    Gary, be easy on Mott and show him some love. You always say love your family and he’s part of your WL family. As for the stain, call Billy Mays and tell him to bring over some OXY CLEAN! QOTD- Going to work about 6:30pm and end up in St.Pete,FLA at about 2am. No wine in my future until Sunday pm.

    $15 Bordeaux, burgers on the grill, and watching my Texas Rangers pull of a miracle and beat Matsuzaka and the Red Sox at Fenway. At least two of the three are a sure thing.

    QOTD – Its friday and the work week is over brother. That calls for getting out the cork opener and visiting the wine shelf to make a selection. Don’t know what it is, but I am sure it will be nice. Actually might be something we had delivered the other day…. 😉

    Excellent work by Mott on the rug….

    QOTD: My wife and I are going over to my sisters for my bother-in-law’s birthday celebration. So there will be good company, food and wine for all. Got to love family. Cheers!

    Nice show as always, I will third the Rhone Rangers request and make an additional one for some Oregon Pinot tasting or some of their red other varietals from del rio or columbia gorge, just a thought.

    QOTD: Cleaning before my rents come tomorrow for a short overnight stay. Possibly a bottle of Kaesler shiraz as well

  • Interesting to see this wine on the show…they have a very large following from a lot of people I know….I’d agree. Just a little too much.

    QOTD: Sleeping…I just finnished work and I have 16 hours more for tomorrow….I’m tired.

  • Way to kick Mott’s a** around today. That was an amazing carpet stainy-stain! And hey Mott, thanks for that lingering butt shot when you got sent to the couch. Still… Mott still deserves a LINK IT UP t-shirt. Am I not merciful?

    Justin today? Last night at my Dad’s house, we had the Justin Chardonnay. I enjoyed it. He’s got some of the Cabs laying around too. When you’re in the mood for an aerial attack, release the fruit bombs!

    QOTD: What am I doing tonight? Giving my toddler a bath, then when the wife gets home, chillin like Bob Dylan, hopefully with a glass of a little sump’in sump’in good.

    QOTD – I’ll be taking my wife out for an Italian dinner at Mario’s. VERY good food and the BEST wine list in Polk county, FL. You need to check it out next time you are in the Tampa/Orlando area.

    FOLEX Mott Folex! take it from someone who spills far to much red wine.

    I couldn’t agree more on the Isosceles. My wife and just got back from a central coast wine vacation and Justin was a huge disappointment, mass produced tourist wines anyone.

    Gary please hurry on the central coast Rhone varietals. The list you read absolutely killed it on our trip. Tablas Creek is starting to make wines that are unreal. It took them a long time to get some of the varietals through quarantine. Try the esprit de beaucastel 05, Tanser 93, Parker 92-94, me in tasting room last week “Holy Crap this is good”. Not sure how that translates on a point scale but it has to be lot.

    Great show, but you need to lighten up on Mott.

    QOTD – actually taking this weekend off and will be with my grandaughter along with my daughter and son-in-law. By the way he is the one that made me aware of you and Vayner nation.

    I think the stain will just add character to your office. It looks nice…eh, maybe.

    QotD: About to head to the grocery store, and maybe pick up something to drink.

    QOTD: If I could ever get out of the office (I’m listening to the show in the background), I’m headed home. We’ve got a friend on her way back from Paris staying for the weekend. I’m anxious to help her cure some jet leg with a nice glass (or three) of wine.

    Cheers!

    Mott,
    use oxiclean to take care of the stain. Yes, it really works. Handle of Trader Joe’s sack broke just as I was putting it in my car. Bottle of zin shattered and stained car seat and my jeans. Wife whipped out miniture spray can of oxiclean from her purse that she received as a Christmas gift from one of our kids. Could not believe my eyes as both stains disappeared after blotting with paper towels. All those years watching the infomertial and thinking it was a big rip off. Wrong!
