  • Wow, GV, you mentioned before that you lost a winemaker friend over your broadcast, when you didn’t like his wine. I can tell from today’s ep. that it really stung. Sorry to hear that. But you’re keeping it rizzeal, so that’s why you’ve got the Vayniac Nation’s love. Today’s wine sounded interesting, because you mentioned the Amarone-like nose. But Amarone is something I’ve been curious about trying anyway, so maybe I’ll just skip over to one of those instead.

    Hey, how about some more dessert wines at the end of your video flights? I’d love to hear your thoughts on Banyuls.

  • Spending Easter weekend with the family – gonna pour some fun stuff.

    Is the 2003 CDV available at all? I’m going to buy some of the 2004, but would love to get my hands on the earlier vintage you went nuts over…

  • fabulous show. i enjoyed the video and found myself wishing there was a link to a google(?) map with the location of the vineyard marked on it. i really like seeing the pictures, tasting a wine, and having a real sense of location. to have an overlay for google earth with wine regions etc. . . i have to go look and see if it is already there.
    thanks for the awesomeness.

    A member of the CKC, and I will be the only one of my friends here for spring break next week. So, I’m thinking of spending the weekend spending my easter money on a few bottles. Try out some new wines next week, perhaps?

    Nice episode, that vineyard looked beautiful.

    QOTD: This weekend I am bumming around and getting ready for finals. Most of the bus routes are shut down for the holiday and anything as serious as grocery shopping is pretty much impossible.

Happy Easter!

    That was an awesome vineyard. I think you should actually try to include video clips of vineyards on the show whenever you can. One of the things I really like to do with wine is track down and try obscure wines from places that I have been in Italy, like Gravina, Castel Del Monte, Basilicato, etc. Drinking these wines and having an image of where they came from in my head is always really satisfying for me.

    Was at the Manhattan Third Thirsty Thursday tasting with Dan K and Co. last night and had a good time.

    QOTD: Early night tonight. Tomorrow night I will be going to this live figure drawing thing I usually go to on Saturdays. Sunday I will be having Easter dinner at a friends house and bringing some (hopefully) great wine. Then I have Monday off.
