    Kick Ass! I was so pumped up to watch this one. Ohio in the Hizzouse! Some friends and I just finished visiting a notable winery on the North coast and has a fantastic riesling and a white blend that kicked some A on the aromatics. However, I’m still waiting for a killer red made from Ohio grapes.. I hope you can find one for part two of the Ohio episodes!

    QOTD: Being an Ohioan there’s a lot… but first is the football fans (at lest 80% of sports fanaticds’ favorite sport here is football). Second would have to be great bourbon and scotch prices!

    Favorite MEMORY of Ohio (at least one of them): WMMS, the voice of the buzzard (ok, it’s been a loooooong time ago – early to mid ’70s) out of Cleveland.

    Always like to learn something new about wine, and this show did just that. As I never drank a wine from Ohio, the show gave a good intro to the possibilities. And yes I’ve tasted baby powder in wine before. As I recall it was a Pikes Riesling – baby powder and mothballs, to be exact – yummy -NOT!

    More shows on some of the other 46 would be great (I know you’ve done a few already).

    Great show which reminded me of my first exposure to wine back in 1990 while in college in Oxford, OH where a wine store had wine of month club. It opened my taste buds to new flavors in wine and was a great way to compare impressions with friends. There was a geography of wines class at the college (Miami University) that was always especially popular. QOTD The little college towns like Oxford and Gambier (Kenyon College) are very unique and quite a change of pace from California.

    O-H-I-O, Go Bucs!, Gary very cool doing wines from my home state. As you know been watching the show from Day 1. Need to give big ups to the best of Ohio. Here Goes. Best wine maker in the state is Andy Troutman of Troutman winery in Shreve, Oh. Bar none he is the rock star of Ohio. I have been to every winery in the state and he and his wines are No1 ( Just like the Buckeyes). Next big shout out the Maryanne Franz of the Cleveland Wine School. Gary you need to look her up in the future. She is the founder of the school, teaches the WSET program of which I hold Avanced Cert. Great show and thanks for the OHIO wines

  • QOTD: I was born there!

  • QOPD: shoutouts to Case Western School of Medicine in Cleveland! 🙂

    Gary! I dropped by my old apartment to pick up my mails (I’ve recently moved) and I was SO surprised to find the 4th generation wristband in the mail!!! I don’t even know how I qualified to get one but, thank you so much! When I got home after work today, I burnt my rice and set off the smoke alarm, then there was a 3 hour-long brown out. But, the wristband made my day!

    I moved to Cleveland a year ago and I’m pretty embarrassed to say that I haven’t tried any wine from Ohio. I should get on it soon.

    Good that you have your toys on the show. Even with wines brining no THUNDER and a heavy OAK MONSTER you can have fun and a great time.

    QOTD: My favorite thing about Ohio is that it is a place I still need to visit. It good to also taste different countries every now and then.
