Gary-

Watched an old episode and someone commented about the Zachy’s “WineTaste TV”. It sucks! Those guys are so boring, and they make me appreciate WLTV so much. I watched one episode and will never watch again! Those guys are terrible…wearing suits and all…I love your youthfulness and your quirkiness. You rock!

Must go down as a WLTV classic. Great episode!

Thanks for the heads up on wine from the Languedoc region. Hope the Les Verrieres is as good as you say it is!

G,
You must have mixed your meds again.
QOTD: soon
QOTD: rainbow bright? who is she some stripper? 🙂

huge Languedoc fan. i’ve been a fan since a wine class that i took two years ago and the guy heading it up was all over this stuff. thanks for extending my interest. enormous QPR region.

QOTD : when i can get my hair to do that.
QOTD : Rainbow Bright – The first time i was scared by American Consumerism.

Ho-ly-Crud! Are we talking about wine here, or crack cocaine? Gary, you look hung over. Were you drunk when you did that to your hair? Too much wine last night and forgot to shave?

Well, whatever happened to you, kudos for going on tape just like that. I mean, let’s get real — with all the wine that you and the Vayniaks drink, there are probably quite a few that look just like you do today. And they deserve a little recognition for that — it’s a beautiful thing. Let’s not forget we’re obsessing on alcohol here.

It’s so much fun to watch people tweak out on the Internet!

QOTD: As soon as you fix that Robert Smith Cure hairdo of yours and shave your neck! This is national television!
Rainbow Bright: Cheap-ass wanna-be Strawberry Shortcake rip-off.

Rainbow Bright was also a popular hallucinogenic back in the day. Window pane had nothing on…oh, wait… there’s a Shetland pony in my wine cellar. Not again! Gotta go.

Big G.- THANK you for a great Ep., and I will DEFFINITELY be grabbing a wine from Languedoc-Roussillon on my next trip to the ol’ wine shop.
Also- the hair looks ok, but there is a reason why they make those plastic electric outlet plugs- to keep kids from huting themselves, or to keep bored adults from inadvertently giving themselves a new hairdoo. Stay away from the outlets, Big G.- I worry for your health.

QOTD #1: I’m a TV/Video production major and I GUARANTEE that I could win the contest with the help of my room mate (the best editor I know) if we weren’t trying to finish our final work this semester to graduate…so my answer is: after graduation, if there is any other contest, I vow to win.

QOTD #2: Suddenly the lyrics “Butterfly in the sky, I can fly twice as high…” -that’s right- the theme song to READING RAINBOW came to my mind- Lavar Burton and all! (host of RR, aka Lt. Commander La Forge in Star Trek). “…Take a look, it’s in a book, Reading Rainbow.” …Wierd, I know- but THAT was one of MY favorite childhood TV shows…along with “David the Gnome.”

Another excellent episode. What happenned to you hair? Did you wash it with the TJ Cabernet Sauvignon ?

Great ep Gman . If thats what 2 buck chuck Makes you look like the next day , I’ll Pass with 7 ZZZZZZZ’s . Languedoc sounds interesting have to try it . Thanks GV

A “profound” Vaynerchuk hairdo. Beautiful episode, though. Les verrieres De Montagnac, the color alone is worth the twenty bucks, and everything else sounds so appealing too. I’ve come to a point in my life where I don’t like anything that has the name Calvet on it. Had a dissapointment two days ago that still has me pissed off. I mean, talk about a neck to neck competition with the two-buck-chuck. It didn’t come as a surprise, but this one really pissed me off. It’s also like french peasant’s wine, like you commented on the Domaine De Nizas. Thanks a lot for so much information, Professor Vaynerchuk

QOTD: Well…as a full time college student the only way I could make a video is without sound on my camera….or go to bust buy and buy a camera, make the video & return it….will I do that for you…I’d love to. When will you start shipping to Maine again? Ha…in all seriousness. I am just working on tracking down a camcorder. You should dig the video…we shall see.

Rainbow Bright….skittles. there’s my word association.

Shit….still in the double digits. Can’t a few others jump on the wagon to see GV into the trip digits???

Me thinks GV is going for the Yahoo Serious look.

I am sad. I was hoping to have this region all to my self. Thanks Vay-Ner-Chuck. Why don’t you have a facebook page and button?

Regarding the 2003 Mas Janeil Cotes Du Roussillon Villages, this was my comment last month in the forum titled Learning Languedoc:

“I’ve had this one and I would put it up against anything from the Rhone at twice the price.”

Gary, Check your acreage facts. I donâ??t doubt that Languedoc-Roussillon has more acres than Bordeaux does but I can definitely say that Bordeaux has more than 700 acres. You most likely meant 700,000 acres which is somewhere around 290,000ish hectares. Other than that, it was yet another great episode on some really great wine values.

Your hair; can you say Cameron Diaz in â??Thereâ??s Something About Maryâ??

QOD #1: I do things for you all of the time when I leave my insightful comments here. Iâ??m still a lurker though because I do not participate in your forums.

QOD#2: Rainbow Bright: Dolls and horses for little kids.

Good episode. Keep it up.

Hey Teen Wolf!

I swear, I saw the transformation begin to occur…must have been getting mad at the first two bottles of L-R! Don’t worry brother….L-R is still surfing the van, winning basketball games, and intimidating teachers with it’s red glowing eyes!

Fun episode…alittle more energy at the end, but I gotta tell ya….If ‘Big Brother’ ever makes a transporter like that…I’ll beam you over to have a bottle of Yquem…sound good?

QotD – I’ve been secretly giving the wines of your website tasting reviews…what else do you want man?

Word Ass. – Rainbow Bright = Dy-no-mite!

If you think Gary’s hair is outrageous in this episode, check out episode #33. He looks about 12.

OK…you were cracking me up today. Languedoc has some great values…hopefully my warehouse has the Mas Janeil and the Les Verrieres here. I’ll give them a whirl. If not, I’m sure one of our competitors has it.

Umm…I’m glad you were as amped as I was to see the NFL schedule. I like the Bears opening in San Diego. Everyone’s going to pick SD, the Bears’ll come home 1-0 and then start their run to the SuperBowl.

QOD#1: Well…I’m not lazy, like a said a thousand times, I don’t have access to a camera, and if I ever do, I’m going to film something thoroughly disgusting.

QOD#2: I know it’s some sorta girl toy probably with ponies or dolls that smell like candy and crap, but all I can think of is Light Brights.

Alright man…see you later,
T
GO BEARS!!!

By the way, nice hair.

Gary-
What can I say?
You got
CREATIVE
with the hair!
WOW!
🙂

In France Languedoc wines are no secret but I think you are in error about the acreage at 700 acres maybe square kilometers but not acres, Mondavi is twice that size in Napa alone. Having seen the size of these vineyards in Languedoc you are off by a factor of 1000 or more. These wines tend to be all over the place having gone from house to house tasting them and much of what has been imported has often been less than stellar even at the prices. It is pleasant to see good values again as the French wines have really suffered from the dollar collapse. I haven’t done another video because the one I sent in was so bad to begin with I couldn’t bear to do another. Light brigh…well my children had one, never knew what it was good for.
