..if your buying im flying

You say Tuscany, I say pasta (not sure why ;)).

Nice show. Like the “giddyness”.

wines in show don’t match the wine listed as tasted?

AOTD: Oven (?)

PS – Who has the job of cutting the cheese. That would be the life!

QOTD: You say Tuscany I think sour, funny, wired but good wines exp. with food…

QOTD:
You say Tuscany
I say Show me your Olives, Grapes and Beautiful Architecture.

Good focus on the wines! I was very enthusiastic when gary started the show with the introduction of the pecorino (cheese), it seems he was not that in to it? Maybe he did like the cheese but where to focus on the wines to go a little bit deeper in to the cheese. Try the pecorino with some honey, that is delicious!

QOTD: Hope to see you there, at the end of september in the vineyards for grape harvest.
My father, brothers and me go every year to italy for an active vacation to friends in SanGimignano who have a vineyard.

thanks for the tuscan nerd-pisode…unfortunate enough that it wasn’t superb.

When you say Tuscany, I say, “Baby, pack up…we’re going on a road trip!”

Gary,

Bruce is like a $200 bottle of wine. You think its all hype and overpriced but then when
you experience it you get the nuances and understand its value.If your going to diss any
band from NJ please make it Bon Jovi from now on.

QOTD – The maestro said there are no places available there. In all of Tuscany…

Great show… always have liked the STs… found the Felsina at a local shop… can’t wait to try it…

QOTD: Diane Lane… ohhhhh, baby!!!

Thanks for clarifying the whole “Super Tuscan” thing. For some reason, I always had some weird image in my head of a wine bottle with a cape, and I never bothered to educate myself out of it.

QOTD: Hills and villas and beautiful Italian ladies.

TUSCANY…MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT IN CHICAGO…ESPECIALLY THE ONE ON TAYLOR ST !!

As you were describing grape breakdown of the Ornellaia, as soon as I heard the 6% and that flicker in your eyes I KNEW the words PETIT VERDOT were coming! I have to admit even when you describe a wine as like eating an action figure dipped in dirt and bird poop, you say it so enthusiastically that it makes me want to try it anyway!

Congrats on 700, keep em’ cominng!

Gary,

I’m new to the show and am trying to catch up. My boss has been on a two-week vacation, so I’ve logged some serious Thunder Show time. Question: Does Mott like anything??? Dude dissed the sake guy…hates the nose on all the wines lately…maybe he needs a hug.

QOD: Honeymoon. Florence & Siena with a day in Montalcino. Great trip. I love the wines of that region. My first region of true wine obsession.

Pecorino and Tuscan wine is still my favorite pairing of all time, I wish you had talked about the cheese a little more. But maybe that’s just because I’m hungry.

I’d be excited to see some $10 and under wines next week.

QOTD: I say “Americans”. The only place in Italy I heard English being spoken on a regular basis, and usually loud, obnoxious English at that. You’re right about how much us Americans love that place.

That last wine was messing with ya huh Gary!! 🙂

QOTD: I think of super tuscan wines. And possibly a wine region I havent tasted from yet. The prices tend to get up there it seems for a super tuscan.

Way out of my price point but interesting show. Especially appreciate the Professor VG time at the end to explain what the heck a Super Tuscan is. Even more then pulling the average cost down on the show bring back the education. I love the fun shows but it was the learning that brought me in in the first place.

QOTD: You say Tuscany, I say muscany? Seriously, what first comes to mind it Brenough’s(sp?) Much Ado. Not even sure if that is where it was filmed but that is what it made me think of.

When you say Tuscany I say wine! Now, just for shits and giggles (unless it is too late) lets try the wine yo did not like after they have been open for a day or two. That would be fun!!

QOTD-Italian whores

I really love your shows.
This one was very nice.
I adore super tuscans. Have some in my cellar.

Tracy, Guado al Tasso is indeed awesome.

#1 brought the thunder and #3 just about brought tears…
who cut the cheese?

QOTD: One of our dogs, Mitchie is part Maremma. She is a great pal.

I ‘ve been more then 20 times to Tuscany. In summer and in winter.
When I say Tuscany;
I used to say: If God exists – I say if – then Paradise is in Tuscany.
I used to say that. Since three year I know that Paradis is not in Tuscany but in California. And they make also great wines overthere.

Tell that new intern to get it together and match up the right wines with links next time. And oh yea intern go get me another cup of coffee. Free labor just isn’t what it used to be.
