OK Gary, I’m crying “Uncle”! This Albarino episode has flushed me out of the bushes. Ive been lurking for over 200 episodes, but albarino is enough to turn any Peeping Tom into a doorbell pusher. My wife(Mrs. Pinot Grigio)flipped out upon tasting a Salneval Albarino. It’s going to come in handy this summer on the Chesapeake Bay. Thanks. Give your teacher sister a big Kudos for me.

Gary-Thanks for all of the wine education!!!!
Will try Albarino(especially the Nora) SOON!!
🙂

Thanks for showing us a new grape. I typically like the ones I’ve never heard of more than the big boys (cab, merlot, etc).

Why didn’t you try any of the great Portuguese alvarinhos?

Hi Gary.
Very nice video …. I’m a big fan of Spanish wines.
I enjoyed your albariño tasting, and I am going to search for more tastings of Spanish wines you might have done on you website.
But ….
I wonder why you didn’t taste the 2006 vintages.
Albariño is a wonderful grape, but the wines you tasted are made for fresh consumption. So I think that if you would have tasted the 2006 you would have been more enthousiastic (still).

Congratulations with this new way of educating us on wine!

Great episode, Mr. Vaynerchuck. I just tried Albarino so I checked out what you had to say for you are the expert. Thanks for doing an episode on this!

first Albarino i tried was called LICIA – same name as my wife. She grabbed it on the way out of a wine store in Rochester, NY. It was killer – refocused my love of white wine. It is the best wine to pear w/ creamy soups.

In my opinion, Albarino and White Rhones are the best white wine on earth….followed by the wines of Loire – then white bordeaux.

Did I totally miss the QOTD? hmmmm…. Well anyway another episode enjoyed by all. I guess thats just me since Im the only one in the house that watches. But no matter. Another white ive never heard of. Def. something I need to check out to expand my tastes.

kuchrenyav .,.name backwards………great video…..
thank you

I just hat a Pazo Senorans from 2006 yesterday during a wine tasting and found it pretty one-dimentional, although it is very well made. Usually I like the Albarino grape but tis time I kept away from buying the Pazo at a price of 14?. I decided for a Basa Rueda 2007 (Verdejo, Sauvignon, Viura) at a price of 7? which I liked a lot more.

Is that a “Mod” (hope I spelled that right) action figure with you on the show? Awesome!

I actually opened a bottle of the Nora tonight and loved it; then I decided to see if Gary had ever reviewed it. Surprise, surprise: Not only had he reviewed it, he loved it, too. It is exactly as he described it. Definitely give it a try, everyone!

kuhcrenyav – close enough? I needed to know about Albarino to give as a gift and had never heard of it before. Can’t wait to try it myself! Thanks so much for the help. My host apparently loves this wine – now maybe I’ll find the right one in the store – and perhaps won’t sound like a complete idiot when I mention or talk about it ! Thanks for the great help ! PS if you send a shirt – pls send a large and I’ll give it to my host. Thanks again! A
