nothing to see here, no lurking here.
Good episode.

True that, Gary, our pals can change. Thank you for embracing that concept.

Friend from mmo social network told me about this…rofl to exploding wine!

Good show Gary–truly lived up to the “thunder” rep! Trying to get you to 500 even if it is March….

QOTD: Eli scrambles away from 50 possible sack opportunities, throws a prayer to his TE who catches it on his pinky while horizontal and getting crushed from both directions which leads to a last minute TD and Giant Superbowl rings all round. 😉

BTW 491 and counting…

Also a fan of the McPrice, my wife and I love yr show and the Grenach. Let’s see a show on Navarra and Jumilla. Keep it up!!!

i don’t hate you…. i don’t have a particular flavor profile that i prefer… i really just care about strong structure (mid-palate, finish, balance, complexity etc…) what region/grape do i look to for the best qpr?

Great show. Glad you went on and treated yourself even though the last wine was a dud. My wine shop has Hermitage so I will look into buying one in the future. QOTD: Well obviously its way too late, but I was Giants all the way. I HATE the Pats and didnt want them to share the light with the 72′ Dolphins.

Hermitage. I have to try it now. I am a big rhone fan and have never had the pleasure of hermitage. Don’t know if I am going to spend 110 bucks but I will seek out the varietal.
Great show.

Gary, you should have on the show McPrice Myers Syrah Les Galets 06

how do the: CROZES-HERMITAGE and CAVE DE TAIN stack up?

Crozes is the cousin wine, a bit less expensive but its syrah and not far from the same taste experience . Cave de Tain is a producer that makes both hermitage and Crozes-H

You asked for it Gary and you got it! You wanted 500 comments on this episode and here you go your 500th comment, and it only took 2 and a half years to get it 🙂

qotd:

OMG! Just had the 04 Delas Herimtage Bessard last night, I have to say that it’s the most balanced and well made wine I’ve ever tasted. The balance is crazy and combined with a ton of subtle lovely nuances it makes it almost worth the price tag ($110 is still quite above my normal range).
