In Napa, the flavor of Cabernet Sauvignon tends to be stronger than Merlot. However, Cab tends to have a smooth, satin-like mouth feel, whereas Merlot tends to be thicker, like velvet. This Meritage (Bordeaux-style blend) could've been overshadowed by the Australian Shiraz they tasted previously, making it harder to pick out the different flavors and textures.

A Bordeaux-style blend -- with varying amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec, and/or Carménère -- is very popular.

Ahahahaha!
the funniest part of this for me was Roz saying 'I already hate you for putting that song in my head!'
"Please! Prepare to be stomped like a late-harvest Gewürztraminer."
Thanks! :D

Lol, where do they come up with these lines? Hilarious!
HAIL CORKMASTER THE MASTER OF THE CORK...
The royal handwave Niles pulls off at the end killed me. I'm dead boys
I always thought Frasier should have won, it takes a more distinguished palette to pick out the “lesser” wine
I always thought that too.

I like my comedy the same way I like my women...jammy, plummy, dense, and chewy.
I prefer them nice, big and with excellent heft.
okay hannibal
I was trying to find a clip to demonstrate to my friend why I love Frasier as much as I do. For me, this encapsulates it utterly :D
And the symphony for his show
He knows which wine goes with Fish or Pork.
Repeat after me: "Hail Corkmaster, the Master of the Kork. He knows which wine goes with Fish and Pork. Hail Corkmaster, the Master of the Kork. He knows which wine goes with Fish and Pork. Hail Corkmaster..."

To the corkmobile!
I LOVE that song.
Better than the coronation
frasier gets winescoped
I miss smart, truly funny & thoughful shows.
I guess Hannibal Lecter didn’t have an old friend for dinner.
THAT'S who that was. It was bugging me while watching the video. 👍
...prepare to be stomped like a late harvest gerwurtraminer!
45/55 that reminds me of recent events that had a similar tune to it.

I love how some were getting the words wrong for "Hail, Cork Master!" lol

Nice?
I'm crying with laughter! Can anyone please tell me the lyrics of the 'Corkmaster song'?
I wonder if they taste Napa Valley wines in France..
Look up "Judgment of Paris".

Absolute brilliance! Long live the Socialist revolution!
Didn’t Niles win by 5%? The judge said 10%....
55% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon.
that doesn't even make sense; how can a liquid be chewy?

How can one be so knowledgeable about wine (which would take a lot of money) and still eat PORK!?!?!?!?!
I can't work out whether you're implying that pork is for those without knowledge, or those without money.
