Great show Gary! One of my good buddies lives in Maryland, but used to live here in New Mexico…he wants to move back, and plant a small vineyard in a specific place, about 5000 feet of malbec, make wine, love and harmony with it.

QOTD: I think of “The Graduate” specifically that little “eep” sound that Hoffman makes.

GARY!!
Good Show…will pick the Gaudou
QOTD: Been to some parties in Montauk @ Simon’s house…so I think of those times when they are mentioned…oh what times they were!! lol
🙂

Great show, love the Malbec

Boatloads of radio singalong songs. Being a teenager.

Yo G, Gooood Thunder in da Hizzy!!! Yo Mott, what happened to Yur Giants,
me(??) Brownies really shallacked ’em last night…….

qotd: that was way back in me “hippie days”…….. 🙂

QOTD: Hello darkness my old friend. I’ve come to talk with you again.(Blackboard is blank—The Sound of Silence??)

QOTD: The Sound of Silence.
Great question. I love S&G.

QOTD— Bridge over Troubled Water

QOTD: Mrs. Robinson.

Great episode on the malbecs. I’ve only had one cahors, and to be honest, they have slipped my mind for quite a while. Time to try some more!!!!!
QOTD: Music to relax to

QOTD: Hippies

Great show, need to check out a couple of these wines!!!

QOTD: big hair

Great malbec show and the last two wines appear to be excellent QPRs as well.

QOTD: Simon & Garfunkel? Great harmonies, brilliant song writing. Classic. “I’d rather be a hammer than a nail” 🙂

BTW, Browns kicked Giants butt – what happened Mott?

QOTD……Harmony

I am a HUGE Malbec fan…from Septima…to NIcolas Catena Zapata(and the Susana Balbo’s and Luigi Basco’s in between)….will try to find a Malbec from Cahor(hopefully this one) to try…

In keeping w/ the sports talk requirements on a wine web site, may I say “YEA, GO BROWNS!!!”?
Ten million acres of Cahors to make 30 million bottles? Ten million, Gary? Really? That’s, ahem, 3 bottles per acre (times ten million). That’s an area 2 and a half times all the corn acreage in Ohio. Just a minor point. Otherwise, the various continental styles of Malbec, as other varietals, ranges from the true and honest, firm, dryish style of real wine made in Cahors, to the fruit driven, yet flabby if poorly executed, as practiced in America by agri-industrial practitioners. There IS good Malbec made in America, but I wouldn’t bother thinking you’ll find any for under $10, or even a little more. I would definately look for a known and respected producer/winery, and skip the wines w/ the kitschy/cutesy marketed names. Argentina, with high, thin air, and more old world influence in farming practices, combined with more modern production methods produces the best of both worlds.

Good Luck with the Supertasting! Sad that I couldn’t make it, but I did see Charles Smith’s favorite band, last night, the former members of Dead Moon, now called Pierced /Arrows.

QOTD: Bridge Over Troubled Water

Malbec Rocks, nice show, but dont think I will be running out to try any 10 dollar malbecs.

QOTD: I think of weak 70’s music, not my type of folk

Sound of Silence – my dad really liked that song. Malbec’s have been hit or miss for me, but tend to bring a little more value for the price than Napa cabs

QOTD: I think of the concert in Central Park. In New York. The home of the MNF-losing Giants!

I’ll keep my eyes open for cahors.

QOTD: I think of The Boxer, and I think of Mrs. Robinson who wanted everything and chose a half-witted adolescent.

QOTD: Coo…Coo…Catchu.

Love malbec!

Q-Not a lot.

QOTD: I think of the movie The Graduate and the cover Simon and Garfunkel’s Greatest Hits.

The Graduate of course.
