Good show

One of my favorite shows in awhile because I visit Foxen winery regularly (not in the club, though, might have to change that) and my brother just took me to Justin in Paso Robles where he is a member. They take you to a “Special Club Members” area that requires a gate code just to get into the lot. The place is uber creepy but fun. I also agree with you on the Isosceles. Waaaaaay too much oak on most of their wines.

QOTD: Born and raised in L.A. so it's been the Dodgers since I was in diapers.

pretty sad

QOTD: SF Giants

Thanks for showing Calif wines some love this week. QOTD – SF Giants, now & forever. BTW, if the Justin folks are reading the comments, our friends have also had many Justin vertical tastings over the years & we found similar concerns as you did (recent wines a little disjointed, too oaky). Kinda torn because we have loved the wines in the past but a little less enthusiastic now.
BTW am guessing you like “smoky eyes” (think Kim Kardashian) rather than “raccoon eyes” (Chrissie Hynde) but I could be mistaken. No question Chrissie has more talent, but the look is severe punk. Like a raw inky Syrah IMHO.

You go girl! I watched your episode and you showed nice skills!

No price on the Pinot and a simple Google shows Parker at 89+ on the Isoceles … Fire K. Murph !

I'm a long time member of the Foxen Anchor Club. Foxen makes a huge variety of wines with very, very few misses. I just attended their annual Vintner's Festival Dinner at the Alisal Guest Ranch last Saturday. It is always a great time with outstanding wines. The hit of the night for me was the 2008 Bien Nacido Block 8 pinot noir with the duck risoto. They usually make enough wine that you can go to their site and buy it unless it is a special, limited production wine such as their Sea Smoke pinot or especially their Select Smoke pinot (very limited production from the Sea Smoke Vineyard).

QOTD: The only team I have deep feelings about is the Dodgers, but not the current team, the Dodgers from the late '50s and early '60s. I really liked the Johnny Roseboro, Sandy Koufax, Don Drysdale teams.

Good show- high energy today!
QOTD: Red Sox, out of loyalty, though I pay only marginal attention any more- hasn't felt like any of them play out of love for the game for a long time now. Local HS and farm team ball is way more interesting.

The comments that came later say the 89 was for the reserve isoceles, only availible at the winery?

WEEEEEE LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVE KMURPH !!!!!!!!!!!! :O)

WEEEEEE LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVE KMURPH !!!!!!!!!!!! :O)

qotd – the 1992 Toronto Blue Jays winning the World Series. Sure the players were mostly all American but hey you take Stanley Cup wins with Canadian, Russian, Swedish players…A win is a win.

love the smarties but never one at a time. I’ll have to retrain my smarties palate and taste them one at a time…….

Hey Gary – enjoyed the show. Stop apologizing for talking to Mott, etc, I don't know. Wish I could afford that Pinot, sounds amazing. QOTD: Seattle Mariners, old fav is the Redsox – former Masshole here. Thanks, and goodnight!
