One of the greatest guest of all time…really loved this episode. I must also admit that I have been becoming a fan of Rose wines, very interesting wines, they just need to be given a chance.

qotd: Fruit and nuts with honey (pears, strawberries, walnuts)

Thanks for the fun show and guest. I love the title of her cookbook. And
I guess I’ll try a little of that Donkey and Goat during the summer.

Pretty show!

Gary kills it once again with a hot topic for the summer season.

I believe rosé to be a serious drink for hot weather.

I wouldn’t pair it with dessert however, unless it was a dark chocolate or creamy dessert without too much sugar. Sugar would up the acid.

Cool!

If you’re into Rosé wine check out http://www.rap.com . . . It’s the Rosé version of ZAP. The annual tasting is May12th in S.F.

Great show G! Love the hall as background!

good show… Quivira has always been a good Rose producer in my mind.

QOTD? I got nuthin’

Nice job Katie charming the Vayner-nation. Surprised Gary couldn’t shmooze Billy into saying hello.
I’m gonna go find the Donkey and Goat, as I’m generally unenthusiastic about rose, although I’ve had a few that really impressed me. Good what its hot, or when you need something refreshing, like when dancing. I love rose champagne though, which I find almost everyone loves, if they’re not sissys.
I had a great pairing the other night at Ubuntu in Napa:
Lightly roasted wild strawberries next to a bit of lemon verbana custard and granita (I don’t remember what flavor), paired with a rose sparkler from alsace. If that doesn’t make you smile, you need to check into therapy.

QOTD: Creme Brulle. Hey Mott, you never linked up her Twitter name. You dropped the ball, bro!

Gary, I think the word you were looking for is “compote”.

nice one. way to bring the rose episode just in time for summer.

QOTD: Some Ice cubes 🙂

Turkey meat pie. Meat pies are as close as I’ll get to dessert. Or maybe I’d use my grandma’s old recipe for dessert: beer.

Great show, I will have to give try out a few more Rose’s.

Gary, you have to try a slice of cucumber in your water… it’s a subtle freshness that does wonders!

what a fun episode. vary up beat. plus she was cute 🙂 never had rose’ and good ones to try?

I am one of those rose haters..just might give donkey and
goat a try..

I agree with BrianAF Katie was pretty hot. I even think Gary liked Katie maybe too much. When she said the thing about the big oyster I about lost it… anybody else catch that or am I just perverted?

Wow, Chad Pennington and John Denver mentioned in the same epsiode! Nice! Speaking of QB’s, Brett Farve retire already! video http://tinyurl.com/pxkxwj

I agree that Katie was charming and very sincere in her approach.
I am going to look for the Donkey & Goat rose wine.

As for a dessert item to go with rose,how about a plum and apricot tart with a little almond paste in the crust to add just a bit of sweetness? As long as you go for fruit flavors and not sweetness it should work well with the rose wine.

I usually say great show but she was a DUD! Can we see a Rose’ show with someone who is not a poser?? Its not that she knows nothing about wine because those are usually the best guests. It is that she is a fake and is supported by Billy’s cash. Very dull personality as well. I like when you have people like yourself who worked hard to get where they are eg Kevin Rose, Tim Ferris hell even the great one! not this chick with who is all of the sudden a food critic…sorry def not a great episode.

Can we have another Rose’ show plz?

@ NY Pete: CASH

who is this billy everyone is talking about?

QOTD: if i am drinking rose with dessert, it probably is dessert.

Pink love, always nice to hear of a decent rose to try without having to shell out 30+ dollars on Tempier.

QOTD: cheese plate, thats what goes with rose

Fun guest. Too bad I caught on to Top Chef in Season 2.

QOTD: I have a (rose colored) dessert I call cherry salad that uses canned cherry pie filling, crushed pineapple, sweetened condensed milk, & Cool Whip- that may be interesting to add a dash of a rose to… but it’s very sweet, so I don’t know how mose roses would pair with it (since I prefer dry roses vs white zins which I am not a huge fan of).

crazy cameo from billy joel – had to rewind a few times to make sure i saw what i saw…not the best show on wine library tv, particularly since i don’t like rose, but definitely a nice house…and that’s gotta count for something.

Quivira is very close to me and they have always made very good Zins in my opinion, very good value at around 20 bones. I didn’t even think they did rose. I had better go visit again soon.

Well I can agree with some of the comments previous to mine. Not the best guest but not the worst by far. All and all though BORING. That place sounded like a cave and looked it.

Qotd: Did she mean recipe with rose in it or pair with rose?

Her husband is turning 60 tomorrow and she’s not even 30. Gold digger and cradle robber. Whatever, love follows no logic.

Gary you need to drink water. Look up how being even mildly dehydrated can reduce your brain functions. The body will shut off the cognitive sections of the brain in order to keep the lungs breathing and the heart pumping. If you experience feelings like depression, worrying, isolation, not following the content of a conversation, being dehydrated can cause and/or make them worse. If you ever want to own the Jets…drink more water. 8 glasses a day has been debunked, but you got to consume more than a couple glasses a day for sure. My dad is 75 and he was getting to where he seemed like he was 85 0r 90 for a while until he had to go into the hospital for a week. During that time he was re hydrated and by the end he was back to being the dad I knew and not the frail wreck he’d become. Just some FYI to help you keep it together for the future.

Oprah is a load of shit.

Sorry Kahuna and others but “billy” can have her, oh he already does. All teeth and eyebrows. I’m sorry that was mean.

Answer to Katie’s question of the day would be either strawberry short cake or Ruhbarb pie.
