QOTD: Never have to twist…wife loves you too !
Happy and Healthy Holidays to all and to the personal behind such a wonderful enjoyable show.

Merry Christmas Gary + Mott + Crew!

QotD – Actually I don’t twist anybody’s arm to watch this…i used to make my Fiance watch it, but she’s into CSI Las Vegas, so I just watch it by myself.

Wishlist Comment – A WL in Los Angeles or Orange County CA

WishList comment – I’d even go for a WL in San Diego!

Happy Holidays. I couldn’t wait until tomorrow. I had to tear into the wines now. Great show and very very educational. THANKS! Here’s my take on the wines:

2006 Callac Blanc – I definitely picked up on the grass and lemons and even the banana peel. I confused it with pineapple at first, but it is banana. I detect a hint of ethyl acetate (nail polish remover). Creamy smooth on the palate just as Gary described with buttery lemon. Most interesting white I’ve had in a long time.

2005 Lavagnac – YOUNG fresh fruity nose of cherries and raspberries. Nice fresh young fruit attack on the initial taste. I like the woodiness and tannins of this one. Slight earthiness on the roof of my mouth in the mid palate is nice. I wish the fruit hung on for just a little bit longer, but for $9 I’m not complaining.

2005 Moulin de Lavaud – I got cherries meet strawberries on the nose. Soft tannins and medium bodied. I couldn’t get the red pepper out of it. I enjoyed the floral woody spicy finish.

2005 Callac – Nice dark purple color. BIG nose of red plums, anise, and raspberries. You are spot on about the red fruits and roses. What a nice experience. Ends with a tannic dry wood that I like.

Thanks for the experience. Great selections.

Happy Holidays Gary.
I love the Thunder Show and tell my friends about it.
They love it too.

Merry Christmas GV and Mott et al! The Christmas wine pack is a definite hit here! No twisted arms 😉

HaPpY HoLiDaYs!

Another GREAT new addition to my family’s Christmas Eve tradition. We are still drinking and I will fill in the holes later for ya GV but Texas is doing fine tonight. Merry Christmas WLTV, Sasha, GV, Mott and all your families. Thank you for all the wonderful memories you all have given me and my peeps, Billr in Texas…..

Merry Christmas everyone!

QOTD: No one, really… Merry Christmas Gary!

Great episode Gary…..
QOTD – I am always telling people to watch…..an given no Xmas pack up here there was little opportunity but I will continue to spread the word!

QOTD: No arm-twisting required here. A cat in my lap and my husband on his computer multi-tasking.
A friend of ours got the 4-pack – we were at his house last night (and had the Sinister Hand – loved it.) He hasn’t indicated who will drink it with him.
Merry Christmas to you and your family and everyone at Wine Library.

I’m Wit Ya Gary!!!!!

QOTD: No arm twisting needed. The wife is upstairs, oblivious.

Merry Christmas.

That’s what it’s all about Gary-sharing the love. A great, energy filled show. I did not have to twist anyone’s arm to watch it. We have the Graves decanting and passed it around, and wow! what s sensation, what a great choice and what a bargain. Here in So.California it’s really warm still -almost 70 at 4 PM. We`are blessed with the weather and I hope the rest of the Vaniacs are not freezing. We plan to enjoy some wine and cheese, and best of all the 100 pt love of our family. Merry Christmas to everyone.

Gary,

the second wine today looks exactly likt the label of SO MANY other wines from bordeaux. why is that? chateau aney looks just like it and so do many others. can you shed some light on this?

Great fun. Wishing everyone the very best wines and no corked bottles.. Happy holidays!

I remember when Fruit Roll-ups jumped the shark. Sad indeed.

Merry Christmas Gary and everyone else!!!
