    QOTD: Home. I grew up there. And the College World Series.

    So, I’ve always wondered what exactly is mean’t by “extracted.” Is this just a description, or a literal term from a part of the wine making process?

    Qotd: I use to think of Steak and sometimes Poker [Though I like Texas Holdem better].
    But now I’m always going to think of Lipstick…

    Great to see the Malbec do well. I worry about you preaching the Portugal and Argentinian wines, but they’re still such great values.

    QOTD: Pazzzz

  • QOTD: You say omaha I say steaks.

    On a side note, i was trying this chard at a resturaunt and there was a flavor profile that I couldnt figure out, so a friend of mine, who doenst know much about wine tried it and was like.. dude, thats a sharpie marker. Tasting it again sure enough, the wine tasted like a sharpie marker tip that had been dipped in olive juice for an hr. And the finish was like licking a cheap pine box. But, i guess thems the ropes when yer trying evertying.

    Not a big fan of the live shows with crowds. You seem to be more quirky and spontaneous when it’s just you and Mott, and maybe a random distraction in the office.
