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).

    That was intense! To be a true Ernie S. wine, you have to duck it for 20 years until it no longer packs a punch, then give it a title shot. N.E. all the way, Boston is going to rule the world.

    Being a Marshall University student back in the second half of the nineties with Randy Moss I have to root for him. Even in high school we knew that he would be bound for greatness if he kept his attitude in check. I think he is finally with a team that is good enough to humble him but at the same time bring out his skills. The team is just all around a great team in which he complements and is not the center of. So I say Patriots. I am not even a Patriots fan, but I must say I give them the nod here.

    QOTD: Patriots (how should I know??)

    I’ve been thinking about weekend-ing down to Santa Barabara and sampling that “other” wine country. This just gives me a good destination while I’m down there. My sister is the big Grenache fan, but you’ve piqued my interests this time. If nothing else, I can do a little bit of early Christmas shopping. Good thing I have a basement cellar.

  • Kick ass episode. Mott gets a T, Giants going to the bowl, big day for the Mottster, I think he needs to sit down and give his pregame predictions tomorrow. Big wines too. Thanks Gary, once again, for setting things strait. I am tired of candied, fake, jammed up wines getting all the points these days. We need wines to eat with! I don’t eat jam with my steak!
    QOTD: Its time someone stops Boston, lest the world be covered in darkness. Giants 27 Pats 24 in OT. It will be a good game.

    QOTD: Pats. Gotta be the Pats. Can’t stomach Eli winning the Lombardi. Plus, chance to make history, move ’72 over and make room for ’08, is always a good thing. Sort of like how WLTV is changing the wine world.

    “Rhone head” — yah. Rhone Rangers, Paso/Templeton – killer shiz.

  • I’m not even going to watch the super bowl. I’m still bitter about my Chargers losing! I want the Giants to kick some Pats ass as much as anyone, but I just don’t think they will pull through and I don’t want to watch the slaughter that is going to take place.

    Great ep and JoshL – I digg the pulp fiction ref.

    QOTD: Patriots, 38-20. I think we see the warm-weather Tom Brady-Randy Moss show in full effect, as the Pats o-line ramp up their pass protection and Moss breaks free for two scores. The Pats’ pressure gets to Eli fast and often, and the Eli we know and love (does anyone smell 3 INTs?) comes back, full force. Sorry, Eli, you’re just not ready for the big show.
