    Gary, I gotta give that show from the archives 95+ points for originality. In its bizarre fashion, it makes the most compelling argument for the greatness of Ch. Lynch-Bages. Frankly, I liked the bad audio. Your crew has a great sense of humour. Too bad you didn’t have any ice wine at the end though. :-)

    QOTD: On December 21, 2001, the day before my 40th birthday, my family had a day trip while on vacation in Yosemite National Park. There was a snowstorm the day before and on that day it was sunny, clear, and not too cold. It was a truly sublime day.

    This was a very fun episode to watch. Seeing the glass slide across the table was fun and seeing, I think the dudes name is Mott, stand in the background the entire time and cover himself with the sign when Gary spit was fun to.

    One of your best episodes Gary.

    Holy crap! Good grief that weather reminds me of the lake effect snow we used to get growing up in Rochester, NY coming off Lake Ontario. Gary, you da man! The best snow day? Well, I can only think of the monster ice storm we got way back in 1991. We were without power for a week and cooked all our meals in the fireplace. One of the few times they ever cancelled school up there!

    OMG,
    Gary, you are one crazy dude!

    My mother would get an heart attack if she had seen me like this outside on the snow (plus she would probably give me a smack to the face;)

    LOL!!! That was fantastic! But I thought it was going to have more to do with how weather, i.e. rain/dry/hot/cold affect the grapes during growing and how this affects the finished wine.

    Damn! I remember that storm, it took me 3 hours to drive home from work and almost got blown off the highway!

    Awesome show!!! I was laughing so hard when the wine bottles starting moving too!

    Thanks for doing what you do! We really appreciate it at our house.

    Maybe it’s cause I’m a canuck and I’m in the middle of a snowstorm right now, but this one has replaced 148 as my all time favourite ep. We didn’t get a recap at the end on how weather affects wine though - maybe you could do it again??! Love the wine glass blowing across the table.

    My husband and I watched this episode a couple weeks ago and had to rewind it several times to watch your glass slide off the table! You are hilarious! Thanks for not being a stuffy wine snob!

    We’ve got nothing to do with it. It’s ALL you, Gary! You have changed the face of wine tasting forever! For the better, imho…

    Cheers!

    Hahaha! That’s AWESOME! I hope you didn’t get sick after filming that episode. I’ll have to watch the next episode and see how things turned out after you (and the wine) had a chance to warm up again. :-)

    Gary YOU ROCK!

    I hope you didn’t get sick after this episode.

    –To answer your questions about my favorite snow day:–
    Being stuck at Hunter Mountain after 20 inches of snow fell and not being able to make it to work the next day. I had a legit excuse and skied the following day without any guilt.
