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).

    Gary-Low priced wines one day………..Bank breakers the next…..hum……………. 🙂

  • TampaSteve

    “83 points…..I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS”……lolol…..FREAKING CLASSIC!!!

  • John Farrin

    Thank God the Freemark Abbey Cab didn’t REALLY score. I think we should boycott them for this simple reason: they were the first California winery, to my knowledge, to start charging for tasting and therefore opening the floodgates for the stupidity that is going on now 🙂

    Another victory for the Pats
    This one will be 27/24 with New England on top, but it won’t be a cake walk.

  • DT

    Great show. Pats will win, but it will closer than people think if the Giants can bring some pass rush pressure. Giants will be able to run the ball.

    QOTD: Patriots will win sadly…

  • George from NEPA

    I agree with you man. I think Eli is gonna go back to his old ways and blow this game.
    Pats: 42
    Gmen: 24

    See what I did there haha. As for yesterday’s lack of comments, maybe the Vaniacs are carnivores?

  • Darwin

    Okay. I’ll delurk to satisfy your desire for a comment, so pay attention:

    No joke, it took me about ten or fifteen episodes to figure out you were saying ‘Mott’, not ‘Ma’. Like your mother was on the other side of the camera shooting the show. Must be an East Coast/West Coast thing that was lost in translation.

    Great show. Keep it up.

  • jett

    gv—— i could not agree with you more in regards to the mushroom cloud of uber concentrate in a can flavors from many of the aussie wines. perhaps the grapes lack deapth or finesse @ harvest. or, are allowed to over ripen soooooooooooo long, that the only solution to fix it is to produce the over the top nuke in a bottle. which is crap. jett

    QOTD: Pats by a lot. Great show. The Cimiky wine had a VERY tough group to follow. I have had it in other vintages and it was good but never great. Love you love the show.
