As always a great episode.

Personally I like it longer.

Interesting show – I did not expect the 2003 to be that profound – at least as far as your notes and score seem to indicate.

Side QOTD: the longer hair is a better look for you dude. My wife confirmed this as well since she stated, “he looks like a weasel with the short hair”.

QOTD: Whoever is playing against the Jets.

Probably the long hair.
Nice show, Gary. Burgundy is just a difficult guess for me when it comes out determing how it will develop. Beyond Jadot, I’m a little in the dark. I look forward to more Burgundy shows.

Awesome show Gary – I’ve never had a Burgundian wine and I think that should be my next thing to try after a Tokay.

I like your hair at the inbetween stage. Not too long and not too short! But its your hair you look good in any stage!

Such a shame I can’t buy from your store anymore – these laws suck!

long hair. Anyhow nice to see a Burgundy show. I was I had 125 bones to fork out. Time are tight. I really would like to pull some burgundy into my collection. To save for a long time.

Gary, now we’re on the same wavelength…GO PATS!!!

However, (QOTD:) I think Dallas will have no trouble with a banged-up Cleveland Browns team, though my WR stud Braylon Edwards should have a stellar day.

Great show Gary, thanks for helping me infuse HUSTLE 2.0 into my life.

Great to see big enthusiasm about the wine. I personally like the shorter hair with the scar, it makes you look tough.

QOTD: Redskins, how bout them apples?!

Yeah. Longer.

Football? What’s that?

Ah, Burgundy. More, please.

Are you now a member of the New Jersey State Penitentiary Wine Tasting Club? LOL. Still wishing you could ship to IL.

Looking forward to seeing you on Sept 20 in IL.

Gary,

Who’s giving you your haircuts? The state?

P.S. Dallas is the lock of the week because while it may take a good team to beat the Cleveland Browns, it won’t take ‘em long…

I got nothing but straight-up man love for Gary V … I ordered a bottle of 2006 Esmonin Estournelles St.jacques Gevrey Chambertin mid-episode… I had to, I absolutely love cherry juice… Looking forward to popping it open over Thanksgiving weekend. Keep up the great work, can’t get enough of the show…

Cool Episode. Thanks Gary.

Wine Not?
Well, bummer, just as I was getting caught up on WLTV episodes (first week back to school is rough, you know!) I find out I’m 2.5 hours too late. Oh well, you win some, you lose some!

Thanks for the burgundy episode, though! You don’t often get speechless!!!! Wish I had some of that wine right now!

The hair is good either way…

Football? You’re asking ME? No clue….sorry…..

Really nice episode. Just had a few burgundies, too expensive but the few I had were all experiences in themselves.

So sad…been leaving comments religously and didn’t get to this show until after 7pm. I did leave my comment before I watched today’s show if that matters.

Great job on this one, GV. The ridiculously complicated laws and by-laws involved in what makes Grand Cru, 1er Cru, single clos, Village wines, and simple Bourgogne, is further mixed- up by the who’s whos of grower- producers, eleveurs, negociants, etc. One Bourgogne at $20 is simply not the same thing as another at ,say, $50. It is strongly recommended that Vayniacs do a little fishing around the web to be well informed before you spend the big bucks on Burg. Your time will surely reward you.

QOTD: The hair is fine…either way!
