89/100

line of the day – ‘I got zero, and I have a giant nose’

At last the sound has been sorted out…but still not a great format (for my palate)

Tend to agree with MikePos . . . I prefer the shows that deal with wines/knowledge/experience more in my range, for instance, I probably would not even pause at any of today’s wines.

QotD: Flowers, unlike wines, each possess a beauty and delight and each should be appreciated for that which it holds. On the other hand, no one yet said “sakura” so I will.

I’m using the wisdom from Episode #116 and “taking the high road.” This series was not my cup of tea!

Also, PLEASE, somebody get NY Pete some SS Chris!!!

QOTD: Bearded Iris. The most beautiful purple on the planet.

Nice episode, but I’m glad the week’s over. I am always confused when you reference a specific color of paint as a flavor or aromatic component. Also, I don’t consider red twizzlers to be licorice at all; they’re fruit flavored candy.

qotd: lavender and roses — I love the smell of both

qotd: the flowers on my strawberry plants.. maybe not the most beautiful but they sure announce some delicious fruit coming my way 😛

Eight people may be too many for an on-camera tasting: too much crosstalk. (I know, I know, I complain too much.) Too bad the wines didn’t show terribly well, but wines that are good and cheap are rare.

QOTD: Plumeria, a/k/a frangipani.

QOTD: Tulips in Holland. No question.

Loved the love for Kermit Lynch. Anything he imports is a BUY in my book. Personally and professionally. You’ve got to get that old hippie on your show.

I love when you bring the wisdom and wine-nerd-it-up like you did about Beaujolais and the lifespans, etc.
