Baby Oak Monster would have been an amazing Halloween costume.

Right now, I’m drinking black cherry soda. Wine, something new every time I go to the store.

Eeek…you sounded like you had just been surprised by a large insect there. Congrats on the jets…I have my head in the sand from the Raiders’ 77 yard output against the FALCONS.

QOTD: I’m about the open a bottle of Deloach Zin…but tequila roared its ugly head over the weekend.

#1- got enough Jets schwag?!

#2- I like the “sniffy sniff”…and the oak baby too!

QOTD: Bodegas Aguirre Petit Sirah.

QOTD: Lately, I’ve been enjoying a Merlot based Medoc (2003 Chateau Rollan de By) with heavier foods. When it gets colder out, I tend to pan fry steaks more often – and this is one of my favorite combinations (CRdB with a decently thick fillet is divine!)

QOTD — nothing today (dentist visit), but I did try one of the election pack this weekend. I look forward to see what you make of your bottle

Congrats on the big win GV, hopefully those Favre pick 6s don’t bite you in a big game. Baby Oak Monster needs to be the next t-shirt.

QOTD: Farnito 2001 carpineto 100% cab sauvignon, very very good wine. =]

I’ve been enjoying St Veran wine and I haven’t even browsed through the Chablis section.

QOTD: I am expanding my palate and trying new things. I enjoy the geeky nerdy lessons. My go-to wine changes every few months. This month is Rhone month, Lirac, Gigondas.

QOTD: had my first Roero last night and my first wine from Sardinia – both great!

Great episode as always!

QOTD: Rustenberg John X Merriman 2005, extremely elegant bordeaux blend from South Africa.

Check out any Chablis from Vincent Dauvissat, truly awesome.

QOTD: For some reason I’ve been on a syrah kick lately – Lagier-Meredith, Turkey Flat, etc.

want the green wristband…

Nice show Vayner.

QOTD: 2007 Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc

Thanks for the educational show. I’m just entering the land of wine geeks and I appreciate when you throw in some facts about wine regions and history.

QOTD: Last night had a 2006 Schlink Haus Dornfelder.

Getting ready to do a tasting for my sister wedding. trying to find a red and white they like.

QOTD Martinsancho 07 verdejo

Hey Gary,

Great show again!!! I’m a huge Chardonnay fan, looking forward to your California’ Chardy show in the coming days….

QOTD ‘I had a Rufus Stone Heathcote 2006 Shiraz on the weekend, it was an absolute cracker!!!!Get some and have a taste, it won’t let you down.

cheers from down under!!!

QOTD: 2005 A.S. Kiken Red Table wine Diamond Mountain. Yummy.

QOTD: Recently my go to wine has been 2005 Capolan Merlot. It normally retails from $9.99-13.50 but for some reason Trader Joe’s is selling it here on the West Coast for $3.99. I probably would think that it was a pretty good drink (better after 3-4 hrs of air) for $10 but for $4 it is an absolute steal. I have recently also had an 2006 Ancient Peaks Zinfandel $13.99 that was KILLER. Kicking myself that I didn’t try it sooner so that I could have bought more than the 3 initial bottles. The 491 cases went real quick.

Great Show!!!

Ive been away for a week but now Im back in the swing of things and will rewatch and comment on all the missed shows.

QOTD: Recently been drinking — Red: 2005 Ghost Block
White: Alpha Omega Sauvignon Blanc or Treana white blend

Gary, you had my mouth watering describing these wines.

I hate to have to give the Jets props since they beat my Bills, but I have to. The AFC East is going to be interesting these next several weeks.

QOTD: I tried my first Albarino last evening with Mussels. Wonderful. And this coming from a Red wine guy. Just goes to show…expand your palate!!! Now on to Chablis.

OK…… I get it now. By the size of that wallaet I now know why you love it when the Jets win. You Bet on them!!! No wonder!!!

Well, now that I figured that out….because you know how NOT interested in sports I am…. but I do liek to gamble. I meean why else would somebody go so crazy when a football team wins a game.

QOTD: I’m not drinking Belle-Vue….because you ran out and I can’t get anymore. So I am drinking ‘BARRUA’ a Wine by Agricola Punica Sardinia….thanks to Ian. Now that’s a wine you should have on the show.

Fantastic! Love Chablis, and nice work with the knowledge at the beginning. You know I like that. You didn’t talk about the 2007 Chablis, though! 2007 is suppose to be a FANTASTIC vintage in Chablis (perhaps the best in decades)… Already have a few cases on pre-order. Mr. Meadows is loving on them… (gave one point lower score to a Premier Cru I ordered at $20 than the Grand Cru you tasted today) And I love how you can get Grand Cru wines for $40-60 all day long, and I mostly prefer these to Grand Cru whites from the Cote d’Or at 4 times the price.

QOTD: Drinking 2004 Amarone! Galloni blew up the Bussolo Vigneto Alto which I have some bottles of… good stuff coming down the pipe…

Nice show GV i appreciate the wine nerd stuff…I was someone who thought Chablis was just the big jug of wine….

QOTD: looking for new things every day….
