Suggested contest: send in a radool recipe with wine.

Suggested price for next wltv-contest: Oversea-Wine-Tasting Overseas (fly there, taste, fly back…). I’d love to drink some Australian Shiraz in Australia or some Chilean Carbanet-Sauv. in Chile.

Congrats to Drive Guy. Can’t wait to see it.

QOTD: For a contest, I would like something objective (drawing) rather than subjective (design a webpage / shirt / wristband). Perhaps some sort of time limited trivia quiz about WLTV based on all 360+ episodes that have occurred? You could ask questions about obscure things that were said on old shows. Announce the contests, give us like a month to review the old footage, then give a trivia quiz with someone like 24 hours to respond (long enough to compose an answer, not long enough to watch all the old episodes).

qotd: I think the contest should be a random drawing. Designing a shirt or wristband or whatever eliminates those of us who aren’t exactly “artistically inclined” *cough* me *cough* I say you should make the prize a free bottle of wine once a month for a year. Although it’s not that big of a prize, it’s definitely something that will encourage people to expand their horizons. Plus I wouldn’t mind a free bottle of wine every month…

I am sure someone already suggested it but, I would love a tour and a shopping spree at the wine library. Would also love if Gary himself helped to pick out the wines….

So the QOTD was “what should the next WLTV contest be?”, I think. I suggest a creative writing assignment, a theme if you will (like that will EVER happen when a guy who terms himself “not the biggest education man” is involved!). Think of your sister, dude. She could grade them! Yes, I can hear the huge groundswell of support from the Vayniacs……anyone? anyone? Buehler?

Great Show! Love the Veneto!

Love the lunch box GV! Pour out a little wine for time, family, and friends.

Who doesnâ€™t love a good 49 cent wine?!?! WOW, 63 pointsâ€¦brining the noise!

Next contestâ€¦ Iâ€™m a big proponent of the â€œwine experienceâ€. Wine is so much more than just fermented grape juice. How you react to a wine is all about where you are and who your with. So, I propose a â€œwine experienceâ€ contest where viewers are asked to describe the best experience theyâ€™ve ever had at a winery (anywhere in the U.S.). Blog about it, mentioning the Wine Library TV contest (no major widgets or banner ads necessary), and the winner goes with Gary to the winery and films an episode of Wine Library TV. It would be a great experience for the winner and great promotion for the winery.

QOTD: a trip to Harlan Estate and Bond or a barrell tasting with John Kongsgaard, oh wait, I have done all that, but not with GV!

Under the ball – 2008 Yankee World Series Ring? Doubtful. Hahahaa

QOTD: A contest based on comments will flush out the lurkers…like it did last time. I wouldn’t mind the contest having something to do with writing about wine. Or maybe just putting together the best WLTV parody (video).

QOTD: How about a prize like joining Gary at the 2007 futures barrel tasting in Washington DC? That’s kind of a once-in-a-lifetime thing for most of us Vaniacs.

Under the football? A cork maybe?

Congrats to the Canadian winner… Next contest could be about sending in a little video where you describe the oddest wine experience that you’ve had (could be positive or negative)…or just put together something highlighting what wine means to you…

The next contest could be for the ability to choose a featured wine for WL. Goes on the homepage and is prominently displayed in the store.
