Great news all around! Erik & Amy, all the best to you and to Danika. Gary, way to goâ€¦ well deserved! I’ve been celebrating this weekend, tooâ€”had a belated b-day last night; we drank ‘66 & ‘70 Chateau Figeac (one of eachâ€”!), ‘84 Clos du Bois Marlstone (a meritage-type blend, pre-meritage labeling). Outrageous!

Time magazine article was very flattering, good for you. Someday I’ll be able to say “oh yeah, me and gary go WAY back.” You know, the ol’ I-had-the-t-shirt-before-it-was-trendy thing.

Like I told you in SF, I hope ya make a $100M bucks!

Congratulations on the Time article! Next the cover Man of the Year! for changing the wine world. Summer time backyard wiffle ball where you had to clear the clothes line to knock it out in right, you knew the smell of the inside cuz those skinny yellow bats always busted open after a couple of days hard playing – thanks for the memories.

Gary,
Congrats on the Time Mag. interview/article. It’s nice to be noticed and appreciated for the hard work. The issue of the wine bully is brilliant. Great Champagne… enjoy it for me. I had a bottle Adriano Adami Prosseco “Garbel” and Terral Sole Brunnello di Montacino 2001last night. Very nice truly enjoyed them both. Getting more into Italian wines. Re-discovered areas such as Campagnia, Alto Adige, Sardinia, and Puglia. These regions are starting to produce great handcrafted wines at reasonable prices!

Congrats Eric and Amy. May your little girl turn out as well as mine did (and that was awfully good). QOTD. I’ll just tear the page out of the mag, fold it and put it in my wallet to educate future doubters. See you on the Vlog Monday Gary.

Great piece in Time Magazine. Here’s to drinking white wines at room temperature.

You know Gary, I have a tough time sucking air into my mouth and doing all of the gyrations that I normally do when tasting still wines. I feel the bubbles get in the way. I have to practice that more.

Congratulations all around. You deserve it!

Cheers.

Good call on champagne & sparkling wine Gary. Looking forward to the value show. How do prosecco’s rate to you? My wife, aunt and mother-in-law can’t get enough of them.

Lurker no more…
