Good show GV. Enjoy the “nerd” shows but keep it entertaining, also. I had a 2006 URBAN RIESLING.

I really like how the shows are going. I have NEVER even heard of these wines and I am excited to find them.

Regarding the web 2.0 comment from one of the listeners – DON’T EVER STOP THAT!! That is how I ended up becoming a Vayniac in the first place! I never even drank wine before I watched the show…..and now I have tried many kinds of wine since becoming an avid listener. Its all about expanding your pallet!!

Just keep doing what your doing.

I LOVE THE NERD STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great show!

Gary fumbles the ball, but not the wine! (He does fumble accents however)

It’s Franssssssois. That’s why you have the dingy under the “c”, ç.

QOTD: I had a Château Simard, St. Émilion, 1998, which was great! It still has a lot of potential for the coming years. (I still have 3 bottles tucked away…)

Keep up the good work!

QOTD: Pinot Evil Pinot Noir. $6.99 and decent at that price. Used the B.A.G.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAW, Burgundy in da Hizzy!!!!! 🙂 Can’t wait to watch this one!!!!!

Thanks for the show, u big freaky nerd. I definately have NOT ever heard anyone, anywhere, or anytime talk about Santenay Wines

I was a little dispointed on the wine observations u made,
bit I will take the 06 St Francois Santenay Rouge Burgundy for a ride.

GV: Please answer this question yourself.
What did drink this weekend while yougrilled the skate?

QOTD:
Ah the weekend…..

Friday
Homemade pizza with a St Francis Claret…. a nice start

and good music

Life’s Good. Bless you and your Family.

Yo Chris F., It’s Rumblin’, Stumblin’, Bumblin’…….. 🙂

good show…nerd power!

QOTD: Though not exactly this weekend, I had two bottles from Domaine de Mas de Libian. One was the ’08 Vin de Petanque, and the other was the ’07 Bout d’Zan. Both were quite good, especially after some decanting.

Love the variety among episodes.

QOTD: Stoli vodka w/ pink lemonade and splash of cranberry/pomegranate juice

Good shoe keep it up Gary V!!!

QOTD: 4 heinikens 4 budlights 2 jagerbombs that made me throw up like i was 16!!! ha ha ha

LOVE the pickle juice/Chinon connection. I find dill pickle in allot of Chinon and a few domestic (Cab Franc) when they don’t add any other varietals to it.
QOTD: 07 Solar de Randez Rioja at a B-Day bbq for a friend.

QOTD: Dogfish Head 60-min IPA

QOTD: Dogfish Head 60-min IPA

Thanks for wanting to keep the show fresh and interesting. It’s appreciated

QOTD; Verdicchio

QOTD: honestly, I had a Stella Artois while watching some local jazz, but I’d like to mention one I had a while ago: Porta do Fontelo 2004, a portugese red wine that tasted fabulously silky.

QOTD: Moshin Pinot Noir

Love the show! I watch to learn and learn I do!
I have recently gotten into Italian, especially Nebbiolo. Even watching some of your past episodes. I am so glad you no longer have those obnoxious comment pop ups.
What about a show explaining the difference between a Nebbiolo, Barolo and Barberesco since they are all the Nebbiolo grape. I don’t get it.

Thanks for the time you spend doing this show. I appreciate Lizzy and Misha letting you keep this on your already full plate.

Zaca Mesa 2003 Syrah. Been sitting on 3 bottles for a while. Drank them on beach in Newport, California. Seriously delicious. Oh and Friday night was an Andrew Murray Esperance that was fantastic.

Gary,

Good show, nice and nerdy
QOTD: Did not have any wine but did have a Blue Moon at Lucky Strike in MI where a Amazing band was playing.

Mott: That was a Brett Favre pass… oooh those were fightin’ words!!!

Gary, I’m a huge fan of grilling, the London Broil from Citarella is excellent, tender, perfect with a bottle of the 2006 Dusky Goose.

QOTD: I appreciate the nerd shows quite a lot. I drank 2006 Dusky Goose, damn good bottle of wine.

Love you Gary. and God bless little Misha. And my cat Jupiter meows in your general direction.

That was hardly nerdy! You can go nerdier than that! Details, man, details!

QOTD 2008 Château Bélingard Bergerac Rosé
I gave it an 87; have you noticed 2008 French pinks are .5 or 1% higher in alcohol this year than usual?

Hey Gary,

Question of the day: I drank a Joose (energy blend + 9.9 alcohol) and a Corona…

I really want to try that first white you had, Domaine Vincent Beaurepaire Santenay – so once I get that free $50 😉

Thanks for this episode, I’m learning tons. I’m actually gonna bbq some steaks today, so my question for you: What type of (red I assume) wine would go good with bbq steak?

Good episode. Although, I didn’t really notice how most of the other episodes were any less nerdy. I suppose it may be just in terms of the relative obscurity of the wines.

Anyhow,

QOTD:

2007 Rosemount Shiraz – Australia (admittedly bought because the bottle had a square bottom)

2007 Jackson-Triggs Dry Riesling – Okanagan (as part of my independent study on Canadian Rieslings to see how well this north-climate varietal does up here)

QOTD:
Friday: a lot: Moscato d’asti, some home made beer, a cheap Spanish Merlot, a much better Barbaresco, a number of other beers, stout mostly, homemade Schnaps (that is vodka added with different herbs and given some time in the bottle)
Saturday: only a glass or two of Domain la Soumade Rasteau Cuvée Prestige 2004. Sunday: Giano Prosecco from Vinsac, and some Val de Loire Chardonnay from Domain de Lorière. The Soumade was definitely the best of the bunch.
