I'm selling lindaflor also here in Belgium. Gary you're right about the tasting notes. But you should've tried with pure chocolate. I love milk chocolate too. But you need the bitterness of pure choc. Go ahead and try it.
Do not forget if you taste the lindaflor (also the Chardonnay) there is a little sparkle of mentol. It becomes very intresting if you can find this.

Regards,

Alex

    I’ll have you know I spent the weekend hunting for obscure and unfamiliar Spanish wines and that it was partially your fault.

    Salud.

    Gary,

    Oh, that champagne looked wonderful. What happens to the rest of the bottle after any of your tastings???
    Great 300th episode – the singing – well what was that?? Daring and scary at the same time. (d & s) Perfect for #300.

    Thank you for all that you have done for those of us afraid to venture out and explore wines. One small step for man – one giant leap for grapes. You are awesome! (as is the rest of your crew!)

  • HI Gary, my boyfriend introduced me to your videos. He created AmericanWinery.com and his right and left hand men, Stacey and Will are total “Vanyiacks”. Anyway, I just wanted to say hello, I love your show – and I would be so pleased if you could take the time to check out a youtube video from my home land of Hawaii. It is Rap Repplingers, Aunty Marialani’s Cooking show. “she” has some great words on wine tasting, you will not be disappointed.

    Hey Gary,
    Just got a chance to watch the 300 episode (sorry I’ve been swamped lately) but I just wanted to give a shout out to you for tasting the 2000 Taittinger Rose. I shared a bottle of that with my father in law and his wife (it was their anniversary present) on my wedding day last year. A very special bottle to be sure; thanks GV and congratulations on all of the success.

    Ratings suck? Nah. In every case I like a Parker 98 better than a GV 78. Okay, yeah, maybe we could quibble and debate – your 89 is my 91. But if I’m looking for something to celebrate the big deal at work with, I’m going with a 90+ (or 95+), not the 2-buck Chuck that I had last weekend and was great with burgers on the patio.

    Congrats on 300! We ARE changing the wine world!

    Hey B, 300 is looking BLEAK!!

    Perhaps we should start a contest to determine what is the best name to call ourselves?? ..like…VaynerPEEPS…VaynerPOSSEE….WINE LIBRARIANS. This should drive the count up

    Can you put together some kind of voting mechanism??

    or…maybe I can call myself DEREK and comment about the Corte Riva Merlot?
