    QOTD: I’m a selective sneezer. I target your audience. No bulk mail. I work it into conversations/gatherings, write the link down for people, e-mail close friends/family who I know drink wine, and have pretty much forced them to check it out, and make a scene if they haven’t. The buzz is out. People are starting to say “I’ve heard of that… I need to check it out.” You’ve got quite a thing going on here, Gary. Truly special.

    Another Top 100! Nice episode, nice mix of juice. QOTD – A lurker, got to stay under the radar. You never know when other lurkers might attack hermits and seezers.

    QOTD I am a sneezer, any one I talk to about wine I tell them about wine library tv.

    QOTD: Definitely a sneezer. I’ve even had the good fortune after driving all the way from Boston to meet Gary at Wine Library the weekend before last Christmas. Wow, what a madhouse, wall to wall people in the store that day! If anyone outside of NJ hasn’t been to Gary’s store, plan a roadtrip, it’s well worth the effort. Who knows, maybe you’ll be lucky enough to meet the man.

    p.s. be ready for a killer handshake!!!!!

    Q:What tastes four wines in the morning, two wines in the afternoon, and three wines in the evening?

    A: A Vayniac in wine country.

    QOTD: At first a lurker, then a hermit, now a sneezer and spreading the WLTV love, baby!

    QOTD- I Sneeze your show out to everyone like the germs to a highly contagious Belarusian fever! Hell I even physically force my friends and family to come into the store with me and we all bother Ian once a week or so.

  • Justmarsh

    What’s up Dave Coulier? hahaha

    I think this is the first episode where’s I’ve already tasted half the wines. cool! I found the Garrigue a bit underwhelming though. I remember it being solid, but nothing I was jumping up and down about. I love the Kim C tho. I think the 2006 is better than the 05. Such a great summer wine!

  • Paint remover? Man, I was about to click “buy” on that wine, until I heard that comment. When I hear that, I think high VA (volatile acidity), which really grosses me out. I had to dump a bottle of one of my Languedoc QPRs the other day because of that.

    QOTD: Sneezer Baby. It’s all love in the Wilmywood, North Cacalack represent. I think Rudi is better in the whites. Nuf said

  • Matt Czinger

    QOTD: Definitely a hermit until I get a shout-out/ my show-suggestion/ &c. on the air. Then I’ll be sneezin’ like it’s flu-season (me to my friends: “Look at me! Look at me!”). C’mon GV, do a Côtes d’Nuit episode! It’s not fair that us old world people have to listen in from out of the room so often (even though yesterday’s was a relief).

    Nice shirt, Gary. We like that shirt. AJ goes to BU, as in Boston University? cool. QOTD: Kind of like a hermit, but not too much. I’ve spoken about WLTV, but I don’t go out spreading the wealth, haha

    A lurker by nature, you bring out the sneezer in me, although I do use a napkin so as not to spray indiscriminately.
    How did I hear about you in the first place?
    From a discriminating sneezer named Lars.

    Definite sneezer!

    I recommended the site to a friend halfway through watching my first show.

    I have told most of my friends who have a love of wine about the show. I’m going to get this thing going in the St. Louis area.

    My only concern Gary is that when any good thing gets too big it must lose some of it’s original charm. I hope you remember what got you here and stay true to your incredibly loyal and dedicated audience. I have confidence you won’t sell out.

    Can I be a snermit? I have told folks, but not too many. And I’d love to spend more time on the boards than I can during the day.

    GV, feeling your score on the Kim Crawford for sure. Picked one up after the WS came out, and it felt waay more one-dimensional than a 92 point wine should. It was good, just not that good. I wasn’t as psyched about the Kim Crawford as the 2005 Huia, for example.
