  • I love those wine crackers (biscuits?) for cleaning of the palate. Actually, I just eat them, they are so good. Love the Woot by the way.

    Gary, you gotta let your guest speak! Or chill out on the redbulls or something. Poor guy couldn’t get a word in edgewise…
    My QOTD: How does Chase compare to Ridge zin?

    My A to the QOTD: the only palate cleanser that really works for me is….time. A good 5 min between tastes. Everything else messes me up, except water, which doesn’t do enough.

  • This was like an Abbot and Costello episode. Deadpan and energy combine to keep it interesting. Woot is such a great concept and I saw Gary snap on the idea like “Why didn’t I think of that?!?!”. PS- love the stemless wine glasses.

    QOTD: Beleive it or not, a banana is a great palate cleanser.

    I wish woot.wine could ship to GA. I have a woot bucket (from a recent wootoff) that would be great for spitting except I don’t spit out good wine :D.
    QOTD: I’ve always wondered this too. I normally don’t clean.

  • ex-lurkdawg

    nice show.

    qotd: I don’t usually use anything unless I am tasting quite a few (maybe 15+) wines or have just had a wine with some residual sugar. Like many others, I do like bread, unflavored crackers, and/or sparkling water.

  • Sassodoro

    QOTD. Interesting question. Lately I haven’t been cleansing my palate at tastings. (So many wines, so little time.) I just try to pause for a moment. When I do cleanse, maybe a little bread.

    Awww, as one of the wine.wooters that trashed Gary during the book offering, now I feel bad.

    This was a fun episode, since I was familiar with 2 of the wines, and I’m going to be all over that woot cellars offering.

    QOTD: water.

  • QOTD – A always use a little of the next wine I’m about to try with water added! Cleans your palate better than water alone and gets your mouth slightly accustomed to the next wine.

    QOTD:

    Don’t usually cleanse my pal. If I do it’s crackers or biscuits or just water.

    PS… I was cracking up when I heard Erik trying not to laugh in the background. HA!
