    GV!!! It’s been awhile….needless to say, I don’t have Internet (yet) where I’m working at my internship in France. But it’s been a lot of fun and I’ve even showed my internship supervisor your show! He definitely was confused at first, but he liked it. Now you’ve got more fans on the Continent!

    QOTD: Wish I had the access to a ‘69, but hey, all in good time.

    mixed feelings on this post, it seems a bit as a ‘commercial”. I like to see Gary on a neutral field, really expressing what he feels and taste.

    A nice golden, aged Sauternes, would like to try some day, sure! Was that the question?

    Great show Gary. Love Sauternes.

    You should do a show on Monbazillac to offer less expensive alternatives to Sauternes.

    Nice quick episode…and what’s this that you’re blending a reserve ‘07?

    QOTD: I wish I had that money and that type of cellar!

    Good show!
    I would love the opportunity to try a wine of this type at that age.
    My closest experience was a German Riesling Auslese from 1976.
    I loved the way it developed into such an interesting wine.

    Gary,

    Can you get Brett on the show, I hear he loves wine. Maybe, you can do a show about wines in Mississippi! I hope he makes you better, & even if he does it will be 1 year. What was management thinking, do you improve 2-3 games and then he retires again!! 1 step forward, 3 steps back (get a new GM).
