Can I pay for the FoodNetwork Events with Funnymoney?

QOTD: Brunello

701 episodes, and i think, the first time u mention Springsteen. Let the record show that I am a huge fan-you’re a jersey boy-go get his ass on the show…or Little Steven at least!!!!!

QOTD: San Gimi

Woah! Dissing Bruce! I can’t believe it! You’re up there but he’s still the #1 Jersey Boy. If you forced me to choose between never drinking another bottle of wine and never hearing another Springsteen song, I’d definitely give up the wine.

Great show. I haven’t had the best luck choosing Super Tuscans, either. QOTD – Chianti.

QOTD: When you say Tuscany, I say, “fusscany” – Great show!

Great episode. Love the Super Spray of Saliva. Congrats for entering the 700’s.

QOTD: When I hear Tuscany, the first thing that comes to mind is Guillaume du Fay and the wonderous motet he wrote for the consecration of the Duomo in Florence entitled “Nuper Rosarum Flores”. I admit that first and foremost, I am a music nerd.

Also, is the only thing that differentiates super tuscans the price point?

I like the cheese pairing.

QOTD: Beautiful place where I had an excursion where I hiked through the hills of the Carlo-Rossi villa and ended with a home cooked meal in one of their barns and, of course, a glass of their Chianti. Quite memorable.

Cheers!

P.S. Remember: No Jets players have ever “panned out.”

The first couple of minutes of tasting the last wine were classic. Your facial expressions were hilarious. Good show!
QOTD: Chicken Liver

do they call them Super Tuscans in Italy or Tuscany?

QOTD: You say Tuscany I say The Palio of Siena

Super Tuscans have been appearing in the local catalogs lately, specially from Vistorta and Sassicaia, and yes they’re expensive ( or at least they have higher prices )

QOTD: When you say Tuscany, I say: Medici.

I say ,Great wines. Sassicaia, Tignanello,Solaia,Summus,Excelsus, should I go on?

QOTD:
Dante Alighieri

Nice show to followup a great northern Tuscany dinner I had last night.

QOTD: Wines that I cannot afford.

Gary,
Fun show. Did you notice that the names of the wines you had on the show didn’t match the names printed on the bottom of the screen?

QOTD- when I think tuscany I think future romantic vacation with the hubby! And hopefully a chance to learn traditional Italian cooking!

Thanks Gary!

Great show Gary, but I agree that it’s time for some value episodes again! Bring on the next J.Verdeens!

QOTD: Boar

QOTD: I say Tignanello (my all time favorite) and great food.

QOTD: Under the Tuscan Sun….

Loved the Vocab lesson–houligan, brouhaha. Not sure about the spelling??

nice wine nerd breakdown at the end there
i haven’t had any of these ‘super tuscans’ – so qotd: i look at you blankly

I like this episode. I am a big lover of the Supers. I remember drinking the Sassicaia, Ornelia and Tignanello all the time 10-12 years ago. They were very good back in the day and worth the money. But you are right, they have gone down in quality and up in price. Not good.

QOTD: You say Tuscany, I say…book it Dan O!!! Let’s go… Montecatini baby!

QOTD: Florence
