For me it depends, new world is good by itself and with strong food, old world is often tough by itslef. What I can’t stand is overoaked over vanillaed wines

I enjoy more new world wine than old world, but what Gary describes is absolutely true; you get the earth out of old world wine.

Going through some old episodes when I was move of a lurker, amazing only a few dozen comments compared to the hundreds now for each show, and Gary was still very tame on the show, getting his feet wet. We (most, other than the couple angry people below) are all glad you stayed with it. The only problem with Brunello is when you just start out building your cellar, it's a wine unless you find an other vintage to drink, you have to enjoy looking at the bottle vs drinking it! www.winelx.com

good episode Gary, and a very important one. That’s pretty much the 1st thing I ask when recommending wines to a guest is if they have a preference between old/new world wines. Which usually leads to me explaining the difference to the guest.
For a new world tasting, I’d love to see you do a California charbono one.
For an old world tasting, it would be great to see you do one on the vin jaune’s of Jura.
