    Most peeps think Pats/Gmen would be the ideal Superbowl matchup – you know, “old world” Titan vs “new world” Adonis QB – I think the ratings for whomever is carrying the show this year would be through the roof. Was rooting for Giants yesterday (rare for me to root for NY team).

    QOTD: Wine vacation? Hmmm, well Tuscany would be nice (just dreaming), or the Languedoc in France would be acceptable :-). Well, I will visit WL at some point, goes without saying (need to save up some serious greenbacks for that as I will undoubtedly go nuts).

    Welcome Back! Go LPSkeleton!!!
    QOTD; My wine trip will be to the dirty Jerz to see you!

    QOTD: Funny you should ask that. I have decided that I don’t want to go to work on my Birthday, so I will be making my first pilgramage from Mahwah, NJ down to WINELIBRARY tomorrow (1/15). I have cleared out a spot in my trunk for the box(es) of wine that I know will be returning with me.

    WOOO HOOOO!!!

  • cgatesman

    Don’t you dare retire the “Sniffy Sniff!”

    QOTD: Planning on visiting relatives in Fallbrook, CA, so we’ll definitely be hitting up Temecula. Also, I’m sure I’ll be doing some business trips out to our office in Roseville, CA–Napa here we come (just haven’t decided on vineyards)! Might check out Castello di Amorosa.

  • Chocolate covered cherries sounds great, I’m going to get me one of those Morgante Neros! Keep ’em coming, Gary.

    QOTD: My wine vacation for this year isn’t set yet but it will involve watching the Jets play the Raiders in Oakland. When the date is announced, I’ll make arrangements with Gary to come to California. We’ll visit Napa or Sonoma or, better yet, the El Dororado hills on Saturday. On Sunday, we’ll have a blast as our teams duke it out!

  • Christopher J

    Gary, you should raise a ‘sniffy-sniff’ banner in the rafters when you retire it.

    Seriously, it is great to have you back Gary!

    QOTD: Since we are going to Disney World this year, I am really going to try to go during the Food and Wine Festival. I heard it was supposed to be pretty good.

  • organicguy

    Welcome back—needed a fix–thanx—no planned wine vacation but am seriously considering a day trip to WL.

  • Caren

    QOTD: San Fran, NAPA vicinity for late March early April. Would love to coordinate with some Vayniac Cab activity. Gary, what’s the VayCab Crushpad schedule for ’08 ?

    Hey Gary

    Glad to see that you’re back. This is basically my first post, so I’ve got to say that I’m hooked on your show and was running out of old episodes to watch while you were away.

    No place to go for a wine vacation this year, but was in Beaune last June. Though, I was really sick, so the experience wasn’t what I had hoped.

    I’ll try to get up to the Wine Library to see you sometime. I’m only a few hours away.

    Cheers from Philly,
    Josh

    Glad your back………

    QOTD: The Wify Wife and I are planning a trip from Texas to Key West in our hybrid and back in June. We plan on visiting all the wineries in Florida. We did this a few years back and it was so great that we want to do it again.

  • GrapeStuff

    QOTD- My wife and I leave Thursday for Sonoma. We’ll probably plan a couple weekends in the Leelanau / Traverse City MI area like we do every year.

    I was thinking Mott was going to gloat………..

    QOTD: My wife and I are going to Napa on President’s Day weekend. We were in Sonoma last summer and like to alternate between the two – good food, good wine and some time away from the every day routine.

    Welcome back.

  • Great to see you back Gary; I hope you enjoyed your holiday and had a lovely break with your family.

    QOTD: Just had one – a week in Tuscany, but will definately swing past a few vineyards when I’m back in Australia and may even try to make it to one in Japan.
