Smokeyust – ease up on Viddler. We get it, you know how to use the widget.

Eric, great appearance! I’m looking forward to reading your book. Your adventure sounds like “Into The Wild”, but for wine. (Into The Wine?) You have the exact same goatee as Tom Klein, the guy who married my ex-girlfriend out from under me in 1993. Best favor anyone ever did for me – seriously.

QOTD: What would I like to see baked into a pie? Either rhubarb or olallieberry. Gary, ever had olallieberry?

Argh, I did it again. Went shopping without watching WLTV first. I just came back from the book store and didn’t expect this type of episode. A great episode, I must say.

QOTD: Ground chuck and potatoes!

Have a great weekend everyone.

Great show. I actually read the book a few months ago. It was fun and educational. Made me want to drink wine rather than make it.

GV,

How about a show with gifts for wine lovers. I am running out of ideas to tell people to buy me. What is on your wish list?

Great show yet again, although I’m itchin’ to see what’s under the football…

QOTD: Just going on what I’m craving right now… spinach, feta and banana peppers… but all those pies sound might tasty.

MMM…pie: how about lamb, rosemary, raspberry coulis served with an Argentinian Malbec or a Chilean Carmenere.
Or bacon and fudge.

Sounds like a fun book. I bet my wife would like it too. It’s going on the my iwantsandy.com booklist….

Yo GV, your little show has more clout, creative power and originality than anything on network TV. Don’t let it go to your head but the work you and your team is doing is more important to me than the glossy stuff coming from WS mag. You should bring Eric back for another episode. He’s got the right wine dood spark and I think we will see or hear from him again. Keep it up. P.S. More sparklers please.

Holy Crap Tim, that sounds awesome! Are you Cajun? (I’m from New Orleans, living in L.A.)

I like having the guests on WLTV.

QOFT from EA: I like what Plminer said: “Brie, apple, bacon, carmalized onions and rosemary chicken.”
December 7, 2007

Mr.Sato
You truly are reaching new heights Gary. Just stay YOU, and don’t get a big head!

QOTD: Plums, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, cassis, and currants… a bittersweet chocolate topping with a little black pepper. I’d call it red wine pie.

Keep on rockin Gary, and best of luck to you on your book Eric, you seem like a great guy.

QOD: Zweibelkuchen! Kind of like a German quiche with eggs, bacon, and onions.

Either that or the little Greek takeout pies you get at MDW.

QOTD: Egg, cheese, sausage and bacon for breakfast………
