    The Qotd was so off the top of your head I do not have an answer. I dig your call somebody not talked to in a year idea though, thanks.

    I love the show. But the “taste relativism” is getting a bit much. SOME WINES ARE BETTER THAN OTHERS. It’s NOT all subjective. Just as Beethoven is better than Haydn, or a hamburger is better than a pile of maggots. An 82 Petrus is BETTER than a 2006 Yellow Tail. Yes, people like things differently, and that’s what’s important when deciding what to drink, but at some point a wine expert has to be able to say, “Yes, this wine is better than that one.”

    QOTD: Okay, apparently you didn’t heed my advice to get professional help that I gave you a couple of weeks ago. What’s it going to take Gary? An intervention?

    Let me see, a 69 last year, resulting in a near revolt. This year a 90. Smells a bit like an NBA make up call.

  • QOTD: How can I choose? Today I guess I’m most Professory.

    Awesome idea for the weekend.

    @BF on “taste relativism” – some wine is good and some wine is bad. But within the giant universe of good wine, there’s a whole lot of preference, and I think that was Gary’s point. …also, did you just compare Haydn to a pile of maggots?

    Happy weekend everybody. I’m going to go find someone to look up.
