    I watched this episode on U Stream and had a whole different perspective. Great episode. Wish I could afford these wines.

    Gary V speechless? While there is no way in heck that I can split with a buck-24 for a bottle of wine, I certainly have no problem watching others enjoying it. Your static air and 96 score says it all.
    Football? I’ll take a major pass. GO CAPS…………..

    Thanks for all you do for the world of wine.

    @ Scottie P–as a lawyer involved in wine shipping litigation (I worked on the very first federal lawsuit to challenge these ridiculous laws), I have to say, the wine wholesalers have a whole lot more political clout than we mere mortals do. It sucks, but that’s the way it is. But don’t give up the fight–get your fellow PA wine geeks and enthusiasts to lobby the state legislators. The wholesalers may have money, but they don’t get to vote. File lawsuits, do whatever it takes. Write letters, make phone calls, start up a state version of Free The Grapes and get lots of members. Get them involved. Get your rich friends to make donations to campaigns of state legislators (while complying with state and federal campaign finance laws!). Do not give up hope.

    Go back to the spikey hair. You can go to the scalped look when you are older.
    How about some more shows on affordable every-day type red wine with good value.
    Smell it first!

    Gary, great show, more burgundy shows would be great! It seems harder to learn about burgondian (sp?) wines than any others, shows focused on burgundy would be a great help

    Keep the short hair.

    QOTD: Pittsburgh. I’ll save the pats for later.

    Oh, so you think you’re finally going to do the 2005 red Burgundy episode, huh?? Yeah, we’ll see about that… Glad to see this one, though! Man, I LOVE Burgundy…

    I definitely like your hair longer. You look like a punk now. ;-)

    QOTD: Who cares! I know the Oregon Ducks can’t lose to Utah State! Get ready for 70 points…

    QOTD(1): definitely longer – sorry GV.
    QOTD(2): Detroit

    GV – when are you going to do the Cali cult wine episode? Really curious whether those bottles are worth the astronomical prices they’re getting for them on release.

    I my lord. i was digging burgundy for a while and then i had a GC. it was a village wine form 02 and it sang to me. it was humming my song. i was so happy that i had i god size rack of burgundy in my cellar and it pushed me to buy more and more as i went on.
    there is a great quote from a poet i am blanking on but it goes like
    ” i forget the place, i forget the girl, but the wine was chambertin”
    enough said

    Gary,
    I was wondering what kind of glasses that you use for your tastings. Do you use Reidel? Also, do you find that the you use the glass that is typed to the wine that you drink?

    Please give me a link for that lovely burgundy that tastes like cherry juice, i can’t wait to try it!
