    I’m still laughing. Gary, my friend, you have raised the bar on the definition of a vayniac. I just may duplicate that tasting myself here in cincinnati. Its still snowing here, and I’ve always wanted to try those wines. Thanks for keeping it light and entertaining. hope you have a nice eve. with your honey tonite.

    Gary-
    You are a nut! Talk about “OVER-THE-TOP” – I think that expression best fits you!!!
    That catch of the wine glass and Casanova were instant classics. All you had to do was eat some yellow snow for the full effect. I thought that was Lars with the iceball down your neck – nice! Great promo of the t-shirt. You are the master!

    The wind blowing the glass and the spit bucket were classic! Way to go in the t-shirt too!

    Gary, I’m inclined to believe that the weather may have caused you to score those wines a bit low (or high). You should taste them in a controlled environment, your office, and see if they score different.

    Hope you don’t get sick.

    QOTD: I remember one snow day when I was high school; we took out a Ford Bronco, and towed an inner tube around town, in hindsight quite dangerous but still a blast.

    Oh, the insanity! Gary V giving up good conscience and braving the winter weather. I’m giving 3-1 odds that you end up sick by 7pm.

    QOD: I think it got down into the 30s once (I live in Florida).

    Holy crap!! Your tasting glass almost flew away in that wind. Geez Gary, are you going to do a skydiving tasting next??

    Awesome episode. Favorite snow day? Easy: Blizzard of 1983. We got absolutely pummeled in Maryland and didn’t have to go to school for several days.

    #29 Ken is right – - this is a top five episode, hands down!

    HELLZZZZZZZZ YEAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    AWWWEESOME! Man that was fun.. from the car in the bg trying to get on WLTV, to the glass being blown away from you while you sit on your hands, to the beginnings of the snowball brawl at the end.

    I just want to see a pic of the patch of red/black snow where you were spitting all that juice!

    Rock on GV!

    This was totally fun to watch, thanks Gary V. What a great idea for wine tasting show! Once the frost bite wears off you’ll be good as new.

    Definitely a top 5 episode.

    Gary….what´s happen on the opposite weather??? It´s a beautiful sunshine day, around 38ºC, here in Rio de Janeiro! Great episode!

    hmm…That was…well, interesting… Now I know next time I am drinking wine outside in the snow and wind that the smells and flavors wont be affected so much. Just slightly muted. Not that I see the snow to much here on the left coast. How long were the wines outside before you started drinking them? What was the temperature there today? Anyway, that will definitely go down as one of the classic episodes!
