Hi Guys,
As you should by now the popularity of Gary Vay-ner-chuk goes the borders of the US. I would like to get some of those funcky merchandise as the T-Shirt or the book, can you guys arrange something for us to purchase that stuff!!

By the way, are you working with a Hollywood producer now, starting sequels!!

Cheers

That was a low blow, but I really liked the idea for the show. Keep the blind tastings coming.

MAN! Talk about leaving us in the lurch! Gary must have said something really non-PC, or legally actionable for him to do this.

We must have satisfaction!

Love ya, Gar.

You have got to be kidding me! Funny, very funny, but annoying at the same time. I’ll be back and there better be some answers.

Well, I’ll be sure to check out Episode #478! Who doesn’t love a wine mystery?

When there were 20 seconds of video left and Gary hadn’t even started going through the wines, I started getting very worried.

He better show the freaking results today.

As for the Jack Bauer comment – that’s exactly why I only watch 24 on DVD or when I have the entire season on Tivo. I hate this “to be continued” crap.

Here I am playing catch up watching past episodes and I finally get all the way to the current episode and you pull this? I would love to see that the 71 pointer was a $100 ringer slipped in.

Hurry up and release the next episode!!!

Great show, by the way.

Yo Gary?!? Perhaps one of your best shows ever, working strong through the wines most people start their “serious” drinking on, and then…. what!! Why did you cut it off? Really not so nice, especially since what I love about your show is its honesty and candor. Please don’t bow to some pressure about your ratings – you’re way above that. You rock and I I’m looking forward to the thunder crashing through

Only god knows what’s going on, but I really hope It’s not the vayniac’s cab; It would be very sad…

Now I just hope the new show is released soon. Please Mott!!!!!!

Gary,

Only way I could accurately describe how you left us – BLUE BALLS! I will make no assumptions or speculations as to “why” you cut it. I’ve read that you might have possibly picked your own wine as a 71 or even that NONE were cabs… 1) I don’t think any wine created or over seen by someone with your palette will allow a production of wine that is a 71. 2) I think you would know the difference of a cab and another varietal – although there are always exceptions (pinots with full bodies and such..)

Don’t keep us waiting too long please…

hmmmmmm…no explaination….makes ya wonder????

Glad that I won! Thanks for the book. I got it yesterday in the mail and I read the whole thing last night! AWESOME!!! You write just like you talk, I could hear your voice through the entire book. Thanks for putting more info out there in an enjoyable format!! I think everyone should read this book and keep it on their shelves for reference use or just for enjoyment! As always you capture what is important in life….family & friends and sharing wine with them!! Thanks again!

Enjoy Chicago…its a great city!

Hehe… maybe the wine Gary panned was the Vayniac Cab.

The same thought occurred to me that thecobalt9 expressed, the 71 pointer was Vayniac Cab. Obviously Gary is trying to suppress the results. But you donâ€™t have to be Columbo to realize that thereâ€™s something wrong with that. If he was really trying to cover up something, he wouldnâ€™t have shown the episode at all. Gary likes to pull our strings so he can have some fun comments to read while heâ€™s away.
Gary, I got to see your store last Friday, very nice. It took Â¾ of a tank of gas but I got some wines I wasnâ€™t able to get anywhere else. Obviously Iâ€™m from one of those states you canâ€™t ship to. Iâ€™m looking forward to seeing you next week in Philly. Great show!

500 bones for that Seed show. Sounds great but… it’s 500 bones.

WHAT?! I’m sure there’s an explanation… but what? Maybe the battery ran out? I’m confused…yet intrigued and antsy to learn the truth of the blind tasting!

I was noticing the time count down, how he only had 2 minutes left and was just going to blow through the scores and unveil the wines at the end. I was getting progressively more nervous and then… nothing. And I just bought the book to get a wristband. Dang.
