Been mad busy so I’m playing episode catch-up. I loved your dad! More specifically, I loved how you and your dad interact. I too am all about the family and it was heartwarming to watch! And your dad is quite charming

Pipes – loved ya chica. You were a fabu sidekick. Great chemistry with all 3 of you (oh and Mott, cannot forget the Mottster!) Like Pipes, I will def be making a trip to the Winelib! Not as far to travel since I’m in Howard Beach, but it’ll feel like forever once I get on the BeltParway (ugh! I hate that piece of “road”).

QOTD 1: 62ish?
QOTD 2: I’d love to say something really profound here, but why lie? I’d love to shadow perezhilton. I know! I should be ashamed, but seriously,
QOTD 2a: he gets to hang with all these fabulous people and creates havoc with his outlandish stories, and he gets paid for it!
QOTD 3:…neutral on this one….

Thanks for the marathon episode. Nice to see people on who have been watching as long as I have…since episode 25 or so. Interesting that the wine tasted better at the winery than when it tasted away. I have done that many times and had the same yech, what was I thinking response.
Your dad looks to be only a little older than me, maybe mid-60’s.
I’ve been an Obama fan for over two years since the last Democratic convention so I would like to see him win.

Shakin’ it up this year I see. Nice work.

Hugh Hefner…not so much because he lives in the playboy mansion but because he always gets to wear his PJs to work!

I’m not political but it looks like Obama will take it.

#1: Pipes, yes I’ve gotten the wine unibrow after a bit of tasting.

QOTD 1: Sasha is…61?

QOTD 2: My executive chef, Nano Crespo, because I admire his work (our menu) so much, and his affinity for pairing flavors on the plate the way I try to pair his food with the wines on our list, and because he’s just a damn RADOOL guy.

QOTD 3: As I did on Super Tuesday, I’m ready to BARACK the vote again in November, and he WILL be our next Pres.

Finally! You made me leave a comment GV! Thanks for tasting a great wine from a great up and coming region in Canada. I’m sure someone already mentioned it but its pronounced oh-soy-yoos. I was in the region last summer and it was unbelievable not only for the wines, but the scenery as well. Anyways, taste many more Canadian wines in the future please…

Awesome episode.

QOTD: Honestly, I have always wanted to have my own wine shop, and someday I hope to make that dream a reality…so I would want to shadow Gary V. It would be a great experience.

And Obama all the way.

Very entertaining show… although I felt Pypes was trying to force it a little bit… just wasn’t natural like Gary.

Awesome show! Gary your dad should be a regular as a strait man!! I have your dad in the third round of a ten round bought against Conan — I mean seriously who would bet on the red headed Harvard grad?

Wow. What a friken show!. I skipped over and glad I went back to see this one. Definitely Pipes was the draw here. Great seeing Sasha again along with Mottster. Hey Mott, you need to practice the swirls man.

QOTD: Who would I shadow, that would be you Pipes. You’re so hot! Nice job on the show. Clearly comfortable infront of the camera and very easy on the eye. Thanks.

Sasha, early to mod 60’s. And I’m thinking it wont be Hilary. Although Id like to see Bill around Washington some more.

Great Show, Gary. Loved it.

QOTD1: I think he’s in his early 60s. Let’s say 63.
QOTD2: I’d want to shadow a famous winemaker, like M. Rolland.

Awesome show! And YAY for CANADIAN WINES!

Q1: 59
Q2: I’d love to spend a day with Alpana Singh. She’s the wine guru for Lettuce Entertain You, the Chicago-based restaurant group. I’d probably learn a lot about wine and about the industry.
Q2: Obama’s odds are looking pretty good these days

Great episode. How much wine do you give people before they come on? Am jelous of the trip that Pipes is on, how much fun.

The Osoyoos Larose is on our wine list and we were the first to list Canadian reds in our area, along with Mission Hill. Love the wine (even if it is waaaaaaaaaaaaay too young to drink now) and Gruard Larose is a favorite of mine (the 1990 is a must try if you can find it a decent price now).
The Vincor/Groupe Taillan link up has great potential.

QOTD 1: Dont know but being Gary’s Dad is sending him grey
QOTD 2: My wife, have no clue what office culture is like
QOTD 3: Bothered, will miss Bush’s stupid comments to the world

Obama!!!! WE need to start thinking green!!!! Anyone who who doesn’t believe that we are at a crossroads, is most likely uneducated. Think of your grandchildrens future!!!!! OIL WILL RUN OUT!!!!! We don’t want them drilling in the Arctic National Preserve. We need to change , not the environment!!!! We are what’s wrong, so let’s make it right!! If we keep up the rate we are at, our greatest wine regions will change, for a fact. Please consider doing something positive!!!! LIVE IT, LOVE IT!!!!!
