Gary

Another great episode! Was wondering if you have ever thought about how the efforts of you and your staff touch people. Your juice will be present in holiday celebrations accross the country and possibly other countries helping create memories and enhance the celebration. I think it is representive of your personality and your buisness sense. Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year to you and yours.

GV lets work on the accent ei! VIVA PORTUGAL.

Yes everybody, old Gary is back!
And he really listens to us.

Gary,
I have to disagree with you on â??trust you own palateâ?.
If I did, Iâ??d steel be drinking white Zinfandel and Manichevitz.
You can start trusting it once you get to a certain level of experience.

Great episode.

Gary,
I agree with you on the wine list question. It really needs description.
I had oysters today at one place, which I frequent and don’t want to name here – let’s just call it “GC” in midtown if you know what I mean.

I was about to order a bottle of Vouvray and asked the waiter “Is this chenin blanc dry?” The guy say with all the confidence in the world “Yes”. And of course it wasn’t. It was off dry!
I didn’t feel like sending it back since my wife liked it.
A simple line on the wine list wouldâ??ve sufficed.

Btw, would you send it back?

I’ve always been a huge fan of wines from Duoro. Thanks for yet another great episode (love the “Friday Couch Chat” format.)

Warmest wishes to you (Gary), your family, and the entire VaynerNATION this holiday!

What a horrible typo at the end…ENRTY??? Terrible, just terrible. And how in the world did that one win? Man oh man.

FISH 23 JETS 8…on a last second TD and 2-point conversion to save a shutout and save some face!

Thank you answering some questions this episode.

Youre a junkie!!!! You cant stop those Quote un Quote hand gestures. You are doing one handed gestures now. Someone please help GV with this problem.

Great episode, I just moved to TX from Miami….I don’t think I could actually hate the Dolphins anymore than I do now after living there. Although I am a Giants fan (sorry) I’m gonna hafta go with J-E-T-S 27 Swimming mammals 16. Have a great weekend.

Gary, loved the episode. Will have to use ask.winelibrary.com more often now that I know it is there…knew it was there but I didn’t know how important it was. Thanks for the montage, was great to see some vaynerlove on the screen.

nice job waibeans, any chance we can see a still shot of that online?

Sorry Gary, Dolphs 20 Jets 7

It’s for your own good. You can’t grow a beard. Beards and wine do not mix. Name one prominent figure in the wine world with a big bushy beard. Name one. You would be gross and vile on WLTV slurping wines through your beard. Not to mention how having all those flavors and aromas of yesterday’s lox and whatnot mixed in will totally screw up your palate. No one will trust you anymore. No one will watch. Actually, Dolphs 31 Jets 3. That’s even better. The chastening experience will prompt you to never ever again miss a day of shaving.

The only two guys I’ve met in the wine business with beards are Stuart and Charlie Smith of Smith-Madrone on Spring Mt. in Napa. Great guys, great beards, great wines. But they don’t eat lox. Oh, and Ed Sbragia of Beringer has a beard. Can’t think of any others. Maybe a good QOD– people in the “wine world” with beards…hmmmm

Why did you take out the Itunes Opiton? I am so mad about this….

Sorry Gary…

QOTD: Jets 21 Dolphins 14

Gary, I wanted do respond directly to Grasshopperâ??s questions as well as your comments about the spreadsheet (SS). A few weeks ago there was a THREAD created by Brooklyn Paul (BP). The topic was whether or not (there was a POLL set up) I deserved my own Monikerâ?¦this is different than the screen nameâ?¦it is the designation under the Avitarâ??s on the Forum (i.e. Wine Newbie, Oenophile, Wine Connoisseur, etc., etc.). This had already been done for MarcT and for Jason Hicks (this is an important pointâ?¦itâ??s not as if it had never been done before, in which case, I would expect some people to be against anyone getting there own Moniker (Hi. Julius ;-Dâ?¦luv ya buddy).

BP was good enough to start this THREAD saying, â??As we all know, our buddy SS Chris created the famous WLTV spread sheet. And he still provides updates for it today. Iâ??d say he deserves consideration for a special title.â?

As you can see, it was, specifically about expressing appreciation for the SS and the work that went into creating it; as well as the continued efforts to keep it updated. I believed it would be a relative no brainer as NO Vayniac puts in as much time as I do for something that I get nothing for (GV will confirm this). Well, to both my and BPâ??s surprise, the votes over the first few days were decidedly against me (it has since swung marginally the other way). Poor BP felt a need to apologize to me for creating the thread. And let me be clear that this is not about the special name at this pointâ?¦I donâ??t care about that. I do care about what I do being appreciated however. Part of what I took from this was that perhaps the SS wasnâ??t as valuable as I had thought and, at the very least, both the SS and I werenâ??t feeling much if any appreciation (yes, the SS actually DOES have feelings)

So, it was at this point that I discontinued updating the web SS. I just wasnâ??t feeling much love from the VAYNIACSâ?¦.allâ??s I need is just a little LOVE for the ALL of the time I put in (or I just may need to take my bat, ball, SS and go home). Gary, perhaps you could weigh in on this and maybe prod the Vayniacs a little hereâ?¦they need a little VaynerPROD. (thatâ??s for you MichaelP)

HAPPY HOLIDAYS and HAPPY & HEALTHY NEW YEAR to everyone (except those who voted â??NOâ?) 😀 😀
