QOTD: Never tried it so I guess I don’t know. Have to put it on the list.

Don’t let the number of comments get you down. Isn’t it the loyal consistent fans that really count? I certainly miss the excitement. Let bring back the Thunder.

Go on strike until you get 1000 comments. Stand up for you!!. Have never had a Sauternes but need to seek it out.

have not had any yet 🙁

Gary, sweetie… You had 182 comments on your first anniversary show, and around 670 on yesterday’s before I watched today’s ep. I want you to think about this just for a moment.

I’m glad your email made me laugh, because episode #413, while informative, left me (and my 15yr old, who often watches w/me) feeling deflated. “Smell”?!! That’ll be enough of that crap! You did seem to be working rather hard at being subdued, so I have hope.

QOTD: I’ll bet I would like Sauterne. Haven’t had one due mainly to price intimidation. But I really enjoy a good port, have had some late harvest rieslings and some other dessert-type wines that I’ve liked very much, so if I could find a $30+/- Sauterne…

Question for you, GV:
why did you taste the sauternes older to younger?
And have you ever rated a cheese less than 90????

🙂

QOTD: Mon Dieu!! Est-ce que j’aime les Sauternes?!?!? Mais oui!! I remember a tasting which was my friend’s 26th birthday — well….let me just say that he was born in 1947… need I say more? Think Yquem here. omg.

Do I like Sauternes? YES, many times over! It is one of the many wines that I require periodically. We have a few 1990’s in our cellar and have to agree that they’re one of the best “values” out there. I typically look for Rieussec, Climens, Doisy-Vedrines, etc.

Beyodf Fargues, what do you recommend?

Oh baby oh baby! I love me some sauternes…cant wait to watch this one. Should I pop a half bottle and drink along with the show?!?!

your show rocksssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup….

QOTD: Yes…I love Sauternes. I have some 01’s and 03’s set aside for the long haul. I was blessed with the chance to taste a 1976 d’Yquem in the summer of 2006 and have been on the hunt for an affordable bottle of it ever since then. I’ve never had foi gras yet though….great show…bumber you didn’t hit a grand yesterday…

hey man, i miss more shows than i see, yeah, i know i’m a slacker. also a dad w/2 active kids. my time is their time. BUT i LOVE your show. sorry i missed the chance to help meet the 1000.Keep it going! your an original and way way fun. oh yeah had delightful, yummmy sauterne in new orleans years ago…never forgot it..

Thanks for busting out the cheese for a change. That reminds me to have some cheese with my corbieres wine here.
QOTD: have not had one yet, but hope to someday.

QOTD: Never had it. We expect your enthusiasm to return by tomorrow!

Thanks for the episode today. When I saw your twitter status on facebook I was crushed. I was so happy you decided to tape today though!

QOTD: I wish I could afford to try it, but I’ll just have to wait until I’ve moved on from the CKC and the Med School KC. I’m sure it will be worth it.

GV,

Don’t let the 1,000 comment short-fall get you down. Shake it off! Tomorrow’s a new day and a laid-back Friday at that.

And we’re working furiously on getting a Boston wine tasting group going thanks to you!

QOTD: Never had a Sauternes but you did help me with the pronounciation on D’Yquem and Botrytis.

QOTD: Hell yeah I like Sauternes, and I like you Gary. Cheer up, chump!

Leaving a comment just to make sure Gary never does another down show like this.

Missed the second anniversary commentary yesterday. I just got the new Wine Spectator, then, and was distracted. Oh well. Seems like a long time–2 years–and a very short time, as well. The 400 episode mark seemed so much more remarkable, incredible, awesome, radool. I’ve got an open Doisy Vedrines on the counter that was started a week ago. Also, some truffle cheese to go with it.

QOTD: I think I’ve just had Jordan’s 1983 The Riviere Rousse which is modelled after Chateau d’Yquem. It was wonderful. Dessert wines are special occasion wines for me, so I don’t have them much, but so far I like sauternes the best.
The show is stopping and starting a lot and Quicktime isn’t kicking in, so I’ll finish it tomorrow.

Not keen on the dessert wines,maybe they will grow on me.
