I liked the show a lot, but I really don’t see why you are pushing your non-wine related books on the show. Congratulations nonetheless.

What’s the deal with viewers leaving unconstructive comments criticizing the show? Positive, constructive comments are one thing, but after 600+ episodes people seem to be taking things for granted and feel like they deserve something for their money. Normally, that is fine, but the last time I checked the show is FREE. If you don’t like it, don’t watch. Don’t be a jackass and bite the hand that give you a free education.

Congratulations on the new book GV!!! I wish I would have seen this episode sooner.

You know, it’s been a couple of weeks since i watched the show, and this happens time and time again, but I come back to a great show and it’s like I absolutely know why I come back. Especially to hear these amazing analogies, like baby blueberries on E at a rave with glow sticks. Only Gary Vaynerchuk.

QOTD: Last night in Florence crushed it pretty hard, and i’m looking forward to doing all over again tonight!

I really like the Bandol wines – Domaine Tempier is definitely one of my “go to” wines. I have not had many Priorats, although the Solanes was really good and I still have a few in my cellar.

QOTD – 2 recent events – My daughter finished her first year of college with a 3.5 GPA (not too shabby) and my son has been described as having “perfect pitch”, he is very musically inclined. Family is always #1.

Great episode, instead of the wines crushing it, I think you crushed them.
Love it when you get really excited about something.

Dianne at Blizzard customer service totally CRUSHED it! Had a problem, was a little pissed, called, was calmed down, smiled, fixed problem, hung up and now I sing the praises of Blizzard’s support team. If there is one are for Americans to get their heads out of their bungholes and start “crushing” it in it’s customer service. I’m simply appauled at how utterly horrific the customer service is in California (both Nor and So).
…
Man, don’t even get me started. But some dishonorable mentions go out to Figueroa Hotel, L.A.; Gateway Marriot LAX, L.A., and Stix, Pebble Beach, Monterey.

CRUSHING IT shout outs to: La Bicyclette, Carmel-by-the-Sea (great food to boot), Granzella’s; Ricardo’s, Chico, Ca….

I had to come back to remember what you said about the Bandol. Having it now with grilled pork loin and a Provencal Marinated Fennel salad you hit it right on the head with your “new car smell,” “blueberries dancing on your tongue” and smoooooth finish. For my palate, it is not 95 pts but I’m with you on 92. Gorgeous Bandol. Man o man, the reason I love you. Hit it out on this one.

QOTD: That’s easy. It was when Tom and Lisa from NJ invited my fiancée an me for dinner in Fort Lauderdale the day after the cruise despite Tom having a terrible cold.

Mot dont quit…get even.
Ok, so I’ll admit I have not been the dedicated Vayniac I once was. School keeps me busy and broke students have little money for any extras, sadly this includes vino. However, as a business student I can always open my wallet for educational investments. Thank you for writing Crush it GV. I’ll be sending you a review in the coming weeks.
I mentioned buying wine has been tough lately, however I still have the spirit to explore wines and expand the pal. I will be spending next semester in Japan, and thought it would be appropriate to dabble into some Saki. See where I’m going with this?

QOTD: The Green Curry Thia lunch I had last Tuesday.
