1993 Beringer Knights Vally. AMAZING- Cost me $18.00 drank like a $75.00 Bordeaux.

Another great episode. Love to hear your thoughts on the greats and older vintages.

Making Mint Juleps for tomorrow. Maker Mark? Knob Creek? Jim Beam?

That was a stellar show!! You were on fire. It’s awesome and educational to see such rare and interesting wines. I am so impressed with your commitment to the VaynerNation, while rubbing elbows with the big boys, you make time, and go far out of your way to provide us with the privilege of seeing this experience.

QOTd. The closest thing to epic wine, and I assume you mean older wine, would be this year drinking a 1990 Moulin Touchais which was the most balanced desert wine I ever tasted and thoroughly enjoyed. Part 2 – hanging out with family and seeing an old friend.

QOTD: I have never really had a epic wine. Still in the just getting into the game. This weekend is fulled with study from Law School Finals. Oh Boy. But its my last semester, so there is a silver lining. I’m telling you Hog Heaven is the best. Have Fun.

looks like you drank some serious vino at lunch. really cool. nice.
QOTD; 1962 Chateau Latour, the cedar, leather, and smoke aromatics were amazing. the dark fruits taste of the wine was unbelieveable. an absolute home run when i had this last year. still could last for another decade or two.

QOTD: The last older vintage wine which was epic not just the wine but that I tasted with you. It was only a week ago on the Thundercruise, which was the 1996 Leoville Barton. The most recent besides that one was an 83 Margaux and for a 26 year old wine again the color was surprising extremely dark and just a complete appreciation for aging wine.

Is it me, or is it a little gross to drink out of the glass and then pour it back into the bottle for someone else to taste. Please remember what’s going on in the world today. (don’t drink out of someone else’s glass and wash your hands! Looking forward to the shows next week with some legends of the wine world.

YOU are the man. Great show! Good to see you a little tipsy. We know what that’s like. Thanks for not dumping the best wine of the day.
I’ll never forget the 1985 Kathryn Kennedy Cab I had in around 1992. Back then it was 50 or 60 bones. Now 100 won’t touch it.

Nice show and cool sink!
QOTD- Had a 2000 Baccio Divino Cab/Sangiovese awhile back that was a great bottle of wine
This weekend, while the wife is away, I will be playing poker and lots of it. Have a new mortgage to pay for (first house!!!!) so I need to do some winning!
