Nice EP GV. As a wine newbie, I really enjoyed the more detailed explanations of how to taste and what to evaluate. I didn’t taste along, but would be interested in the future.

My greatest prediction: (to my wife) That I would never wear a pink shirt. Still holding strong!

Greece, the final frontier. Gary sometimes you push even those of us who have worked in the business for awhile. Good effort.

QOTD: Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, Carrie Underwood, and I never even watch the show. That A-Rod would suck completely last year.That Roy Jones Jr. would never make it as a heavy weight, and afterwards look completely pitiful. That those Phat Farm coats are made of dog hair. I mean come on.

QOTD-
Greatest Prediction#1: Ice Bowl December 31, 1967 Packers defeat Cowboys in closing drive and last 4.5 minutes of the game in 13 degree below weather at Lambeau. I was 8 yrs old at the time and already a die-hard Packer fan. Best block by Jerry Kramer on Jethro Pugh. My Aunt Tillie could have scored on that play.
GP#2: Bucky Dent’s game winning 3 run homer against the Boston BloSox in Boston for the American League Pennant in the playoff game on 10/2/1978. Awesome!!

Hey Gary
WEll if I had watched earlier I wouldn’t have had a greatest prediction ever comment, but now, since my Alma Mater VCU, just knocked Duke out of the Tourney which I predicted, that would have to be my greatest prediction so far. I am 89.3% correct so far on my picks….

Also, a while ago you mentioned to watch out for the Snake River Valley in Idaho as a big up and comer, I read today, that the SRV just will recieve AVA status as of APril 9th. WORD

Hey folks! GV asked for a high number of responses from now to Sunday so that he might secure ‘05 Bordeaux futures. Let’s go! We need one hundred and fifty plus in short order. Lurkers, get with the program: a note, a simple message. We needs to convince, by sheer numbers, that we are seriously interested in the ’05’s.
(GV, what about Burgandy? Same story. Under the radar.)

Hey, Gary, was unable to get the wines, but the show was fab as always. Took some great notes. QOD: Greatest predidiction? Don’t make them. I’m more entertained by others’ predictions…:}

QOTD: I had two – 1) Sox would run off 4 in a row on the Yanks 2) Clinton was probably doing something other than smoking that cigar …

To be honest, I predicted #1 many times and it finally happened … #2 was genuine, got it right the first time!

Dave Canada
Wish I had access to those wines Gary….I’d love to taste along.
QOTD-Prediction #1 – Raptors win 2007 NBA championship
Prediction #2 – Patrick Ewing will never make the Hall of Fame
Prediction #3 – Dolan will be scorned for making the stupidest decision ever to extend Isaiah
Prediction #4 – Dave will route Gary in 1:1 basketball
Prediction #5 and really the best one-Gary will continue Wine Library TV well into episode 100
Keep Rockin’ it Gary

My greatest prediction is that my DD would marry My DSI. And that was 7 years before
the question was popped! Like a Great bottle of Champagne!
It did happen and I was the matron of honor.
Now I see the other predictions are sports related and so is mine!

QOTD– When I first moved to Chapel Hill in 1981 I went to a basketball game and watched a kid from Willmington, NC. I turned to my husband and said “He’s got the shine” From the first game I saw him play I knew he was a special player– Even I didn’t realize just how special it was to watch Micheal Jordan his freshman year. Every March I remember that special 1981-82 season.

Unfortunately, I did not “taste along” since Dominus was not included in the lineup but nevertheless a good show. Do more of them.

QOTD: The most recent prediction has to be when we beat the Chiefs, Ravens, spanked the Pats and then Da Bears! I knew it. Got the monkey off my back!

Cheers and have a great trip,

Peyton

P.S. To Belichick: Keep signing the likes of Donte Stallworth. It won’t help.

Gary..
Tasting together!!! Could you possibly send an e-mail blast or post in the forum..the wines you plan on tasting on your next episode of WLTV. It really would help. I really enjoy comparing my tasting notes with yours…and if I knew what you planned on tasting..I would have stocked up on the wine before each episode. I t would be fun to really taste it live with you..and it might be ogod for business for you!

QOTD: Nothing great I predidcted has ever come true but I will make a new prediction…
In less than a year GV’s opinion will be more valued than any one on WS’s staff, already there in my mind.
