This was my first taste along…..I did not enjoy the wines but am happy that I tried some new things. Everyone is different. I am glad I had a opportunity and will do it again.

hey gary, I have been a lurker since August 2007, but today is my 21st birthday, so I am coming out of lurkerdom to say that as much as I love your show, I can’t wait to start trying some wines and making friends with my pal’. kind of bummed because my buddies flaked out on me and I didn’t get to go out drinking tonight, but your show brightened my day, as it always does.

QOTD:

Yes, good show Gary. Had a number of Roses while on holiday in France last fall. These are not the wines of our youth.

Loved the show, I really wanted to see what happened to the Mike Weir wine and the results were awesome. Also really appreciated your “soapbox rant.”

GV, always telling it like it is. That is why we love you!

QOTD: Awesome show, as always. One of these days I will buy and try along with you. I did buy a wine from a past pack, and am looking forward to popping it open while I visit the archive. Thanks again for everything GV.

Good show today. I have no furmint.
GV talked a pretty big game with that Tokaji, and then just brought a 90-point score… I was expecting bigger than that.

You brought the thunder today…great show. I haven’t had any dry tokaji. Local stores don’t carry it so I’ll order that one from you.

I did, however, recently try some dry rose for the first time due to your insistence. Had a lunch at Bottega del Vino in NYC and my wife and I really enjoyed a 2005 Tenuta Guado al Tasso Bolgheri. Perfect match with our salads.

Your energy is awesome and I loved this show…even though I will open the bottles at a later date and watch it again with friends

QOTD: AWESOME! Wish you could do one of these a month.

??? Got the Anniversary Pack but not the swag which I asked for…next time

QOTD1: Nope, I haven’t…

QOTD2: Yep, I did. And I wish I’d gotten the chance to buy the pack and taste along. That’s thrice now I’ve missed out on it! I’m sad.

QOTD: Of course I liked the show. The only time I don’t like the show is when you say ‘radool’

I love to try new things, BTW. I’m on the hunt for white asparagus…..

GV, you are helping us change the wine world, without a doubt. The show was one of your best, lots of passion and excitement. Am bummed that you sold out of the wines before I could order. I will hunt for them locally for sure.
Keep up the great work.

Thats a silly question, of course I liked the show. I would have liked to have tasted along, but there is always next time.

QOTD 2: Yes, but, liked last weeks head to heads better.

I like the taste along concept, but how about revealing to us what’s in the pack prior to purchasing.

Loved the show (love every show)

I bought the pack and really enjoyed drinking them virtually with you. Please do it again.

great show
despite the fact that I did not get to taste along with you.
stupid shipping laws *grumble-swear-grumble*

I’ve told my roomates about WLTV and you can add two more Vayniacs.
You make wine fun Gary.
thanks.

wristband pic’s to come tommorow.
more than likely on the “spacedog” than my tattoed left arm.
you’ll see.

First QOTD- No I have not, although recently tried a dry Sauterne, will give this a shot. Second QOTD- Was good although got the sense you rushed through the descriptive part of each wine, not as in-depth as usual. BTW, any minerality on the furmint?

Give me a holla when you visit the Niagara Peninsula. I’m just across the border in the Niagara USA wine trail. Always looking to taste in Ontario.
