    Good show Gary. You certainly went the extra mile to show the contrast in color between the two wines, lol. Also… very good guest, I loved her, she was very charming.

    QOTD: My dream job is to be the CEO of one of the faceless vineyard-owning corporations you two mentioned. Hehe.

  • Groovy show Gary Veeeeeeeeeeeeeee! She was a fun guest, and her excitement from having been on Fronsac, helping with the crush and living the life, shows big time.

    QOTD – I would like to be President of the United States of America and reverse the socialistic path our nation is on, blindly following a man, and his anti-American, anti-Constitutional agenda, they really know nothing about, but I don’t think I could get enough done in a day for it to be a “dream”… ๐Ÿ˜‰

    So…. that said, I would like to be one of the judges on “Iron Chef America”!

    Okay delete my last one, I’m drinking (sorry)…QOTD I wouldn’t mind flying a fighter jet, so a Fighter Pilot!

  • EtotheC

    yaaaay!!! Badgers + Bordeaux = the BEST wine pairing ever (WI is my alma mater in case you weren’t sure). QOTD: as much as we all knock ’em, being a wine critic wouldn’t suck.

    Fantastic episode. Loved the guest, loved the rocks, loved the extreme lengths that you went through to get the shot of the different colors in the wines.

    Oh, and for all of menfolk who found yourself fawning for Kristen–you should know that she also plays the flute brilliantly and makes an excellent beer biscuit. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Nice show, very natural and laid back. QOTD: Maybe not my dream job, but something that would be awesome for a day: Ice cream taste tester

    QOTD: I guess working at a winery in the fermentation room. I am a biochemist/science nerd and i love my eukaryotes that give us wine.

    I just watched an episode from a couple of weeks ago. Gary, you said you would do a Michigan wine show. Should I email some wineries and help get the ball rolling. Wonderful job Kristin, but I am a spartan and I am not able to appreciate badgers. Sorry, but brilliant job.

    I really enjoyed the show. Your guest brings a fresh perspective and good knowledge. She seems like an intriguing person. I wish her the best of luck in her promising career. I would enjoy hearing more about her experiences making wine in France.

    My dream job: being a professional bon vivant. How about being someone who is independently wealthy and restores great chateaux situated on the Loire river while dabbling a good bit in wine. Mix in making some sort of positive contribution to society, and I think that is whom I would like to be.

    cool episode, anything that makes me think of moving to France is great by me.

    QOTD: Adventure Guide/Sommelier/Cage fighter!

    Very nice episode. You’re a natural, Kristen! I can see you hosting a wine program: Maybe “Wine School TV” or perhaps “This Old Winery”? ๐Ÿ™‚ (I’m not kidding about you being host of a wine program, though!)

    QOTD: If it were only for 24 hours, I’d take a break from my daily dream job(s) and either drive a Formula One race car or ride in a steeplechase.

  • Hey What were the results of the suggestions for future show topics? Where any decisions made? Just curious.

    My dream job would be having Alfred Hitchcock’s job from 1949 to 1965…or owning a restaurant from which I did not (necessarily) have to make a living (Preston Sturges…Robert Deniro) but just got to surf the vibe. I have hypothesized that my Catholic middle school basketball coaches – in their failure to transform my blinkless enthusiasm but (then) non-comprehension of the game into something more, denied my generation their ‘other’ Steve Kerr (unstoppable jump shot as long as no one came anywhere near me)…But, honestly, in terms of freedom, fulfillment, daily good eats and inspiring companionship…my current job isn’t too bad.

  • jason carey

    Lets be honest.. you always say to trust your palate. 2002 is not a terrible vintage. its just not great.
    As many people say . trust the winemaker more than the vintage
