Awesome episode. It just goes to show that you’re great even when it’s just you and a simple camera. I watched episode #621 yesterday (http://tv.winelibrary.com/2009/02/10/a-young-burgundy-tasting-episode-621/) after not having checked in for a while and I was once again reminded that you’re the best source of *interesting* and reliable wine education I’ve found.

Keep it up!

Haven’t had a Pomerol in a while. The ‘98 Lafleur Petrus and the LaGrave a Pomerol both rocked bigtime.

American Idol jumped the shark a while back, sorry.

Abandoning the Jerz and living the high life in NY, eh GV!?!

QOTD1: Wish it were larger than the size of a bean on the Bordeaux map, but do like their lack of pretentiousness.

Would love to try a Pomerol. Some day soon. I just had the Silverado Merlot that you recomended in the past, and it was very good. The label had changed so it musta been a later year. It rocked the hizzy with a “Black Jack” steak. Link it up!
I don’t care to watch Idol but was forced to the other night. I’ll pick the cute little girl in the pink dress.

QOTD #1: I have never had Pomerol. Going to put it on the list.
QOTD #2: I haven’t watched Idol since Sanjaya was robbed.

Pretty Cool that you did the show from the GV secret lair. I also like that change up with the short episode. We have been getting a lot of longer episodes. It felt like a little bit of info overload. Excited to see what is going to be on the facebook page.

QOTD#1 I enjoyed the pomerol I have had.

QOTD#2 I think Danny Gokey is going to win (good vocals and the likable personality) although maybe Adam Lambert the rocker guy though he has sick 80’s hard rock vocals. Check back in two weeks.

Nice to see GaryVee not liking a wine in his cave. Keeping it real…

QOTD1: Haven’t really thought about Pomerol since the last episode, which actually turned me on to some very good wine!
QOTD2: He who enjoys the wine most, wins.

Thanks for the shout out. I like this new format where you read the comments because it makes you feel like your living in a wine world democracy.

QOTD:I’m embarassed to say that I have not had one yet. For some reason Wisconsin doesn’t get very many at all!

QOTD: I’m over French wine. Too many rules. The wine world is so huge and there are so many innovative regions producing wine right now, and for good values, that I prefer to concentrate my efforts elsewhere. But I like learning, so good show!

If you’re doing BBQ, you’ve got to pair it with some tempranillo!

QOTD: I don’t think I’ve had a Pomerol yet, and I don’t watch American Idol. Sorry.

Gary! You don’t LIVE here in Jersey? WTF? That seems so wrong!

QOTD 1: I’ll answer when I know more about it.
QOTD 2: I love Allison and Angela! Either one could take it.

I’ve had Gazin a few times over the decades, but not recently. WHile I like Pomerols, they are generally too expensive for me.
