  • Hey Gary.

    Great show. I like the focus on lesser known areas and regions.

    QOTD: This past weekend…

    Friday: Vodka Gimlet(s) with Ketel One Vodka

    Saturday: 2006 Coppola Director’s Cut Cabernet Sauvignon

    Love the Lindsay Lohan reference.

    QOTD-
    Stone IPA, Bridlewood Viognier, coors light and margaritas w/fresh lime juice & patron.

    Gary — nice fumble!!! Just like Tiki Barber before they corrected his grip on the ball. Ahman Green, NOTORIOUS for fumbling. Remember when Kurt Warner played for the Giants? Fumble City, USA.

  • QotD: Masi Campofiorin Ripasso 2005.
    It’s been a favorite of mine & my GF for a year or so. I hope you’ve tasted it. Affordable & so worth it. Really enjoyed the recent Sake episode, btw. It’s been 86+ (f) here all last week so I’ve mostly been drinking water, otherwise. πŸ™‚

  • Zac Weiss

    Great episode, keep up the nerd, amp it up for that matter; I’d be down!
    QOTD, had pimento (http://www.miamz.fr/tag/boisson-piment/) for the first time, tasted really good, with that spicy kick on the end that lingered for a nice long while. The night ended with straight gordon’s, which I appreciated much less… Some delicious beer though (I’m trying all the amber beers I can find) page 24 and ninkasi (the french brewery, not the oregon one.) Ninkasi amber is probably my favorite beer out the the dozens I’ve been tasting as of late.

    In the Parking lot of the Oakland A’s game Saturday night I drank some Pacifico Cerveza. I love those for a Tailgating. Then inside was A’s Beer Fest and I had one Kona Longboard Island Lager and one Trumer Pils. Let’s not talk about the game, I’m a SF Giants fan anyways.

    Sunday Evening I had a 2006 Anthill Farms Syrah “Windsor Oaks Vineyard”. Good for my palate.

    Great show nerd it up. It’s is always fun. Blind tasting to come. Right?

    HEY Gary! Dare you to read my comment.

  • Thanks for a nerdy show spreading some knowledge. I’m not the biggest french wine enthusiast, so i haven’t discovered Santenay yet. But might come some day.
    QOTD: The next Bottle to pop, when i’m in the mood, will be the

    Diemersdal Estate, Privat Collection, 2005, South Afrika, Dourbanville.

    a quit impressing “Bordeaux-Blend” from SA (Cabertnet, Merlot, Cabernet Franc)

  • Like the nerdy. I don’t drink a lot of Santenay as the tastes are not classic burgundy to me. I like Chinon so the more inexpensive one may be appealing and I know I’ve never had white Santenay. This weekend was mostly Frexinet
    Cava with one Montepuciano de Abbruzo bot I don’t know who made it as it was not my bottle.

  • QOTD: Tazo China green-tips green tea.

    Gary, it would be really cool if you brought a tea expert on your show and sampled some killer teas. Think of all the varitions: hot, cold, w/ w/o milk or sugar, leaf based, fruit/flower based. It would be nerdy, educational, and very unique.

  • John Farrin

    QOTD: Fri. shared a 2005 Capolan merlot; Sat. shared a 2006 Descendientes De Jose Palacios Bierzo Petalos; Sun. had a couple of glasses of 2006 Loma Gorda.

  • Ned Hoey

    You call that nerdy? This is Burgundy! I gotta call it like I see it, this show scored low for me. Not the topic but the content. No background on the producers or the sites or the difference between ’05 and ’06 in Burgundy, etc.

    I’m surprised that pronouncing Francois was a problem, pretty common name in FRANCE. πŸ˜‰

  • Bravo, thanks for keeping the content top notch and the education coming.

    What is the “Tuck Rule” when throwing crumpled-up comments for WLTV?

    QITD: No wine, just a bunch of beers (was in a boat for much of the weekend): Labatt Blue Light, Sam Adams Summmer, Sam Adams Cherry Wheat (like dessert); Miller Light, Corona, Sierra Navada Pale Ale. Liquor: Cuervo Gold Tequilla and some shots of washington apple somewhat bought.

  • hollisdevillo

    good stuff gary. like the nerd info and shenanigans. my fiancee and i had an edelweiss snowfresh beer and a brooklyn black chocolate stout. and an inniskillin (okanagan bc) malbec which was good. compared to cahors and argentina, it was somewhere in the middle with fruit and earthiness, with some great tannins, nice chocolate and tobacco, and good fresh fruit. especially on the finish, which after about 2 min my mouth felt like i just bit into a fresh raspberry. that was the kicker for that wine.

    QOTD: I had Takara plum Sake, Black wing Pinot, and Blue Heron (beer).

    I was surprised to hear you tell the viewers who Misha is since you have mentioned it in past episodes so many times. But it’s a great thing because it shows you’re always open and encouraging to new viewers!

    Rogue Brewery Shakespeare stout,Delicious!!
