Awesome episode. Length was fine to me. I’m still catching up on old episodes, but hopefully they keep coming. Like others have said, pace yourself. Maybe doing something like this where you get to drink some wine you just feel like sharing is a good way to stay interested.
Sidenote: party at Miami University in Ohio early April featuring these wines..you’re invited Gary. (not exactly the tasting kind)
Enjoy the trip!

I loved the episode and would also love a case link so I could buy the whole kit and kabbodle.

QOTD: Not only do I like you, but I respect you and what you have to say (not to mention the entertaining way you say it!). I also admire your business accumen and your ability to stay ahead of the curve. What you’ve built here is amazing. Congrats on #200! I hope there are many more WLTV episodes in the future.

Speaking of futures…I hope you have a wonderful trip to Bordeaux!

GV – I like you…but my wife didn’t like you at first. She even asked me to wear headphones when watching episodes! (We have a small apartment). But I said screw that, I’m my own man. Then, I’d hear a chuckle every now and then from her after a GV comment like: “…it tastes like a jolly rancher, but not the regular ones. the really thin ones…” Now she’s a fan and plans to enter the Vanyiac t-shirt contest.

Love the paintball reference…there’s nothing like shooting friends and loved ones.

I haven’t had any trouble downloading the Quicktime version of late … maybe it’s got something to do with it being such a massive file this time around?

You mentioned that you drink your whites at room temperature to make sure nothing is hidden. Do you do this only when “tasting” wines or when you are also enjoying wines in the comfort of your home? Never really had a room temperature white wine on purpose so would be curious if this is a consistant habit of yours.

Gary,

Great episode…not too long, I enjoyed every bit of it. It’s exciting to see you fired up about some wines that you really like to drink in your free time. I know that we all appreciate the 200 free episodes that you have worked so hard to provide for all the vayniacs. I have a feeling that this won’t be going on forever, but I will enjoy it while it lasts!

BTW…my Red Raiders, led by the one and only Bobby Knight, are playing Boston College tomorrow in the first round of the NCAA tourney. Raider Power!!!

OK…It’s 11:21pm and the SS is done. Started @ 7:30pm and took a break for American Idol.

So, 3 hours and 20 minutes. YIKES!! (Cali in August — I figure that persistance works for Tampa..LOL)

BTW, Gary a Great, GReat episode…truley a Tour de Force performance.

But I agree w/ GeneV (#80 above) and you know I’ve expressed this too previously (interesting…I believe I said this too you around Episode #100–the whole Derek/Corte Riva thing). Please don’t burn out. I for one, would prefer you doing 3 episodes a week for the long haul rather than 5x a week for another 50 episodes. I’m pretty sure everyone would agree w/ Gene and me on this.

Thanks for all you do and have a safe trip!!

Gary, I more than like you. I look forward almost evey day to spending our time together. I watch you when the rest of the family are asleep so I can talk to you and yell at you. I wish you a great trip to France and look forward to your return. I got the feeling today that you are getting tired of doing the show. I hope you keep it up and don’t let yourself burn out.

Hi everyone,
I was a lurker. Now I am not. I wanted to see all episodes before leaving a comment. However, I couldn’t wait to say:
Congratulations Gary for 200 episodes of a great show!
Thanks for taking the time to do WLTV, hope you make at least other 200 episodes!

Also, thanks to all WL crew!

QOTD: Of course. Who doesn’t?!?

Congrats on 200 episodes. It’s been a great ride. I loved the theme today. Always fun to try new and unusual wines. I think you’ve got another 200 episodes in you-easy!
QOD What do you think!

Gary/Eric/Webmaster:

Please forgive me, since I’m not one to be petty, or be a little fem-whiner, or voice complaints over insignificant issues but I’m having problems with the ‘new’ look of the TV episode. What I would do when it was strictly a Quicktime plugin movie was to ’save it as’ for uninterupted viewing later. Now, however I believe it has to be viewed realtime, not being able to saved, and buffering/speed dependent upon internet congestion at the time of viewing. In other words, the video stops and starts depending on the available bandwidth feed to me, which makes for a much less enjoyable viewing. Is there a work-around for this? Can I save the video to my desktop like I was able to in the past and view it at my leisure, or must I get the feed realtime – everytime. Choosing the Quicktime option that is given does not allow me to save the video like I was able to in the past. Thanks.

Gary,

WLTV the movie? Why not? We’d all go and see it. Keep up the great combo of head in the clouds, feet on the ground.
