Solid episode in which GV asks Mott for his opinion, and then tells him what he really meant to say. Classic.

  • Thanks Gary

    Nice show. If you’re talking of seriously expanding your palate I’m just wandering when you’ll try some wines from Asia (China, Japan, Korea)?

    QOTD: What a tough one, everyone loves chicken. Too difficult so I’ll give you my favourite five ways: fried in a burger, marinated with satay sauce on a stick, roasted, in soup and sashimi.

    Cheers
    Andrew

    QOTD: Right now, I love it grilled.

    One small correction: it’s Arizonan, not ArizonIan. Awesome episode from my current state.

    QOTD: Chicken tagine & couscous.

    Call me square, but I like the old-school WLTV episodes the best: tasting a slew of wines, especially blind, free associating flavour profiles, the *majority* of the talk is about wine. Very high info QPR.

    Least favourite shows: any time there is a guest.

    I love the Mary J. rockin in the background. That look you shot at Mott when he mention Matt is a Giants fan was priceless.

    QOTD: My Mom’s Chicken Schnitzel. I know it sounds weird, but its awesome. Or Chicken and Apples from the Wine Library Fridge.

  • Anonymous

    QOTD: Favorite is fried, but due to health concerns, I usually roast it with lemon and herbs and take off the skin. Also marinated in olive-oil,herb-wine mixture and then grilled.

    a whole roasted chicken with herbs and spices cant be beat. chicken kiev aint bad either (kinda the same thing). honorable mention for any asian styles, terriyaki, bulgogi, curry… so hard to choose just one.

  • Gary,

    Love that you did a show based on one of the other 46 states. We have had very similar experience in our reviews of North Carolina Wines. Price is a big issue as well as distribution. We have found that some grapes seem to do very well here.

    I hope that would will join us one day on an episode of North Carolina Wine TV. We are happy to come to you.

    Great show.

    QOTD: Fried of course

    GV – my Dad lives in Tucson so I was excited you did the show on Arizona wines. Haven’t been to the wineries yet. I’ll try to get my hands on a Callaghan to give it a shot sometime.

    QOTD: That’s 2 chicken questions in a week! You must be eating a lot of chicken recently. I’m a HUGE fan of the Peruvian style rotisserie chicken with either fried yucca (or steak fries). There are a ton of good places in the DC area, with the best being El Pollo Rico in Arlington. DELICIOUS!!!

  • Arizona and Roy Rogers? nope. Check my Roy and Dale page: http://www.marccurtis.com/royroger.cfm

    Arizona..wine? nope, not.

    QOTD: Sichuan chicken, deeply savored with hua jiao (chinese peppers). Wow. You can’t find it in America!

  • pacw808

    QOTD: Casbah chicken & couscous (my favorite to make) or the Sonoma(?) quesadilla from a local slightly fusion mexican restaurant (chicken & apples LOL, with melted gouda and almond slices).

    Unfortunately Tennessee is stil trying to figure out what grapes do well here, versus what grapes the growers wish did well here. There’s too much rain. North Carolina is a little further along in that respect, especially western piedmont or mountains. Some decent Italian grapes growing there.

    And with the new Tennessee shipping law in effect this month, will Wine Library be purchasing a license to ship here???? Think about it.

    Nice show.

    A question. Is the Ask Gary apps in facebook and Ask WLTV page being monitored? I’m not sure how it is working but I notice no response is given to the questions asked.
