What no intro?? Boy this was the most comments to date I think.. Have had the Togni at a wine tasting event I believe, good stuff, and did drink a bottle of the 2002 Aida, was great, drank it a year later than this episode. QOTD-that's a stupid question. http://www.winelx.com

    Togni does make some superfly wine. No Argument here.

    QOTD: Tait Ballbuster- I don’t know why.

    Happy vay-cay G-Man

    I got a chance to check in a little while after the show finally went off. I could basically get a pretty accurate timeline from reading the comments. Just watched the “traditional” version now. Yeah, Lance Mehl was great but Joe Klecko had a better name for a Jets player.

    Enjoy the vacation, GV. Florida is an OK place for one.

    QOTD What I like to drink when the server goes down is anything SHIPPED FOR FREE from Wine Library.
    It will definietely take the edge off. Thanks Gary for the great episode and free shipping. I will take advantage of it. I can’t wait to see what we get when the server works.

    I just got back in and you are still AMAZING! Wish I could take advantage of the free shipping! Bummer I live in PA…

    You are STILL the BEST!

    When something CRASHES I find a nice bit of ZIN…works for me!

    Hey Gary… Did you ever come to the conclusion as to wether or not you will be throwing a couple of episodes here and there while you are gone? or are you just forgetting about us and leaving us cross armed and cranky watching the clock tick? I’m kidding… enjoy your vacation, but seriously… no episodes???

    Hey Gary – missed the live part (some of us have to work!), but great idea. Hope it gets up for next time. Enjoy your break and thanks for the free shipping. I say “thanks” but JESUS CHRIST – I have to stop buying wine: it is going to sent me into debtor’s prison!!

  • Dave-from-Katonah

    GV-Even with all the technical difficulties, still a great effort and yes…an instant classic. I saw the taped version, but at least the Togni was worth it!

    Thanks for the free shipping!! Now I just need to add a few more bottles…Maybe even a Togni or two. I’m gonna have get more storage!

    I had that Ercavio tempranillo tonight..mmm mmm good. That Tait Ballbuster is truly good juice, too.

    So what was Erik’s big announcement, habitat for humanity? What about the countdown? Any hint of what it’s all about?

    I agree w/ KAHUNA…I just don’t get the labels thing.

    Can you recommend something as good as the Togni for under $50??? Scion? Amizetta?

    Have a great vacation. You deserve the rest!

    Glad you tried something new. Thanks for the free shipping – not necessary but a kind gesture. Have a great trip. And if you consider # of comments a metric, today may have been your best show ever. You should disappoint more often…

    Hey Eric K.! If we could get a countdown to expected return of fresh WLTV, that would be fantastic! …unless you’re in the PR as well…boss away…what’s the rest of that saying?

    Sorry the episode didn’t go off as smoothly as planned, but I’m sure it’ll be a good learning experience. I was logged on and spent maybe 45 minutes waiting, and apparently gave up about 20 minutes too early. I’m home now from my Friday night poker game and watching the replay. Get ’em next time and have a fabulous vacation. The free shipping is either a blessing or a curse, as I was doing pretty good on my effort to drink more wine than I bought until I reduced my surplus by about ten cases. This will probably set me back somewhat.

    If Gary doesn’t come popping out of the van ready to club me with a Clone5 on Monday morning when I get my delivery then I wish you and your family a happy vacation. Now remember when in Puerto Rico if you are getting a massage dont ask for a happy ending- i think it has a different meaning over there!

    Gary,
    Nice try. I caught the end of the show after being shut out initially. I was somewhat skepitcal that your server could actually deliver live streaming video, but was impressed that it actually happened after all; congrats to your crew for scrambling to put it all together. Better luck next time. Thanks for the free shipping, and have a great vacataion!

    QOD: The Bitch! (Chris Ringland, winemaker)Cheap wine, great name. The name itself is good for lots of moods.

    Gary, Thank you for the effort and of course, the free shipping. Enjoy your well deserved family “vaycation”. Don’t worry about WL and forums, we’ll hold down the fort. ;)Remember when your parents would leave on a trip and the kids would say, “Don’t worry Mom and Dad, everything will be just like you left it when you get back”? Wooohooo!!!

    Gary,
    Hats off to the effort, and better luck next try. As comment 418, have we broken some kind of record? Looks like I missed a real party with people waiting for the EP while the server crashed. Ah well, the ’04 JL Chave Cotes du Rhone was drinking very nicely after 4 hours decant. HAVE A WONDERFUL VACATION GARY. Much deserved. Cheers, CK

  • Safe travels and thanks. Since I opened my bottle of Dunn (amazing wine) and started drinking too early didn’t get this live but even the taped show was great. For a borken server I would recommend a bottle or 2 of MD 20/20 maybe a Friday vintage. Didn’t know you were a Mac person, now I like you even better. Hope it wasn’t a Mac server that crashed. Maybe consult with Steve Jobs before the next live taping. With your popularity you are probably close to his level by now 🙁

    I could not be here b/c I had to go to work exactly at 4 pm. But I love this episode. What a show! what a bargain! what a friendship! And I must say that in this show you presented two very SERIOUS wines. That was impressive. These two wines are NO JOKE. THANKS! We wish you a safe trip, and a very well deserved a delightful vacation. We WILL miss you. A lot of YOU, with a little bit of us, Gary.
