Was in NYC last week and went to Clo. Great wine bar. Loved the variety of the selection and the price range. The owner was very friendly and helpful. I would recommend eating before going though as there were not many nibles.

QOTD: Without a doubt, the Water Street Wine & Coffee Bar in Peoria, Illinois. It’s the complete package, great people, great food, nice choices in wines, and something new to try now and again! Love it!

QOTD:
I like Vintage in downtown Philly. It’s where I actually got my wine start.

I know a lot of people like Tria in Philly. There are two locations for Tria and the one on it’s either 11th or 12th street was VERY snobbish. The waitresses were very stuck up and seemed to perpetuate the stereotypes that make the average joe steer away from wine. I’ve heard good thinkgs about the Tria on twenty something street.

Isn’t wine overrated? I would like to see some more Beer appreciation instead.

Barcelona in New Haven, CT. Delicious Spanish wine, great tapas and a chic, but inviting atmosphere. Love the table with the fireplace in the middle. It is always packed here on weekends.

Whoa! Great bar for oenophiles! Loved looking at it. Did make me feel a bit “mechanical” – especially the machines pouring your wine for you. Where’s the love? Where’s the passion?

QOTD: Fave wine bar? That would be Cru~A Wine Bar… Many locations, but MINE is in Shops at Legacy, North Plano – North Dallas area. If you go there tell Annette that KathyD says hello!

cool episode, glad to see you exploring NYC a little. it really makes me want to check out Clo while i’m here.

QOTD- definitely Tria in philadelphia. not only do they do wine, but they have speciality beers and cheeses as well, which makes for a great all-around experience.

The Wine Cellar at the Rio Hotel in Las Vegas. If you’ve been to Vegas, I am sure must have visited
Very knowledgeable, friendly, down-to-earth staff – affordable to out of the park prices – a little short on the food side. Love it!

I saw your episode on Clo and had a appointment near Columbus circle on Wednesday. My daughter and I tried it out, it was amazing. The people there were great. They thought you were great. The wine was great. When I got back to Rochester, I told my wife, we will be going back next time we are in NYC. Thank you for the tip.

Iron Bridge Wine Company in Columbia, MD is nice. More of a wine shop + restaurant. Buy there or drink there for $10 corkage

Terroir in San Francisco (and not just because Terroir NYC doesn’t play vinyl).

Really cool wine bar. I would love to go.
GV – there may be a technical difficulty in your daily e-mails. I always watch for new shows, however lately the bottom show reference always refers to #687. Therefore, I am WAY behind in my viewing. I thought that you were on vacation or getting to know your daughter better.

QOTD – 6th & Vine – Winston-Salem, NC

Very unique episode. I love the features of this wine bar.

QOTD: A little wine bar in Spokane, WA called bin98twenty. They have a nice selection of local and international wines.

Thanks for the tour Gary. It was interesting to see this place’s flashy “tech” approach.

QOTD; StoneHome Wine Bar in Ft Greene Brooklyn. Best wine list and perfect menu to match it. Amazingly romantic garden to enjoy it in

Hi Gary – great episode and great camera work by (i think) the bartender! is ‘Clo’ short for ‘clone’?
QOTD: Crush Wine Bar in Toronto – Jamison and Eric run a fun list that is always changing
‘97 Campoleone I sold here when it popped at $25 – a steal and a half!

Cork in Dallas uptown is fun! It’s a wine shop that also has a tasting center. They have their tasting bottles in those same kind of cases as Clo. They also use a store card to purchase wine, but that one you load up ahead of time. They have several tasting stations that are themed–regionals, whites, reds, collectibles, staff recs, etc. And they change it up every month or so. It’s a fun way to try some wines you might never have considered otherwise.

I love Terroir in NYC but my current favorite is a local wine (and pizza) bar in Norwalk, CT called Fat Cat.
