EP 161 Petite Sirah Wines After a Big Loss

Wines tasted in this episode:

Petite Sirah is it the same as Syrah? Is Petite Sirah bigger or smaller then Syrah? Is Petite Sirah the same as Durif? All these questions and more will be answered by a sad Gary Vaynerchuk.

Just came back from Napa and tried some great Petite Sirahs, have had some over the yrs but maybe only a couple times a year, now I will seek them out more, not had these Gary drank yet. QOTD-too broad a questions, depends on what caused the sadness..Jets losing which caused you to shave would be a Cab. http://www.winelx.com

    You seemed so sad I decided to stop being a lurker and come out and tell you how much I enjoyed lurking the last month. I enjoy the bogle petite sirah when I need to be comforted since I know what I will be getting and for the price I can drink a lot. Will be going today to find the Concannon. Get into college basketball it helps the pain of football ending.

    Gary,
    I am sorry for your team loss.
    You shouldnâ??ve spit in this episode-that would cheer you up.

    I like Petite Sirah. Like you said thereâ??s nothing petit about it!
    I completely agree on Marietta. I think itâ??s just this vintage. I had their wines before and thought they were pretty good, even their blend with numbers, current is 41 I guess.

    Concannon makes pretty good Chardonnay as well. I may be wrong but I believe theyâ??re the first company to bottle Petite Sirah as a single varietal.

    QOTD:

    It doesnâ??t matter. The quantity does.

    Go for Grey Goose with you uncles!

    I would drink a wine made from bitter grapes.

  • Pats All The Way

    Tough game, the Jets played well until the lateral and then the wheels came off their bus. Still, they had a great season and should give the Pats a run next year.

    I would suggest a Two Hands Bellas Garden, any vintage to lift your spirits. It is a classic shiraz wit

    Cheer up and I hope you root for the Pats Sunday–they will need all the help they can get against San Diego. I will probably be drinking a Bella’s Garden Sunday night!!

    Hi Gary, The clean shaven somber Gary, great way to start the New Year. Jets had a great season!!!! What do I drink when I am sad? Does it really matter, I lift my glass and toast my famly’s “GOOD HEALTH”.Be grateful for the little things like Vinny Testaverde being a free agent next year.

    I drink Burgundy when I’m sad. I’m sad for you Gary. I was pulling for the Jets in Costa Rica. I’m sad too. As a Clemson fan, it’s been a tough year. But, for both of us, next year looks promising. It just feels an awful long ways away.

    Gary, As someone once said, “it’s time to grab the bull by the tail and face the situation”. I believe you should show the world how magnanimous you are, in both Jets victory and defeat, and offer free shipping. No?, well it was worth a shot.

    Great act Gary. You could have been a Ohio SDtate fan!!! Hey Bay Bay Jinx, do you have experience with Mr. Boone? Pretty tough post considering your team didn’t get in.

    Honestly, as much as I love wine, I stay away from alcohol when I’m sad. A sad drink leads to a sad drunk.

  • I’m coming out of lurker status too… I hope you’re back in form after this show… The Jets made it this far BECAUSE of the beard so you’ve done them a great service keeping it as long as you did…

    QOTD:

    I’m a goose fan myself whenever I’m a little down, but only if I can’t find friends to hang out with and cheer me up.

    Hey Gary, so sorry about your Jets. But hey, the silver lining is that now you can get excited about The NEW ORLEANS SAINTS!!!! Even if they don’t win on Saturday (God forbid), we’ve still had a wonderful season down here in Louisiana. So nothing to be sad about here! Who Dat say they gonna beat dem Saints?

  • KenP…I know your not trying to pick any fight, I’m cool with your comments.
    I still don’t understand what you meant though. I’m not sure where I was trying defend Gary on things. If you look up in the top ten I was actually making fun of the episode with the Ferris Buehler reference.

    Looks like the Pats are showing a glimmer of what they had in that legendary 2004 season. There’s no shame in losing to the superior team and eventual super bowl champions.

    Brandon M,
    You’re right. I dropped the ball. A thousand pardons.
    By the way, has the reply total ever exceeded 200 for any episode?

    Nothing helps you sink deeper into depression than some Wild Irish Rose wrapped in a ten year old brown paper bag. At least it used to help me get a little sadder. Sorry about the Jets.

    Unfortunately I cannot have a lot of sympathy…a lifelong PATRIOTS fan; but I won’t rub it in too much…I promise.

    I do have some empathy, however…I felt the same way last year when the Pats fell on their sword. Hang in there!

    I love Petite Sirah and enjoyed the episode…thanks.

    QOTD: I never drink when I’m sad; just sends me into a deeper funk. But once I start to recover I like a BIG BOLD OVER THE TOP CALIF CAB to boost my spirits.
