Great show Gary!

Those Thundercats look like Vultureman, a bad guy, and Snowman of Hook Mountain, a good guy. So it’s actually 2-1 in favor of the heroes!

QOTD: Recently made my favorite dinner in recent memory with my wife and brother in law – NY strip steaks, beet and cheddar cheese risotto (unusual I know, but wonderful), buffalo mozzarella and yellow tomato salad, strawberry rhubarb pie for dessert. Wines included ’04 Vechhio Chianti Classico and ’03 Chateau de Ferriere which were both great and matched the food perfectly.

QOTD: Right now, I’d gotta say a really good rack of BBQ ribs with the 2003 Yatir Forest cab (try it, Gary-trust me).

DougieFresh (Doug Hill) check out epsiode #127, no sliders but Gary celebrates with obscenely excessive gifts from the staff. The first 3 bottles ring in at under $15 in total, but the winner of the taste off has an obnoxious QPR.

Thanks Bossman… I’ve seen that episode.

WLTV Classic!

Thanks again Bossman!

Hey Mr. V
Great show.
Some people are so negative hu?

QOTD: A dinner with some french friends to celebrate the end of our PhD writing…and we were all glad this was over !
Starting with foie gras and Sauternes, Château Lamothe 1986. Then some seafood and a wine I don’t remember any more, followed by horse meat, mushroom sauce, potato gratin and an excellent 1996 Château Haut Marbuzet from St. Estephe. With the dessert, a Coteaux du Layon. I will remember this for a long time !

QOTD: We like to cook salmon (wrapped in foil) in oven, some peppers over it, squeeze lemon juice and put on top some parmessan melted in sweet cream (opposite of sour cream 🙂 – it’s amazing! Then usually we take some new world (mostly Chile’s) Chardonnay, for example Montes Alpha, could be even Chile’s Sauvignon Blanc as they are not so “screaming” as NewZealand ones are. We – that’s me and my beloved.

FWS Gary!!!!!

I don’t know if that applies but I felt like it fits here. NY Pete and SS would certainly appreciate that.

You go get em Gary!!! You know we have your back!!!!

Loved this episode!
Sic em Gary!
The main irritating thing with all the haters and poncey exclusive members-only wine nerds is….
How is it ever a bad thing that more people are becoming interested in wine and trying new things?
Does it really matter HOW they are becoming more interested?

I’m sure the wine makers don’t object to having more drinkers.
I’m sure the wine publications don’t object to having more subscribers.

yadda yadda.

Love ya Gary, keep it comin!

Good going, Gary. You know, so many people have forgotten that drinking wine is fun! Oh well, I guess we should feel sorry for these wine snobs that think that all us Vayniacs are idiots. They’re really missing out…too bad, so sad…

Wine & cheese, one of my favourite combinations!

What sort of closure/top was that on the German pinot blanc? It looked cool!

This is just a test:

Couldn’t agree with you more about your bouquet comment – the nose knows, fruit is waay overrated. Wish more wine today was like the type of wine made in the 60’s in Bordeaux and Burgundy!

Hope you and my son have a great trip to wine country this weekend – he can be an actor, too, as you know.

Gary – You haven’t turned me off yet. But I must say that I enjoyed your earlier episodes a lot more. They were more about the vino.

Take a self-critical look at the Slate article too. Still love you though.

Thanks for all the great wine tips, the education and for cleaning out my wallet.

Luv ya, luv your show.

We just did something very similar in my ISG WFCL2!
Thanks as always for a great show! You and Natalie MacLean are my visions of what I want to be in the future 🙂

Here is my question for you all.
What cheeses go with Sherry?

(In the summer I switch to sherries for my night cap, in the winter I do Ports.)
