  • Hey

    Another nice show.

    QOTD: For me 2009 is a year about moving on, so there’s lots and lots of things I want to do. Get my blog back up and running, do a couple of marathons, meet as many cool, new people as I can and do my best at work.

    Cheers

  • Wow, that was an excellent video. Do I have any interest in wine? No, not at the present. I’m in Thailand where their idea of a good wine is called Beer Leo.

    Gary, you’re amazing. Nice motivational video. I’ll feature your site on my Aim for Awesome blog here shortly (within 2 weeks as I get it written up). Thanks for the experience! Best of life!

    It was so cool hanging out and drinking some wine with you guys in San Francisco. I was really blown away by the burgundies Alex brought out. This was a very special experience. For a wine newbie like me, to be introduced to great wine like this was really eye opening.

    QOTD: I’m going to learn more about wines, spend time with my family and our new dog.

  • Great comments all around, I’m very humbled. It was a lot of fun, despite being completely surprised by this after a 13 hour day.

    I opened another ’92 Leroy Pommard when I got home so my friends could drink along as they watched. It was also very good, Leroy is so consistent.

    Gary, I will shoot you an email pronto. Let’s definitely keep in touch. Thanks again for everything.

    Best Regards,
    Alex

    Another fun little on the fly episode. I quite enjoy these and wouldnt mind seeing more of them in the future. Fun guest too. Good tight little show. Speaking on that wine being a baby, it just made me fear some of the wines that I need to cellar for 10-20 years… God I hope I pop them at the right time….. always a crapshoot. QOTD: Take greater chances in love and hope to find my lady fair.

    I love old wines, especially Burgundies. Yeah, I agree that 15 years old is not very old, but like you said, when you consider that the vintage was largely panned, it is pretty impressive.

    QOTD: I think I will try to stimulate the economy some more.

  • Interesting episode with the little camera. It’s a little unfocused on the wine, though. I was much more interested in what was going on in the background. Anyway…

    Qotd:I thought finishing my awesome PhD and coming back home to my girl-friend. Instead, we’re heading for a crisis… 🙁
