White wine rules – love to try new things. Never had a straight-up Roussane, I’ll have to seek one out.

AND – today is the day I officially start harassing you about that Ohio Riesling from Ferrantes!!!

Kiddies were off school today (weather) – spent the day with them!

Gary good episode. I for sure don’t hate on the whites.

QOTD:
-The few bottles of Black Pig Albarino i am loving 🙂

DOTD:
-I told the wifey i loved her on instant messenger and i will hug her extra tonight 🙂

qotd: i don’ have enough money to be buying wine lately
dotd: i don’ really have anyone to hug

….wow. how sad was that?

That song on hollowaymakesmusic is INSANE EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QOTD: My husband and I have been ROCKING the white wines that combine gasoline and fruit!! Riesling is a number 1 fav, and some Touraine too. Apon discovering how delicious the white wine flavor can be, we are in a huge white phase. thanks for the episode!

gave my mans a big kiss, and wrote the mom and grandparents!!!!!

Hacksaw Jim Duggan’s 2X4 on fire smacking you in the mouth – Gary, I about fell out of my chair. That was the most awesome description I have heard to boot!

Rock on…

I hugged my moms.

Gary-QOTD: Fav. White is Martin Codex Albarino. You insisted that we try Albarinos and that’s what I could find near me. It does NOT disappoint!! Very excellent wine with or without food. Especially good with shell fish or just plain fish!! 🙂

The show title was a bit confusing (thought it would be NA wineries that imported their juice!)

QOTD — I keep trying all sorts of white, and they never get above merely serviceable for me. My pal prefers pinks for most of the times others like whites

I am new to winetv and I love it. I have been watching a couple of episodes a day to get caught up. I got a “big ass glass” which my husband calls my BAG. I thought it was kind of clever but I’m sure someone has come up with this before. I really enjoy your show.
QOTD: VIÃ?A DOÃ?A PAULA Malbec Luján de Cuyo Los Cardos is the last new wine I’ve tried.

Just kissed my dog, the famed “Pickle-butt”, full front on………..and she liked it! Why are Aussie Shepherds like that?

Great show Gary!

Thanks for the photo-op to open the show, never thought I would be there!
But seriously, Bo Jackson in Tecmo Bowl, at least make it challenging and take Walter Payton.

QTOD: Just called my girlfriend and right now am enjoying some Nassau Valley white wines.

Isn’t Ash Hollow a Washington wine? (not Oregon, as listed in the link) I’ve tried and enjoyed several of their wines and will have to pick up some gewurzt next.

Just texted my hubby to tell him I love him. 🙂

Favorite whites — almost too many to list. I’ve become a convert this year, and I drink many more white wines than ever before. Generally, I enjoy vouvrays, sancerres, torrontes (thanks to a recent episode of WLTV!), and gewurztraminers (especially when paired with super spicy Thai food). One of my local faves is the DeLille Cellars Chaleur Estate Blanc. I also really love Huet vouvrays.

Gary

Love right back at ya…keep up the fine work my man…
QotD : Vergelegen Sauv. Blanc 2005 South Africa…great stuff and Vinoptima Gewurstraminer 2003, Gisborne New Zeeland…also fantastic.

DOTD: Sundays are weekly fam nights–Called Mom and Dad last night. The big bro called me last night so talked to him also. I suppose I should call the little sis so she doesn’t feel left out.

QOTD: Rosemount Traminer/Riesling–it’s like drinking a handful of razor blades–razor sharp–awesome.

Great show, GV. Especially enjoyed the Rousanne – I’m always curious if/how wines can hold it together above 14%…

DOTD: Check, check and check.

QOTD: Rieling. Not “new” in the sense that I’ve certainly had it before, but I’ve been really more focused on trying it from different regions (Alsace, BC, Germany, Australia,etc) in recent months.

Really gooooood show. I’ve been getting into the whites big time this winter season which usually encompasses du Papes and Syrahs.

QOTD: My recent fav white has been the Emmolo SB from CA though I hope your recently reviewed Viognier will become the new white king of my PAL or the Gravner I received as one of the prizes from MenuForHope.

Cheers!

P.S. xoxoxox to all

QOTD – Albarino

I agree that whites are just as complex and thought provoking as reds, but are they as healthy as red wine? Red wine has the polyphenerols and all that good stuff in the skin. I needs to get my antioxidants GV.

QOTD: Rhone whites and Gewurtztraminer

QOTD: Rhone whites and Gewurtztraminer

I recently tried a white Cote du Rhone and loved it. I drank it over the course of 3 days and each time I loved the nose even more. The reason it took me so long to drink was because I enjoyed the nose so much. I also tried a Sancerre last week for the first time and continued to confirm that I love Sauv Blanc. Gawurtz is one of my favorites too. The more I write the more I realize how much I like white wine. I NEED to try more riesling.

My QOTD: Who is better…Randall Cunningham from Tecmo 2 or Bo Jackson from Tecmo 1?

QOTD 2: In Bill Walsh College Football (Sega Genesys circa 1995), has anyone ever audibled from a running play with Bo Jackson to a field goal. You can kick 65 and 70 yard field goals with Bo Jackson.

Kissed and hugged my wife and 18 month daughter!!!

My son is a US Marine currently deployed. We keep in touch with him online often.

QOTD: New favorite: China Silk Wine’s Reisling..only 7 US Bones!

My dad got the love after the thunder show! And right now my favorite white wine is a 2006 Sauvignon Blanc by Preston Premium Wines out of Washington – but Ash Hollow’s tasting room in Walla Walla is right next to Preston’s, and I bought that Gewurtz a while back and fell in love! You stole my favorite, GV!
