    QOTD: Celtics baby!

    I absolutely love Vouvray and agree that Chenin Blanc is totally underrated. South Africa makes some excellent Chenin……Ken Forrester being one of the top producers. I was psyched to see you taste the Tradition because I have a bottle. I just might have to pop that soon and see if I think it’s as great as you did. That would be a great case buy and I want to get my hands on some before WL sells all of their inventory.

  • #1 Michigan State Spartans – all sports
    #2 Detroit Red Wings, followed by the other Detroit sports teams (and yes, this includes the lousy Lions)
    #3 Anyone who plays Notre Dame

    What a great resource you have created. I am a long time lurker who you finally pulled in with the QOTD. My answer: University of Michigan Wolverines, any and nearly all sports, any time. GO BLUE.

    QOTD: WE ARE…………..PENN STATE

    My family is getting ready for Fantasy Football (NFL football). The kids and I joined public leagues and my husband plays in a league with some friends. Fun for all. As for NFL, we are supposed to be Eagles fans but we are fans of wherever our fantasy team players play.

    Nice shirt….again….. Pumping out shows huh?!

  • Haha, nice, another varietal that I’ve never heard of that is delicious! Can’t wait to try some soon.

    QOTD: Easiest QOTD for me ever. Raiders.

  • ErieWineGuy(Glenn Chojnacki)

    This show absolutely pumps me up to try Vouvray’s again. I can’t wait.

    In fact, I feel like going to the store and waiting all night for the doors to open to try these wines.

    I have a Friday evening wine tasting with a friend of mine, and I know what I’ll include in it this week.

    Great show! I could just taste those wines right along with you. Thanks!

  • I liked your opening, you must not be watching wrestling these days, ugh? haha.

    speaking of honey – how about an episode on sparking meads? They are hitting well here in NC.

    QOTD: Anything but f’ing football! man!

    Thanks for doing a white wine show. I’m definitely going to have to hunt down some Vouvrays and give them a whirl.

    QOTD: For football, the Lions. =)

  • QotD: 49ers, Giants, Kings

  • Chenin Blancs always taste to me at least like Lemon Merengue pie or KeyLime pie, don’t know why really. I’ve tried Vouvray and didn’t like it that much, it was quite light for my palate (although it had a bit of a kick).
    I think the Le Mont would be better for me. How to find it though…

    QOTD: My favorite team of any sport would be Germany for world soccer, The Cowboys for NFL football and the Rangers for NHL. The Croatian Archery team also packs a punch.
