  • MW_DM,IA

    Always wondered about Chianti, it’s great to learn(’cause knowledge is power?)…

    QOTD: Aside from WLTV I only watch Rev3 shows and Next New Networks shows, diggNation is my 2nd favorite next to WLTV.

    Geez! Can you let me finish my dinner before I have to rush and order a case?

    I feel for you Jets fans. they managed to make my stinking Eagles look like they had it together (some of the time).

  • Legend

    finally tempted out of the lurk zone-just wondered if any of the wines in the store have tasting notes of the honesty of your shows for buyers to read?-being over in England i have not had the opportunity to visit your store-will have to remedy that in the future
    QOTD-is there any other show worth 15-24 minutes of your time every day?

  • Reeve

    QOTD: For videogame fans The 1UP Show is pretty good. If you count podcasts that you just listen to, I like NPR’s new “hipper” morning show, The Bryant Park Project. But the only one I watch EVERY DAY is WLTV.

    GV,
    Sangiovese is a great grape when done right. The last wine sounds awesome. Love the tasting notes.

    Gary,

    I love the vino Italiano! There’s something about Italian wines that gets me all excited like I’m going on a first date. I’m infatuated, it’s that big of a deal. Sometimes I think my girlfriends get jealous. Have a good one buddy.

    QOTD: I would seem typical that I say Wine Library TV, but it’s the only show I watch on the internet. Big ups for being the best!

    VAYNIACS LETS HAVE A CUDDLE FEST FOR GARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • DC7

    Thanks for the armpit show! I’m going to Barboursville Vineyards Sat. for a tasting and hoping for serious thunder from the Octogon!

  • Gary – WLTV – I helped the monks at http://www.chicagomonk.org set up their podcast, I suppose video/audio may be the turning point here.

    This weekend I did the blind wine tasting – 15 bottles, 15 friends, turned out incredible, thanks!
    Surprises:
    Oriel Chafteneuf du pape – talk about barnyard! But more people loved it than hated it, so there are weirdos out there
    WInner- we had the same bottle in the beginning of the evening and at the end (but didn’t know it) – beginning scored well and evening it won the night as best wine.
    BTW- we had a couple 94 parkers in there, but the winner was –
    Alamos Malbec 2006

    Unbelievable, thanks for your hard work for us!

    Long time lurker, first time poster.

    QOTD: Coast to Coast AM (coasttocoastam.com) brings SERIOUS thunder… been listening since WAY back in the day. I listen to every show (8 a week).

  • Flavio

    Good show. I’m going to try to drive over from Manhattan on Saturday…

    QOTD: I’ve checked out other shows on the web, most of them about wine, but WLTV is the only one I watch… and I’m sure that the hosts of all other wine shows watch WLTV too. They’re probably lurking around right now!

    Sorry been lurking lately. Great episode. Sadly enough just spent three weeks in Tuscany and didn’t taste any Chianti’s that thrilled me (didn’t drink any Riserva’s though). Found a lot of them thin and flabby. Not as balanced as an average Dolcetto, or Earthy as a Rosso di Montalcino, or luscious as a Vino Nobile de Montepulciano. So sadly enough, stuck in the middle. QOTD: love that happy slip

    BTW had a great time sorting grapes with Stu at Crushcamp and I’ll send you a photo from our latest blind tasting party.

    Great finish to the show. Slow start, though. Armpits I can get. But what’s English pee? Is that after too much gin?

    Thank you SO SO SO SO SO SO much for calling out Ruffino!!! I’ve had the same opinion of the Riserva Ducale since the first time I tried it. Your moxie is very much appreciated. ^_^

    Thanks Gary so much for backing me up on Ruffino! I one time called it the McDonalds of Chianti and the lady in the wine store like to fell out. She pointed out how big a wine producer they were and I said the same is true for McDonalds and hamburgers. Big don’t make you better.

    QOTD: There are other shows on the internet? I thought WLTV was it!
