    Nice episode Gary. Good to see a take on those supermarket wines. Your right, I guess maybe they can be of a higher quality than I expected. However, I feel there are too many small producers and boutique wines out there in that price range. So I’d rather spend my money seeking out those types of wine than those mass produced supermarket ones.
    would love to see you tackle a vin jaune episode Gary. If you did one on tasting those charbono’s out there that would be fun to see too.

    Gary – I know you’re not reading comments on the air anymore, but I thought I’d ask this question and maybe you could answer in an upcoming show:

    I’ve heard that the “green-ness” or the “vegetable” flavor you like so much is actually under-ripe fruit. In other words, grapes picked too early. Is that true?

    GV. Long time lurker, first time poster. Someone brought that Syrah to my girlfriends not to long ago, and we opened it on a whim. I was equally pleased, and quite shocked when they told us it was from a drugstore.

    There is a better then average chance that you may have shopped at Kroger (singular) and not know it (although maybe not as far as NJ) as they operate under a gazillion other names. πŸ™‚ Unfortunately, due to odd laws in Colorado we will not see these out here. πŸ™

    Great show GV, I agree that the pace was good. I’m in the 6% that love those vegetal wines, so I’m going to need to find me an Albertsons I guess.

    QOTD: Either “Love your family” or “MOTT!!!”

  • THe nearest kroger I can Think of is 100 miles away at least, I am curious about the Espuela del Gaucho wine.

    QOTD: If I had my way, the sign would read: ” Take the Red Pill “.

    Did the original Jets bucket have a tragic accident?
    Why are you shilling Miller Lite?
    Is this a veiled sponsorship of WLTV?
