    Enought to get my wine atlas book(s) out to find out where this interesting white grape comes from…. what a great show! thanks again Gary. QOD walnuts for your birthday

    My man! He’s back and yes, “Falanghina” is fun to say and drink. Here’s another good one I tried recently CANTINA DEL TABURNO FALANGHINA 2008, ITALY. Good stuff and I will of course order some from today’s show.

    34? Please, you’re a young and very successful “young” man.

    QOTD: Original “Stinkor”? No, did that. What do you want other than a Jets victory from the “Good Luck Bear.” You should beat the Jags.

    P.S. Who wins? Colts or Pats?

    Cheers!

    Hey Gary!

    Have you ever had this blended white wine from Oregon called Junehog! Amazingly lovely, sings of peaches and some kind of orange confection or treat on the nose, light-medium bodied, balanced acidity and juicy fruit. 🙂 i wasn’t sure where to leave a message like this, first time on the site.

    Good to see you back at home base. I’ll have to see if I can scare up a Falanghina hereabouts.

    Thirty-four and you’re whining about being old? I’m old enough to be your father, you young whippersnapper, and I’m not old (okay, my knees ache sometimes and I can no longer call myself “balding,” but other than that…), so how can you be?

    QOTD: I’ll see if I can point a couple of new viewers your way. Oh, and I’ll raise a glass in your honor.

    Hey Gary,

    Another good one. Interesting to see wines from around the world. We miss out on a lot of that being in South Australia as we have soooo many local wines that it is hard to justify buying imported ones which for the price point are never as good.

    Anyway keep up the educating and loving the show. I hope the book tour is going well.

    As always, let me know if you are in South Australia at any stage.
    Cheers,
    Andy

    Interesting show. Tend to focus more on reds, so I like when I can add a few new whites to my wine-vocab.

    QOTD: My young (21) eager palate to mold : )

  • Darn you Gary, you make me want to go to Naples to experience the wine first hand…

    QOTD: I got you some root beer. I’m glad you enjoyed it at the book signing north of Chicago last week 🙂 Maybe I’ll get you some smokeless cigarettes from that guy ahead of me…
