A big show as promised. One thing you didn’t mention is the need for proper storage. Buying cases of wine only makes sense if you have somewhere to store them where the temp and humidity can be kept near constant. Keeping them in the china cabinet or the pantry will make them age far too quickly, and the wine will be worthless in a few years. If you have a root cellar that stays cool, or you roll bug like Cramer and have a temp controlled wine room, great, but for those of us who move a lot or live in small apartments should buy to drink, nto invest.

QOTD: Ovid. $175 a bottle on the initial release? Still no reviews of it. In order to justify that it’s going to have be thought of right away as being pretty much a top 10 cult cab. Odds are likely that it will disappoint, even if it is a good wine. From an investment standpoint, I’d say that all the value is already built into this price. Chances are the price goes down rather than up, especially in this economy.

Fantastic! Thank you. Now I’m eagerly awaiting the posting of #500. Traveling during the summer is really messing up my viewing habits!

In some respects, Gary V is to wine as I am to online video. It’s part of my job to know what’s good. But alot of times that forces me to swirl, taste, and spit so I can get through the day and still have eyeballs. But I watched every minute of this show, some of it twice, and will likely replay it. This is so great!

I LOVE this show.

Is there a place to find all the ratings of the wine you have given. I was at a wine store the other day and tried to find one on my iphone.

The show was fantastic. Great idea to have Jim Cramer on the show – and really cool of him to come on. Obviously respects you Gary – outstanding effort. Also a subject some of us are interested in, whether we are putting wine down for an event years away or trying to accumulate a wine collection worth something down the road.

Kudos

Boo ya!

Gotta love Cramer and Gary V together! Great show. Good idea except for the part that I like to drink the wine and I am not real good at storing it..

But how do we get reliable values for older wines that we do have in the cellar? Thats what I would like to know.

This episode brought another lurker out, because it has me thinking about wine a little differently. I love drinking wine, especially exploring my palate. My family is Italian – we drink wine with dinner, sure, but we pour the first glass while we cook – including the ones just hanging out in the kitchen – and, well, I don’t want to rat out the lushes but let’s just say there’s a good bit of wine that gets drunk. And, yes, I’m always interested in a good buy because I’d rather be out $50 after a family visit than out $500. But I have never thought about buying wine as an investment. Never.

The main reason why I have not thought of it was touched upon peripherally in this episode. It’s about keeping the wine – i.e., cellaring. How much space could I possibly devote (that’s opportunity cost, right?) to bottles of wine? And that’s a concern without even considering what it might cost to create the right environment (temperature?) in that space. And let’s say I decided that cost was worth it. How would I transport the wine when I move, which I’ll inevitably do every 3-5 years for the foreseeable future?

I really really wish I had a response for the QOTD but I don’t! But I did want to leave a comment to let you know what an amazing show you had! I really enjoyed watching you this week [like most other weeks haha]!

Ya finally got this lurker to come out into the light GV. How could I help it with the power of one of the greatest money men out there joining forces with my wine guru of the small screen. Love the subject of wine as an investment, though I doubt any wine I purchase will last long enough for me to worry about its cash value.

Nice!
Wow 3 mad juices in 40 minutes. Did Jim paid for the wine before you corked them?

QOTD: I’d short Charles Shaw a.k.a 2-Buck-Chuck, like Ford (F) it’s going to $0. And like Ford no one will miss them.

Gary – What a great webisode with Cramer. The problem, however, when we talk about values of wine (which Cramer did not raise) is that there is NO MARKET for an individual collector to sell a bottle despite its appreciation. If I buy ONE bottle of ‘05 Latour, I cannot SELL that bottle 5, 10, 50 years later. Who will buy only 1 bottle? A case, perhaps at auction. It doesn’t matter what a bottle is worth, if I can’t sell it. True?!

Great energy from both of you! Not sure how the room could contain such star power and amount of BOOOOOOYAHHHHHH coming from the table.

Fun to talk about wine as an investment instead of just drinking it….but for now I am just a drinker.

Please have Jim back soon.
