  • Great to see more and more Italy varietals being added over the last month Gary. 🙂

    I enjoy the Gattinara… but think its a littl overhyped, the bottle shape helps!

    QOTD: I think Chris is just prematurely gray and really, he’s only 23 🙂

  • Did somebody say paahhtee? Fort Mason party sounds like a blast, I already signed up.

    PS – I guess this means I’m not a lurker anymore.

    I have had the ’04 Ciro, and I definitely got the tomato component, but I actually don’t like tomato flavors in my wine so much, I have discovered. I had the ’98 Travaglini, and it didn’t kill me, but was better than the ’03 sounded. I also have an un-opened ’01 Antoniolo Gattinara (though not the single vineyard) in my cellar.

  • Jason S.

    QOTD #1 – 44?

    QOTD #2 – wish I could, but getting out west isn’t that easy these days.

    Fun show. This summer is crazy busy at work, but the two CA events sound great. No commitment yet.

    Mott = 56?? Happy Birthday, regardless of age.

    Love the Librandi (yes, I’ve had it and gone back for more). And nice shade of link-it-up blue on the cake there.

    You know, I feel bad, I didn’t have anything good for a show yesterday, almost feel like I let you down.

    How about this, though: go for the Friday three-peat. New Noblaie, on the couch. You know you want to.
