QOTD: Since you can’t ship to Maryland, how ’bout free gas for the trip up to Wine Library?

Antonio…I am with your comment “everything goes in cycles”. That comment made me think of a statement I just recently read about desert wines from France…..”Although some of the wines are now among the most sought after and expensive in the world, this wasn’t always the case. Sweet wines went out of vogue in the 1960s and ’70s, leaving producers without the funds to properly maintain their vineyards. A fall in wine quality resulted.It wasn’t until the outstanding vintage of 1983 garnered critical praise and consumer attention that sales increased dramatically. Top producers haven’t looked back since and are again investing in their vineyards and making luscious sweet wines vintage after vintage.”

I don’t care about free shipping, TS. Add an emoticon with a raspberry!
However, since I can’t use free shipping, the equivalent value in wine will be acceptable, Gary.

Hey, aktormedic. You need to join us for a local tasting. I know you’re nearby, so try to get here. You never know what will show up on the table – especially when TampaSteve drops in.

Gary should go on a WLTV tour of the U.S. for the 1 year anniversary. Boston, Philly, D.C., Chicago, and LA.

QOTD – Yes to free shipping to Canada
Gary, Gary, Gary. You are so lucky that I live in Ontario as I would wup your ass…..like dribbling around you, then dunking on you and throwing you in the east river ass wupin’ If you are ever in Toronto, please let me know and I’ll get a court and a kick as bottle of wine to sooth your bruised ego with.

Dom
QOTD: By all means. Yes, he should give free shipping for one year! I’m all for that.

Answer: Zero (what am I, #52?)

On to better things. A basketball or tennis challenge? I’ve been planning on making the trip up the turnpike to your wine shrine (hmm, I wonder if anyone has that url?) and now I have even more incentive. Getting to meet GV and then spank him like a baby in tennis AND basketball! Now how much fun would that be? Especially since I’m probably twice his age.

Wager: A bottle of Dominus at each sport. 2 out of three sets in tennis (trust me, it will only be two) and a game of one-on-one to 20 by 2s and then a game of H-O-R-S-E. Hey, I’m an old man. I need a break.

Great show Gary. I’ll get you a movie clip by Wednesday. I guess a clip of me looking like Peyton with a monkey on his back that he throws at the camera is out of the question?

Cheers!

Yes I agree, free shipping is a good anniversary gift! As for the arithmetic question, I’m not sure it’s zero. It could be 5+5-5-5. That would equal 0. But the way Gary pronounced it, I thought he said 5+5-(5-5) which equals 10. So I’m covered both ways. Hey Gary, howzabout that Vayniac shirt! Show a brother some love.

QOD-Definite YES for free shipping. Screw you locals, we can’t get there for the tastings and browse in the store

Hey Gary, you never rated the Casanova this time. Usually “Air-ache” saves your @$$ on this too!

QOTD: HELLS YEAH!
WS is part of a conspiricy to push California and the cal style on the rest of the world, consequently I really don’t pay attention to their ratings. Gary V. on the other hand tells it like he sees it and is not in bed with any wine industry people. (at least I don’t think so.)

G,
I am glad you retasted, I own a bottle of the Casanova and I am debating on when to open.

How long would you hold it for?

QOTD: Yes Free Shipping! Come on Gary Hook Us Up!

QOTD: How about FREE Wine and I’ll pay my own Shipping!!!
I would send you a picture of me in my Vayniac T-Shirt but I don’t have one…Maybe I can win one next time…

Oh common, all you locals quit whining. You get “free” shipping every day. Plus you can browse the entire WL stock by just walking down the aisle. Those two are bennies enough for y’all. YES YES YES on free shipping for the WLTV anniversary! Wooo hooo!

You know, I think everything goes in cycles… Maybe now, the wine world is moving to one fruit bomb flavor as a lot of people are finding out about wines and lets face it. New drinkers tend to like the fruity flavors. However, I think that once there is homogenous flavor the wines that offer something different will begin to stand out and the big sellers will be precisely wines that are different and the wine world will move to different flavors once again. Those are my 2 cents…
