Great Show!!!

Happy Birthday AJ. 21 was a great year for me (4 years ago)…..so live yours up!

QOTD: I am actually the oldest of my siblings, and I’m willing to admit that I’m probably not as cool as Gary, but hey, what I offer up is definitely unique to my younger sisters and brother.

Nice. Happy b-day AJ.
QOTD – I am the older bro!

Gary, keep the 120’s coming. WLTV has it beat, but I’m waiting to see what else is in store.

Happy birthday AJ, takes guts to put yourself out there. Be your own man….I can see you hosting Pastis or Absinth Library TV some day.

qotd: Youngest of four kids and my older brothers are both very cool, but in very different ways. I love them both a boat load. But if you had asked me that question when I was 21, or perhaps younger, I would have stated they both sucked, being the youngest and often beat upon brother:) Sometimes it takes a while to appreciate what you have. Happy-day!

Really cool episode, good for you guys! I am glad that you shared that with us.
Welcome to the wine world AJ (no wine till 21? yeah, right!). But anyway, congrats from Rio, Brazil.

… on the other hand, yu’ve to listen do some George Clinton. It kicks some 3000’s butt.

QOTD: 3 younger siblings.

I’m the oldest of two, but my younger brother is at LEAST as awesome as GV.

Happy Birthday, AJ!

Happy Birthday!

Though you should have saved the bottle till later so you could have drunk it with the rest of the family, instead of spitting it out. Oh well.

QOTD: I have two older sisters who are brilliant

Hey GV,

Happy Birthday AJ!

QOTD: I am the oldest, just turned 21. I could never be as awesome as GV, but my brother who will be 21 in 2011, is already watching the show. So I think I am bringing him up the right way, prepared to enter the wine world in 2011. Keep the show going!!!

Happy B-Day AJ! That was cool seeing your reactions to the wine. I just turned 21 no to long ago and had the same experience’s with tasting wine. It’s amazing how much my palate has evolved already.
QOTD: I am the youngest and have two older brothers. They are both very different and I Love them both very much. It’s amazing to think that they are both getting married this summer and I will be the best man in one of them.

Enjoy your B-day and take care!

Great show Gary! Got me thinking about selecting a wine or two to save for my youngest brother who’ll turn 21 in…2013.

I’m the youngest, and my brother isn’t nearly as cool as GV, but I love him all the same.

Yo GV,

Thanks for doing the Goblesberg

QOTD: I’m an only child, but I’ve had several friends with great families. There’s nothing more fun than having a big nurturing family.
Happy Birthday A.J.! I really enjoyed “meeting” you.
We had a similar experience with an Opus. It was still fun.

Happy Birthday, AJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!
QOTD: I’m the oldest. You are such a lucky couple of siblings!

QOTD: I am the older brother, so I hope I do all right. I’m still shopping just the right 2004 for my little brother’s first daughter who was born that year.

Great episode! I actually laughed out loud a couple of times thinking of my own little brother. Thanks and Happy Birthday AJ!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AJ!!! I’m surprised that growing up in the Vaynerchuk family that
you didn’t get to sample allot of wines. I let my kids have an occasional small sip of wine, it’s funny listening to their comments because they are always in the form of a Gary Vaynerchuk parody.
QOTD: I have an older brother and sister who are both into wines.

Gari Wan Kenobi – strong in the force this one is. But he still has much to learn.

My favorite show thus far! Gave me warm feelings for my 9-year-younger sister (that’s a first) and for my own introduction into the wine world. I had to do it pretty much on my own; sort of like the rat in a maze. Having a knowledeable older bro would have been a BIG help.

AJ, you rock!

Happy B-Day AJ!

Qotd: I’m the oldest, and smartest, and best-looking, and most successful, and… well you get the picture (The first-born always thinks that). You did a fine job young man. Enjoy your day!

Happy Birthday AJ!

Given your access, it is shocking to me that you have had so little experience with wine but appreciate your honest approach to this episode. I’m sure you will learn to love and appreciate wine over time but are obviously not in any hurry to “force” the issue which I think is admirable.
