Thanks for doing the Mitolo GAM. I’ve often wondered what your thoughts on that might be. I’m really looking forward to trying it. If you ever do a heartland tour, you MUST make a Twin Cities stop.

QOTD: Missed the Twinkies game but watched the Detroit/KC game and the SD/Astros game.

Once again, great show! I looked for the Waterwheel locally and amazingly it is available so I’m definitely gonna give that a try. I was drinking so much Bordeaux over the winter that I’m really leaning towards more fruit forward wines now that spring is here.

QOTD: Gotta go with the Giants…

They still play baseball in the US? Oh yeah thats right nobody has the attention span anymore to follow 162 games.

That was something we haven’t seen in a while Gary drinking some fruit bombs.

QOTD Obvz the BOSOX, its all about the repeat!!!

I think the Mitolo is a killer wine and well worth the Tom you have to put down, that and the Schild in my opinion are the best Shiraz’s in Oz at this particular price point.
even though I am South African, I have to admit I love the Aussie wines, the even make some darn good Riesling [another favourite]
Nice show

QOTD: GO CARDS!!!

Another great episode! Once again you pulled all the stops trying something that was just over the top… I found it very interesting how Australian wines were your main interest in the beginning…it almost seem that too much of a good thing loses its luster…don’t know if it ever lost its thunder for you but glad you did these wines.I’ve been drinking a lot Shiraz’s of late and was glad to see the Mitolo Gam…I’m putting that one on my list to try next.Great show as always…keep bringing the thunder GV.

QOTD: THE YANKEES

Loved this EP Gary.

QOTD: I am a Boston Man…sorry!!!

Great show, I’m really into Shiraz right now. Gonna look for the Water Wheel and Mitolo. I agree with the above comment on Schild.

Go Braves!

Great show! While I tend to like the Olde World wines better than the fruit bombs, I have several fruit bombs in my cellar that I adore (like Amon-Ra Godolphin amongst others). Very interesting show. The Water Wheel sounds like a must try.

QOTD: GO TRIBE!!!! (‘Nuff said)

Nice to finally see some wines that we can hook up in Canada. Looking forward to trying the Mitolo GAM

Thanks GV

Yo Gee, Nice to see some love for da Auzzie Vino……
QOTD: Will be rootin’ for da Squaws…..er Indians, Padres, Angels,
and Dodgers……….

QOTD- Went to Cupid’s Hot Dogs (since I couldn’t make it to the game) and brought back a dog for everyone at the office to celebrate Opening Day. Dodgers are going all the way this year!

go brewers!

QOTD- my team is probably the worst team in baseball this year (S.F. Giants), but I will still root for them. When your team is bad it takes a little luster out of the season though.

Great episode that made me really thirsty for Shiraz! If you are traveling to the midwest, you should stop in Montana! We have Glacier Park, Yellowstone Park, tons of fishing, hiking, mountains… QOTD: Go Rockies!

Great show so I ordered some of the Mitolo and Water Wheel.

QOTD: I attended “the” Opening Day at Nationals Park. A really, really nice venue and got to see the Pres throw out the first pitch. Do you think Obama has a clue what a baseball is?

I root for the Nats (I used to be an Os fan until the Angelos dynasty ran them into the ground) but who wins it all? On paper, the Bosox but since I hate ’em and everything associated with the NE area, I’ll go with the Dodgers.

Cheers!
Dom

Come visit New Mexico; maybe Santa Fe!!

I’m going for the LG Twins, a Korean team, since that’s where I live.

We get a lot of Aussie wines here as the price points make them reasonable, and I’ve noticed that fruit bombs are best drunk after being open three days, it seems to really tone down the red-level fragrances usually present.

QoTd
The S.F. Giants are going to top everyone this year!

GV,

I agree on the Waterwheel Shiraz Bendigo! I was about as taken back as you were when you tasted it. I purchased, on sale, at a World Market (since I can’t seem to get any wine shipped to AZ) location and it was absolutely the shizz! Keep up the good work my friend!

QOTD- Placed my D-backs cap on the dash all day for all to see in the parking lot at work! I can hope too little Jets fan!;)

QOTD: Dodgers

If you decide to visit the home of Jesse the Body, we’ll hook you up with some serious shizzle. Like it, or not.

QOTD: Twins over the Giants. 7 games. (or not)

oooo very cool. been waiting for some Aussie action.

thanks!

I’ve recently had bottles of the Boarding Pass and another Water Wheel – the Memsie Red – and thought the Boarding Pass was better. The Memsie is a cheaper bottle, so I’m looking forward to trying the Shiraz Bendigo for comparison.
