a MOW! cool. Who’s next – Sarah Palin? Good to let him tell his long story – it was nice to get to know him! cool show.

Only one wine? Asparagus? makes most #1’s smell funny. intense. Why was he not tasting the wines? Odd dude… Can you say “odd little dude?” haha. loved it! Viagra for wine… what a hoot! I get it, he wasn’t paid to taste… ha.

I had a great Malbec tonight with home made pizza on the deck with wife – great weather in Raleigh.
COME TO RALEIGH! Who do you want me to set you up with? smile. a wine store? nah. Savor Hospitality can host. I can get two Yadkinville wineries lining up the wines. A cooking/wine tasting with local NC wines.

QOTD: who’s your momma. hmm. funny.

Wow, I’ve got to get me some of that. Wonder how that would taste in general.

QOTD: Janet

This was like one of the late night fake-interview infomercials.

Long time watcher, first time commenting. (yes I’m one of those)
Had to step up for Mom.
Jane Kelly.
The most selfless person I’ve ever met. Anyone who knows her calls her Mom.
Ya, that kind of person.

You’ve had a run of good shows lately. Great job Gary.
Jack.

I’ll risk seasoning food with natural ingredients instead of VIGNON. After all, isn’t half the fun getting an excellent pairing of wine with food.

QOTD: Josephine. She’s been gone for nearly 40 years, but Aunt Stella and Aunt Katie have been GREAT Godmothers!!

Hey My Momma is Joanna

My wife is gonna be a new momma!!!

The show was fascinating although Hanni seemed a bit odd. Why didn’t he hit the wine??? I don’t know if i would use the herbs/spice because isn’t the fun and skill in wine tied to the pairing and matching with food. When we get to the point of not needing to pair and try new stuff then the art might be lost.

Might have to try the Gazin if i can find it since i’m in PA
This state sucks!!

my mother is a saint..Saint Elsie and My fathers Princess….. she just lost her Prince today….RIP Ralph B. Stevens…..LOve You Mom….and I will miss you dearly Dad….

Love Howard

QOTD: Roseanne aka “Momma Smurf”.

Good show, I was a little worried about the personality but Hanni grew on me.

Really interesting show.

QotD: My Mom is Kathleen.

WOW. Really interesting stuff. I’ve learned a bit about umami and I’m very interested in the neuroscience behind it. Very cool show. Thanks.

Gary & Chris & Tim- THANKS! so interesting, VERY helpful and educational!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been waiting for this episode since I mentioned having Tim Hanni on this show in January! I’m so excited that you got him to come on!!!! So cool!! Too bad you did decide to pour him some juice. I’m glad he didn’t take it. The guy is A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!

Gary & Tim, The Budometer really struck a chord with me!!! Love this test and really explains my hyper-sensative tastes!!!!

Cool stuff! Have read about super tasters and think I might be one. Guess I will find out.
QOTD: My mom is “My mom”, the one and only I have and always have had and always will have.

Great Show!!!

Cool guest. I’m interested in trying his product now.

QOTD: My momma’s name is Amal.

–RH

Nice commercial. I wish Tim luck with the product. Gary, you were like that masked magician who gives away all of David Blaine’s secrets when you pulled out the BS statement. Is there a Master of Asparagus?

QOTD: My momma is awsome!!!! She broke her ass as a waitress who also cooked kick ass dinners (rice and peas with chicken cutlet my all time fave to raise 2 kids and for that im for ever in her debt.

good scientific show. I tried it with some salt and a little lemon powder and it works as well. I would like to get some of this though.

QOTD: Barbara Dion

that was really interesting, because i am a science nerd.
qotd: my mother is susan

qotd: my mom’s anne — and yes, I love my momma

I liked this episode better the second time around — good but not great. It kinda leaves a bitter aftertaste in my mouth, like a woolly suit coat. I liked the discussion on food science, especially when Hanni told us how to replicate his product (salt + acidity). While this episode had a nice attack and good mid-palate, that all-too corporate finish just isn’t doing it for me…84 pts.

Interesting…loved the direct question. Is it BS? Gotta respect Tim though. He didn’t shy away from answering that one. I found the early stuff really fascinating – taste buds & hyper-tasters, etc. Not so much w/ the vignon, but it did make for a good discussion. Expanding our thought process.
Mix it up Gary. Keeps us wondering what’s next.

The guest was interesting, loved to see it. I went and took the test halfway through, after hearing the spiel, and I scored as a sensitive taster, but I think maybe I was too self-censoring, or my palate is too wide. I definitely take my coffee with cream, almost always, but not to quite the level where i dump a bunch out. I always seem to have the problem where I don’t have enough room for my cream, but I have had occasions where I have had too much room.

Alcohol: Single-Malt Scotch/Irish Whiskey/Single Barrel Bourbons, Gin or Vodka and Tonic/Rum and Cokes. Kind of eclectic, but there it is.

Going to have to ask my mother about when she was pregnant with me now.

Very cool, awesomely interesting.

I think this was one of the best episodes of WLTV. Really instructional and an eye opening experience. Two thumbs up!

Gary, This is your best quote Ever:
Tim: “There are about 279 Masters of Wine in the World.” Gary: “So, you’re like a JEDI. You are a JEDI!”
That is hilarious man. something totally unexpected. What great quick thinking.
Also, I’m not sold on the Vignon powder, but if I happen to ever see it around I may pick up a small bottle to try it out.
