QOTD1: Almost about every bottle I try is a first of its kind for me.
QOTD2: I think I may have tried a NY wine 2 years ago while having a vacation in the Adirondacks, but wasn’t ‘wine aware’ enough at the time to register the producer/type in my memory banks. Shall certainly seek out that Gewurtz!

Oh no, you’ve caught me! I’ve NEVER had a New York wine. Sad. Will have to fix that.

Hey, what’s up with all the wine you dump?? Jerk. 😉

QOTD: If I’ve had any New York state wines it was probably over 30 yrs. ago and I honestly don’t remember.

QOTD1: I usually drink a different wine each time. Maybe a same producer but a different varietal.

QOTD2: …I don’t think I’ve had any from New York.

No..a New York wine is not something I generally look for. I’m still thinking about that poor deer, you brought up yesterday, covered in berries….Kind of violent for a wine tasting program.

THANK YOU, GARY!

Kathleen

Keep on trying wines from New York State!

I am so expanded!
QOTD – MacGregor…..great winery on Kueka Lake. I had a tonne of their wines in the last year!

For sure trying many types of wine especially Italian, Spanish, Australian Chilean and Argentinian wines…..NY wines not so much ok never

QOTD: Of course! I’m always trying new wines, tonight we’re going with a Langhe

QOTD2: On Wednesday I had two NYstate wines. I had the 2006 Herman Weimer Riesling, and felt pretty much the same way that you did about it, I went around 88pts if we’re keeping track. I also had a 2003 Palmer Cab Franc Reserve which I wasn’t super impressed with.

Haven’t really tried any of these I must admit.

So, where are you and when are you getting back?

A nice couple of whites there, I’d happily drink either.

QOTD – The Wölffer 1998 Cabernet Franc, drank last October. Rated it 89 but I think it was past it’s peak, could have been into the 90s a couple of years ago. That was the one and only, difficult to source NY wines over here (I picked up the Wölffer on a trip to D.C.)

Q(s)OTD: Yes, recently I’ve tried my first Albarino, Torrontes, and Bonarda. It’s all for you GV. Have not, however, ever had a NY wine.

QOTD: 2002 Paumanok Asseblage LI, Bordeaux style blend. It was kick-ass great; served it blind and NOBODY pegged it as being from LI.

I had some Riesling from Finger Lakes and can’t remember the producer but I didn’t like it. My palate is already pretty well developed from tasting so many wines and other things over the years. I don’t have the palate of GV because so many of these things from the 80’s he describes are things maybe my kids would have eaten and I wouldn’t eat much of anything they were eating. When GV described a dear, I have to wonder if he has ever dealt with fresh killed dear. The odor is a combination of iron and crap. Not really what I want in a wine.

QOTD: Never had one in my entire natural life! But, I’d like to someday.

I’m always trying something new or looking for that exceptional bottle of wine. As far as NY wines, not impressed…it may be because the wine I had wasn’t any good or just ok to good…I give it a pass for now. Good episode…not only do we get wine-tasting with scores but fashion week! or fashion statement……….
