  • Ha, That Manny Ramirez quote was funny.

    Nice selection of wines in this episode.

    QOTD: You say Omaha, I say: Apaches.

  • Mike in C-town

    I was exited that the episode emerged and that two wines I have at home were featured – and that never happens. I have older vintages of the Altos Las Hormigas Malbec (but the Reserva) and the volver. Less excited now about the Volver but I only paid 12 bones for it….

    QOTD: Yeee Haaa! Never been there but sounds like that type of place. Not a noble variety in sight! Cool! Keep pushing the envelope! Not that you would you put wine in an envelope even if shiping is free. You know what I mean, if not just put it down to Irish insanity.

    Quite a fine “lost” episode– AND I TOTALLY HAVE written “lipstick” in my tasting notes before! Weird! I’m absolutely on board with that descriptor.
