QOTD: Hmm… don’t think I’ve had a one. This one sounds interesting! Looks like a few places in California carry it. If I ever see one, I’ll pick it up.

David

QOTD: None.

QOTD….had a great wine from Transylvania a while back. I think it was called Doktor Frank Stein

QOTD: None.

QOTD for GV and other Vayniacs: If you could have one pack of cards to open, what sport, brand, and year would it be?

Fun show, really like the exploration of unknown European wines. Also, really like the sports card thing – don’t know why, but it works for me.

QOTD – Um, I used to drink a really cheap Hungarian Cab called St. Stephen’s Crown. I liked it back in the CKC day, not sure how it would go now.

Well, I had some Hungarian wine when I was in Budapest, but it was certainly nothing to write home about. Other than that, none. I gotta try some of that last wine, though, if it elicited that big of a response.

The closest thing to eastern european I’ve had is Lebanese. Which was very nice if my memory serves me right! Chateau Ksara, it was called.
Apart from that, no!
Gary- I find it hilarious how you can open these packets of sports cards and be able to name every player you see! That’s quite a skill! ; )

thank you so much!
did i mentioned how happy i am to see my wines on the show.
IN VINO VERITAS
PS they are not that pricy in Croatia,and there are some more expensive ones!

Great Show! Nice to see Gary so excited.
QOD I have never had a wine from Eastern Europe, but maybe I should seek some out.

Eccola Italian Restaurant in Parsippany, NJ on 46 has Zlatan wines on their list. I have had pretty much all of them. They swear that Plavac is not a descendant of Zinfandel but the original grape. I have never been near 93 pts on their wines but have always thought them interesting…

QOTD: A Hungarian Bulkovar (Bull’s Blood) wine that a friend brought to my house party. Maybe it was the other alcohol talking, maybe it was all the friends and the good atmosphere, but I remember it being a solidly delicious wine.

I haven’t even seen eastern european wines to date. But I don’t live in an area with tons of options and my state doesn’t allow out of state wine shipping 🙁

Excellent show. I love it when there’s a surprise in the house.

QOTD: My exposure to Eastern European wines has been limited – but I have had an *excellent* Hungarian Pinot Gris from Dunavar – one of the very few sub $10 wines that you can pick up in BC that are that well made and tasty.

Realistically though, the best wine would be a Tokaji-Aszú (Chateau Dereszla perhaps?). I don’t recall the vintage, but the wine was out-of-this-world fantastic.

Gary,
Nice show.
I do not recall ever drinking a Croatian wine,
but I have had many Tokaji’s and they were all delicious.

Gary Great episode I remember you Loving this when I was on the ustream.

QOTD:
-None = FAIL 🙁

Man I was wanting another Chianti episode so that I could tell you to get that #@$% out of here and wip out the “Waving finger” from Mutombo. Probably my favorite defender of all time.

QOTD: I would have to say a Tokaji from hungry, always a great way to end a dinner.

Waymon Tissdale may not have been the best b-baller but he plays a pretty mean bass in the jazz world.
QOTD …none

QOTD: none (yet)

Hey Gary et al

Great show as usual – I like when you do something a little off the beaten path and when you have an audience or a guest.

QOTD : Haven’t had any Eastern European wines, but I’ll be seeking them out after seeing this show ! Thanks for the enlightenment.

QOTD – None. However, this episode has peaked my interest.
