Huge # of comments, maybe the most up to this point. Don't have that many Bordeaux in Cellar (over priced), much more Cali Cabs. Nice to own a wine store… QOTD-tonight (Cab) 3 yrs ago?? http://www.winelx.com

    Gary was only joking about the T-Shirt contest. There’s no such thing.

    QOTD: I don’t yet know what I will drink this evening. I had a 2000 Massolino Barolo recently, which was a pleasant surprise after a string of badly over ripe, out of balance, high wine spectator score 2000 barolos.

    Great show, Gary. I love the way you actually take time to read the comments and give shoot-outs to people. Oh, by the way congrats SteveK, fatherhood is the most exciting and fun experience in life.

    QOTD – I sadly will not be partaking from the vine tonight. I must work all evening to support my drinking habits.

  • Hi Gary, did you realize that when you use that great big wine glass, it makes you seems like a little kid, stealing into the parents’ wine cabinet? Just wondering if it seemed like that to you…

    Glad to see you back from Bordeaux and energized!

  • These four Bordeaux — if you average the prices — come out at an attainable $77 a bottle. Not bad.

    Tonight, I am drinking a Domaine Schoffit 2004 Alsatian Riesling, a very straightforward wine. I really appreciate getting this for $16 at Wine Library, and then seeing it elsewhere for up the $24. I hope you’re making a profit so you can stay in business.

    Haven’t watched the episode yet,, but getting the idea that you’ll be asking what I’m drinking tonight?? Just received my allocation of Alban today,, but the little babies probably need some quite time after their long trip here, so maybe some of that Spainish juice I got from WL a few weeks ago?? update later……

    I’m going to try the G-vine gin in a martini. I had a little sip of it on Sunday night and it was interesting. A little Asian spice heavy and a touch sweet. I’m interested to see how it works with vermouth. I’m also going to try the Brooklyn Brewery’s Local One. Perfect for a night like tonight.
