Not my favourite guest (a little bit full of himself), but I have to hand it to him, one of the very few guests to actually say what he thinks about the wines. Maybe you need a super ego to have the confidence to say it as you see it. Kudos to him for that but the hat and the dodgy handshake at the end mean he has more minuses than pluses for my palate

  • Kevin was a great guest — loved that he wasn’t afraid to give his opinions. Despite his love of the Sauternes, I’d be willing to bet he’s got more of a New World palate — very common for us Bay Area kids who live close to Wine Country, I’d say — and that’s why the Cotes du Rhone wasn’t doing it for him. I used to be like that too, but my palate has shifted.

    QOTD: Tazo Awaken & Chai teas. My fav brand hands down!

    Great show. Keep it coming.

    Speaking of RosΓ©, you haven’t reviewed any wines from Provence yet according to your archive. I hear that rosΓ© is a specialty in Provence.

    Perhaps something from here:

    Nice Guest– I enjoyed his candid opinions—— also, not a fake spitted— he likes to DRINK his wine. I know gary has to spit, he tastes too many wines in a day, but many guests are obviously uncomfortable spitting, just go with the program.

    QOTD- Virgils Root Beer, Reeds Ginger Brew

    OMG Gary great show.

    Congratulations to me, that I am now FINALLY caught up (got behind a month ago) and can now officially say, once again, with authority, that I have seen each and every one of the 645 episodes of WLTV. Old school Vayniac to be sure. (oh yeah and I have every wristband…LOL!)

    Great to see Kev on the show, wish you guys had nerded out a little more. Kevin’s up for it, no??

    QOTD: Diet Cherry-Vanilla Dr. Pepper (no judging right?) yes, I know it’ll kill me. I’ll probably pull out a Sauternes this weekend though, hmm, a Chateau Filhot sounds about right…

    See ya…
