QOTD: 2006 Thomas-Labaille Sancerre Chavignol Les Monts Damnés

You are so right about wine bringing people together!

Domaine 1000 Roses Au gre du temps 05
Talkin’ bout Coteaux Du Libron bringing some serious value thunder! OH YES!
It’s got the tobacco, bitter chocolate, bark, smoky meat and just a dash of the new worldy fruit to bring it to that beautiful balance of “something for everyone”. I KNOW this will kill all the other wines, hands down, point-by-point for value, enjoyment, balance, and mmm mmm goooodness.

Man I need a rest after that show.
Welcome back and good, affordable wines on the show, although i still gravitate to the New World.
Happy Easter to all

One of my favorite episodes! Thanks Gary, you’ve reinstated my love for French wines

QOTD: Not sure yet!

Great show as usual, glad you were able to really bring the thunder and rock it out! This weekend I am planning on drinking a bottle of Educated Guess Cabernet Sauvignon.

QoTD: 2000 Regusci Cab -and- a 2000 Conn Valley cab, of course, with la familia from outta town.

Outrageously amazing show! Thank you GV!

We tried to watch last night during the Twin Cities Vayniac TTT event but there was a bit too much commotion to really follow along. Thank you for bringing us together.

QOTD: I’m going to cheat a bit and mention the fun little surprise I brought to last night’s tasting. Marumoto Shuzo Hana Hou Hou Shu sparkling sake. It comes in a cute little pink bottle and it’s delicious! If you can find it I recommend giving it a try.

QOTD: This weekend with dinner on Sunday we’ll be drinking a 2005 Va La Cristallo

Great show, my wife thought it was her favorite one ever. What energy, did you eat about 500 pixie sticks and just let the sugar rush flow or what? Loved it!

QOTD: We are going to test some apparently good QPR wines this weekend to see how many more we need to buy.

Perrin & Fils Vacqueyras Las Chrisines 2005. Wine Spectator 91 Points, around 17 bones. Are you kidding me, a Rhone at this price and score if it brings the thunder its time to load up.

Hanna Chardonnay 2006 Russian River Wine Enthusiast 92 points around the same price. Great price for a California Chard. Please wines, Please bring the thunder.

QOTD: I am opening a 2004 Chapelle-St-Arnoux Gigondas tonight. Amazing show!! What a great way to start a beautiful day, thanks for the energy. April 1st. will be my first secret taste-along, I am super excited!
