‘I’m quite bored by it and I’m almost taking a nap.’

After a couple of bore draws this episode turns up a decisive and surprising winner of the head to head. Makes for a much better show.

    1, Nice Oregon (Pron. Orygun not Orygone) Duck colors, LOL!, 2, 08 vs.07 is not a good comparison, probably should try the 08 BF, 3, Many Oregon Pinots can be described as $16-18 bottles especially in a boring vintage, Pinot is so inconsistent that the vintage diff can be huge

    QOTD: A Duck victory in the Rose Bowl!

    Wow always great to see a massive upset.
    QOTD: Wow that is a hard question. Seeing as how I am a college student I am slightly in debt. I would like for Christmas to find a part time job that works with my crazy schedule next semester.

    Gary what do you want for Christmas?

    @smiledoc – those are not Oregon colors, those are South African Springbok Rugby colors! (Some might even say colours… hehe)
    Gary, did you wear this to promote the new movie by Clint Eastwood?

    Really liking these quick, focused blind tastings GV; they’re fun to watch. An ex of mine (grr to the ex) got me into the Oregon pinots (yay to the wine). I’m looking to try more.

    QOTD: I’d like a new TV. My 10-year old 20″ hunk-o-junk is bringing me down. I’m ashamed to be such an obnoxiously loud Notre Dame fan with such an obnoxiously small TV when watching football!

    Keep it real.
