QOD: anything with semi or bittersweet chocolate

Bananas Foster
Bread Pudding
Warm strawberry-rhubarb pie with vanilla ice cream
Flan

All tied for first place.

Argentine Malbecs are rockin QPRs!! Mendoza in da Howse!

QOTD: at the moment, sour cream doughnuts. But I have a sudden craving for raspberry-rhubarb pie.

Authentic key lime pie, esp. the kind I made earlier in the evening.

Pity you didn’t have any Pepiere Cot, wonderful light and bright stuff that’s neither harsh nor overly frooty, and changes your whole idea of what malbec can be.

Speakin’ of which, I won’t be able to Be There unfortunately as I have my own charitable wine shindig to prepare for …

Nice haircut. You’re looking sharp.

I was pretty happy to come home and see that you did a show on Malbec today since that’s what I bought at the store on my way home. Not the same one, but I enjoy tasting along never the less.

QOTD: Cannolis. They are so good. Especially the ones with chocolate morsels.

Actually I think I’ll have the rest of the cake

I totally want to see Motts hair now. Love Malbec, appreciated the comparison in decently priced wines. Thanks GV!

QOTD – Loooooooove Creme Brulee, can’t help it, oh and also a fan of butter biscuits with fresh rasperry sauce & sweet cream. Oh yeah!!

Cheers!

QOTD: Mom’s home-made apple pie!

GV,
Help me with the Malbec’s…..what do you pair with food and cheese with this wine. Not a big fan of Malbec’s….

QOTD: I love stinky cheese, a great bottle of Port and some big, plump red grapes as my favorite dessert. Throw in some great wheat crackers and I could have dessert all night long. If I had to pick another dessert, it would have to be grandma’s homemade apple pie (with all natural ingredients….sugar, cream, lard….the way grandma cooked in the 60’s…with vanilla bean real ice cream…not the fake stuff…..my mouth is watering now…I am not sure what wine would go with this….maybe a Hungarian wine…..

Love Malbec!

Love Malbec!

Favorite line of the day: My Little Pony toothpaste
Question of the Day: Blueberry Klug (YUM!)

When do we get to vote again for the Mott t-shirt?!?!?

I’ve only tried one Malbec, from Argentina, it sort of confused me, started OK, but I ended up pouring out the last glass or two a few days later, it seemed to fall apart quickly after opening.

QOTD: In Phoenix there is a Mexican food chain called Garcia’s, they have something called Chocolate Chimis, chocolate tortillas wrapped around a cream cheese center, deep fried, then covered with choc syrup and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. We order this with our meal, eat dessert first (it turns gross once it cools off), and take home whatever is left of the actual dinner. We don’t take any chances that we’re full before we order dessert.

QOTD: Homemade vanilla ice cream with dilettante ephemere chocolate sauce (and sometimes raspberries from the garden too).

QOTD: I just made and ate me some mint chocolate chip frozen yogurt…. mmm tasty.

I like the Malbecs in fact I think a malbec was one of the first wines I ever had. Have a good one GV!

Great session. I have tried Malbec’s – not impressed. Need to try more. I am in search for these two. how could would that be to have both and re-watch your session? hmmm. big screen, neighbors, some munchables to go along… wow.
GREAT.

Favorite dessert? I’d say a choco mouse. oh. my. 60+ dark chocolate.
yes. a totally red Zinfindel.

Great little show; I love taste off’s. I’ve never had a Malbec from France. Often times I take my Malbec from Argentina with a grain of salt, b/c I think that they often come rather young and hot. However I’ve found some good ones lately. QOTD: Apple pie!!

Malbec? I don’t think so. Keep it a blending grape.
QOTD; There were two questions. Dessert and “What you gonna do when the Mott runs wild on you?” or something to that effect.
Both QOTD will not be answered.

I’m really enjoying these taste-offs. Thanks, Gary.

QOTD: At the moment I’m into all things Italian, so I’m going with panna cotta.

QOTD: sticky toffee pudding @ Little Giant (Broome & Orchard Sts in NYC). My girlfriend and I still refer to it as ‘the best thing ever’, a pet name we ripped off from the table next to us the first night we ordered it.

raspberry sherbert

QOTD – Wife made a “Frozen Lemonade Pie” on Sunday . . . I’ve been enjoying it all week. I have a 2006 Gascon Malbec from Mendoza, Argentina in my wine fridge. It will be my 1st Malbec.

QOTD – Fresh Peach Cobbler with the crunchy good stuff on top.
