    Nice ep.

    I have been saying a lot of nice things about the Sequoia in the forums. Someone told me they had a problem with brett but I sure didn’t sense that in the ’03 or ’04.

    QOTD: House

  • Wil

    Oy, solid start of the week G-to-the-V-skillet, keepin’ it real for the Napa Valley thugs.

    QOTD: There are so few bastions of real comedic smarts left in television, but I’ll be shot if I didn’t say that 30 Rock is one of them. Ditch the rest and tune in for the second season on Thursdays at 8:30 on NBC.

    QOTD – The Office season premire on thursday! Can’t miss it!!

  • Danny C

    QOTD: Gary, here’s what I would do…forget the season premiere’s (Grey’s would be my vote though), turn on the dvd player and watch eitehr “The Blues Brothers” or “Footloose.” Get into the action. Actually, scatch that, watch “The Blues Brothers!”

    Vayniacs (and Lurkers) – We’re on a mission from God.

    Also, I am a little disappointed about the St. Clement, because my brother just got my a bottle, but I’ve never had it and I am still going to try it. We’ll see…

    I’m out!

  • Orion Slayer

    Wow, first time I’ve already had a wine Gary is trying for the first time on the show! I liked the Merryvale (The “V” out of the top of the label is cool, too!)

    QOTD: Got to be “Heroes” (but only because LOST doesn’t start for awhile.) Of course, there’s always “Dancing with the Stars” ALL female!

    I think I’ll get my hands on some of that Sequoia Grove Cab. Gary is dead on, though, when it comes to what Napa is like now. A good buddy of mine (Paso Lurker) just flew up there for a few days and came back complaininig about how crowded, glitzy and overpriced everything is – too bad. Paso Robles is still the REAL DEAL – great, honest, boutique juice on the cheap. My first Wine Library order is set to land at my doorstep tomorrow (Innocent Bystander and Nec-otium) – thanks for the free shipping, Sasha!

  • Gary, next time on TV gotta go with the
    2004 St Clement Oroppas Cabernet Sauvignon
    Then you can bring out the Blackberry Jam, Black Pepper, and Big league Chew!!! (revisit Ellen with that one!)

    QOTD:Gotta see Heroes if I skip hockey tonight.

    Voted for you on the survey, just wanted to stick it to those super snobby wine guys, and besides you’d be way more fun to be around anyways.

    QOTD: Sorry, can’t afford cable so I don’t bother watching too much TV…

    I had the ’04 Oroppas and some Dooker Boxer over the weekend. After the Boxer the Oroppas tasted like lemonade or Latour how ever you want to interpret that.

    QOTD: The Daily Show! Great stuff night after night.
    QOTD for Gary: What is the longest time you’ve spent watching CSPAN?

    Come to think of it… Gary should make an appearance on the Daily Show. Imagine the number of CKC he can pull.
