“bitch! I can’t go left!!!”

Loire makes me think of awesome sweet honey oily juice and the vegetables are dirty with soy sauce and green raw beans and red beet roots and i just want to see gary slather cabernet frac grapes all over the excellent bum of a pretty model and they could all laugh and recite poems about the veggies and get close to jouissance with great sexuality?

Sorry GV,,,,no room in the budget for a LV Cab Franc this week,,,,this week I am going to a Andrew Will tasting(Chris is even going to be there)and I have only enough for some of his wine,,,,,I will Remember and have one soon, as I have tried our local ones(Washington) and enjoyed them in the past.

Always a bummer to have to tell a buddy his product is not so good,,,,I have friends who are brew masters and have to tell them this from time to time,,,,,never an easy thing to do.

QOTD: Packing my bags and jumping on that ship with grandpa! I’m already hooked on the idea of smelling a wine that can come close to the heavenly aromas that pour out of my mom’s sauce pots! That means these babies sure have a lot to live up to, though 🙂

Heading out now to try and find one. Will comment later if I do.

Where’s the WA Cab Franc? Walla Walla has some tastee offerings. Thanks for the ep.

QOTD — sorry, still not my flavor profile (all the greeness). Although I do sometimes like the funk — sippin’ a Fer right now that has it big time.

“T”

i am still feelin my way through chino and cab franc. i have not given up on it, but it doesn’t tickle my elmo. i bout some charles joguet, les varennes du grand clos 05. i have not tapped it yet, but when it is mature, i look forward to it. i am trying.
it is a tough deal to drop some major constructive criticism on your buddies but i commend you for doing it. it could have been easy to say it is great, buy 2 cases!
QOTD: i will go out and get some. there are some that i have been checkin out.i told myself no french wine for 2 weeks with the exception for vday with some champagne : )
bravo

We’ve had Cab Franc but not from Loire Valley. It would be an educational experience.

QOTD: Probably not this weekend…Seeing as it is the weekend after valentines day and we aren’t going to have much time to celebrate during the week. We are pretty much looking to enjoy a wine that we both think is DELICIOUS…maybe a zinfandel. But we will look for it in the future.

OK, you twisted my arm…which doesn’t take much! Cab Franc this week is now the plan.

YEEAAH…every Aussie Shiraz dreams at night of one day becoming a Chinon.

QOTD: I’ll absolutely drink a Loire Cab Franc for you over the next couple days. I think out of the two cases of wine I have in my little “cellar”, five of them are Cab Franc!

Honesty, even though it may come at the expense of a “friend” is why the Vayner Nation adores you. Thank you for a great show and one that enlightens us.

QOTD: I promise to put some “funk de funk that smells like a skunk in the trunk” this weekend and leave a tasting note.

Cheers!

P.S. You hit the nail on the head, the pill out of the park on the CARM. Glad I waited for it. Very nice. I may take a bottle to a friendly wine tasting soon.

Yes….I will.

Can you email me your suggestion?

Thanks brother!

Mission to be accomplished bro. Will get back with my tasting notes soon!

Cheers,
KP

QOTD: Yes.

Re: qotd: Definitely will try to seek one out this weekend.
Today was a great example of why WLTV rocks (fun, instructive and with honesty and integrity). Saying exactly what you thought about the Larkin bottle took guts but its exactly why I watch. No bs, but straight from the heart. Thanks GV!:)

QOTD: If I can find one I will definitely try and report back…not a lot of variety here on the plains.

GV you need to do a show with a live audience this year. Not just the drive by audience you get in the office but a serious vayniac attended live show. I think it would be HUGE!!

QOTD: Sorry man, but 1: I can’t drop 20 bucks on a single bottle of wine, 2: the
“old world” taste absolutely does not appeal to me, and 3: there are a million (well, 20-30) other wines that I need to try asap.

Hell, I enjoyed the episode though. Funky vegetables in the rain, wet dog and cow shit- sounds familiar. Maybe if I drink a shot of pure everclear and my tastebuds burn out I’ll enjoy the funk. I’ll bookmark this episode and put it in my “to try in one year” folder.
