QOTD: The first t-shirt, it was the best Christmas gift I ever got.

QOTD: the wristbands- functional & stylish

QOTD: the one-bottle tote bag … i never got one 🙁

Truth in advertising, the dog ran under the couch when you got excitable with the whole Digg spiel just like she does during thunderstorms.

Killer show, if you could figure out how to bottle that energy you’d put Red Bull out of business.

‘fess up, how many watched that drip of wine go all the way down the label on the Cambiata? Twist the bottle as you end the pour dude to keep the focus only on the star of the show.

QOTD: The bull in the antique shop because it has my favorite wine munchki.. er, merchant on it.

P.S. – Okay I really like them all but you seem especially needy for approval today.

P.S.S – Okay I really don’t know what that sharkfin/guitar pick thing is all about in the wine glass but I’m very grateful you ditched the rotating GIFs.

QotD: Most certainly the deer/cherries T…absolutely awesome.

Okay, first I love the show gary…hot stuff.

I don’t know if you’ve done this or not, but I’d be really curious to see what your personal wine cellar / other storage area is like…then again, maybe I’m just a peeping tom.

My favorite line: the reference to shizzle. Can’t get me enough wltv…

I now continue my regularly scheduled lurking regimen…

Banyuls, great with chocolate!

Hey Gary, I’m surprised you didn’t mention the tannat-Uruguay connection… To my knowledge, Uruguay has claimed dominence over the tannat grape much like Argentina with Malbec….. The first tannat I ever had was an Amat tannat from Uruguay, and was blown away by the cherry/meat/leather/tobacco and under control tannins on that wine…..

Bossman, That “sharkfin/guitar pick thing …in the wine glass” is the commemorative WLTV/SF Party logo.
QOTD: The SF glass.

QOTD: I know you do not want to hear it but I am liking my Oak Monster Tee and my wife who LOVES pickles really likes her new Pickles tee! 🙂

QOTD: the vanyiak tee is the only tee shirt I will wear in public.

Nice to see some new stuff…
QOTD – No question….the Vayniac wristband. I wear to when I play bball and it gives me that extra little ugh…..know what I mean?

Thanks for doing tanat. I will be hunting one down before the year is out.

Really bringing the Thunder today.. Great episode, definitely got my #1 Digg…

My favorite schwag so far is my Oak Monster shirt, picture is coming soon.

Qotd-wristbands rock the hizzy
1. Arneis is probably the only grape i have yet to find an ounce of affection in my soul for.
2. Had a tannat at tablas creek, and you arent kidding about how tannic and deep they are!
3. YOU BRING THE THUNDER! Keep it up….you are officially DUGG

It’s a toss up between the special edition Canadian Vayniac hockey puck (I am a pucker for tannins) and the t-shirt emblazoned with, “My mom and dad wasted thousands of dollars on wine from WLTV and all I got was this stickin’ ‘ol t-shirt.”

heyy gary!! thank you for the shout out!!! I really appreciate it!!
and QOTD i would have to say that is the big screen, i like that
keep the good work!! thank you!!

Gary- You got me. I don’t believe I have had any of those grapes. The TannAT sounds especially interesting.

QOTD- I like the 2 bottle tote. Free shipping as I recall.

Big thunder@wltv today GV. You were en fuego! Made me sign up and digg you! Nope never had those wines, but am lusting now.

QOTD:Just love the free stuff. You, you sharing yourself and your knowledge, free wristband, free shipping, free wine, free love…well, not exactly but close. Anyways, it makes me want to buy the wine, drink the wine and get some more schwag.

Another great episode. How long do you think the 04 Cambiata Tannat from todays episode would last in the cellar? Do you think it would be worth buying a few bottles to keep around for 20 or 30 years like the homies from the SWF do? Interesting show great stuff.I gave you #1 Digg .Qotd I love all the new tees acctually all the tees are top notch.later

I am an iTunes subscriber, so I just did the appropriate thing to do. I also just digg this ep, because it seriously broght the thunder. That Tannat had an incredible color and looked so yummy. I have a bottle of Uruguayian Tannat in my cellar, and I intend to save it for some 10 years. I’ve had it with me for one year so far. QOTD: Oak Monster tee

Good show Gary.

I bought the pickles tee because I like pickles a whole lot so that’s my fave schwag. When will you make the “wine tastes like poop” tee?

Gary, in the trend of trying different varietals, try a Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, from the grape prugnolo. For instance, try Canneto Vino Nobile Montepulciano 2002, WL code 9778. Thanks!

I love black chocolate
