I say, old chap, quite refreshing to have a break from that plebian football hooligan who usually runs this show. I personally find a nice glass of white wine refreshing on the 3rd day or so of a test match. Besides, if someone bumps your arm and spills red wine on your white cricket uniform it just ruins your day. So dreadfully unpleasant, that. It will never do.

Ta, ta for now. Must go chat with the butler about which claret to bring up from the cellar to serve with tonight’s guinea fowl.

my good man, top o’ the day to you. glad to see you back, sir. the immense complexity and knowledge you bring to the table is without peer (as opposed to that pee-er GV). you need some french/german/italian/austrian classical music to start and end the show (along with a pipe, unlit of course)–the country of origin of the music complementing the origin of the wine of course.

QOTD: 90:10 but trying to bring more balance, sir.

Kevin C nailed it–got to play up that niles angle . . . over-the-top-pretension.

Gary’s so naturally demonstrative and animated….. it must have killed him to act so subdued for the whole take! He was as still as a 95-year-old sitting on a hemorrhoid cushion. Bring back bouncy Gary!

The more sir Gary appears the more the viewers appreciate the real cool Gary. We can not tolerate sir Gary more than once a month, please… 🙂 Good character!!
QOTD: RED (70%) / White (30%)
Cheers

QOTD: I think 85% red (mostly Zin) 15$ white (mix of Sav. Blanc and Riesling) I miss my GV!

Sorry that was supposed to be a % sign.

30/70 R/W Not because I am contrarian but because I thrive on the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer. And to those who poo poo whites, German Rieslings are the worst, don’t buy them, if you have to have a white, Charles Shaw Sauvignon Blanc is the way to go. Enjoy

95% Redhead. . . . . . .

Sir Gary, supreme leader of the quintessential wine palate society, you need some knights:

I hope this works!!!!

Very funny Frazier Crane. You even dimmed the lights for a serious effect.
I wouldn’t mind you can bring this character back once in a while. Next time give him a double-blind taste test. Now release the hounds and make sure they find Gary. I’m sure he left a trail of wristbands in the woods.

56.58% Red
41.46% White
1.96% Rose

Gotta love that Cellar Tracker.

P.S. That Sir Gary guy is totally creepy.

Gary, love your show, but twice with Sir Gary is enough for one lifetime. Very witty, but just can’t watch again.

I haven’t seen many kayaks in the Himalayas, have you?

QOTD: Historically 90/10, but lately I have been trying more whites, hmmmm, wonder why that might be??? So we’ll go 70/30.

QOTD: I drink about 80% reds, 10% ports, 10% whites from October to May, and 40% white, 20% beer, 10% rose and 30% red during the summer.

LOL! Saw this episode late and wasn’t even sure I was allowed to be watching it. I spent the evening hanging out with my friends drinking “Seven and Seven” and placing quarter bets on a B horror movie.

QOTD: For me its probably 65% red and 35% white.

GV – Like you too much to come close to enjoying this imposter! QOTD – 80/20whites

Gary, I thought I heard you say somewhere that champagne and other sparkling wines are a staple for you, so I was surprised to hear you say 99/1 reds.

For me, maybe 90 reds/10 whites. For me, reds will probably always be the classic, more profound, more health-giving. Whites seem like an offshoot of reds but can be great in their own right. In the whites, most of the time it’s sparkling wines and champagne — nice buzz, goes with every food and occasion. Or maybe a really smooth white like Pouilly Fuisse, or a minerally Riesling.

I am just starting to taste and learn about the whites, have much to learn. Maybe I’ll start with a 10-15$ Tokaji once you find it for us!

Thank you, Sir Gary, for this amount of nobility and intellect in wine tasting…it was truly refreshing. :} (Actually, kick-ass episode!) QOD: About 99% Red, 1% White.

What a nice surprise. I think that you should develop Sir Gary a bit more. Sometimes I do like the education and seriousness of wine, but only on occasion. After watching this episode I went back to watch another more “lively” episode. How about an episode where cool Gary and Sir Gary are comparing wine together!

QOTD: 75% white, 25% red. I have been exploring more reds lately.

QOTD: I know in the summer I drink more whites than usual, but I think reds are the most interesting wines – more to think about and talk about, more comforting, like an old friend. Difficult to come up with a ratio.

I shouldn’t watch this at night, I laugh too hard and stay up too late. I think the Oregon pinot glass is a little funny looking, actually. It is the Oregon pinot isn’t it? Restaurant series? My favorite is the Montrachet glass.

Gary,
Freakin HILARIOUS…this is in my top 5 of all your videos. Releasing the hounds while smoking a pipe? Gary is a peon?! Rowing a boat in the Himalayas???? Seriously funny stuff man!
QOTD- 70% Red/ 25% White/ 5% Rose

Cheers
Mike

Thanks for that suprising episode. Sir Gary nailed it 🙂 QOTD: 90%W, 10%R, 5%Rose round about

75% red, 15% white, 10% rose. I just never seem to come across whites that I’m really hyped about. I guess I see or read things about so many reds, that I want to try, that it overpowers my desire to buy whites. But, I do love white wines about as much as reds. Go figure.

Sir Gary, you really brought the sound emitted by rapidly expanding gasses along the path of electrical discharge of lightening today. That could just be the three glasses of chenin blanc talking, either way great show.
QOTD- When I started it was all red, now I try and swtich, I usually only drink one to two bottles on the weekends so since last weekend was red this weekend willl be white. My cellar is slowly becoming 50/50, I am really starting to enjoy experimenting with the white stuff, I even have some bubbly pink stuff in there as well.

QOTD: It’s really hard to say… especially b/c during the summer I down so much Rose. But I’d guess 68/32, favoring the reds.
