    I vote for video #1, Vincent Price and Peter Lorre would be proud of his wine tasting skills.

    A spoof is supposed to be funny and not EXACTLY like the original show, so I vote for #1. #2 is too identical to Gary V, not creative enough! #3 – how dare you perpetuate the rivalry between the Pats and the Jets! Shame on you.

    Good show!
    I VOTE FOR #1, though #3 did the best impersonation, I think the spoof quality of #1 gets my vote.

    Gigondas are some of my favorite. Big fan of the Cotes du Rhone wines in general.

    This has nothing to do with this show, but I tried a Chinon for the first time a few days back. Good stuff!

    Awesome show Gary! I vote for #3!

    QoTD: I’m not that clever to come up with a game :P

    QOTD: WLTV Drinking Game- Each time you tell Mott to link something up, take one drink. If you love a wine and have Mott taste it, take two drinks. If you HATE a wine, and make Mott smell or taste it, take three drinks.

    I vote for #1 for sure!! All the way!! He’s the most intelligent, creative and funny!!! Hope you win #1. Poor guy had to drink tap water, sugar and all those toxins to do this show. He better win!!!

    Loved the cleverness of video #1, but I have to go with #3. He has Gary cold. I loved every minute of it.

    Another new wine for me to go out and try, thanks Gary. Thats plenty of talk about Tecmo Bowl, I would take you on without Bo as well. I don’t need him. Like I said, I have two copies of the game, that already beats you.

    Video vote: 3
