You guys are way too natural in front of the camera. Was your mom doing a lot of home movies when you were kids or what??

QOTD: I’m an older brother, but hope that someday I’ll have a younger bro as cool as AJV

    I am blown away by how centered your whole family is. Here’s AJ who’s on his famous brother’s video blog and he’s confident enough in his own skin to hold his own. I know that you’re dying to be Michaelangelo on that blank canvas and give him all your knowledge and passion for wine like, RIGHT NOW! Maybe my favorite episode.Happy Birthday AJ!

    QOTD: I’m the mistreated 3rd child of six 🙂 Seriously, my older siblings (1 sister, 1 brother) showed me, by their example, how important learning and thinking are and, for that, I will always be in their debt. (Obviously, one thing they didn’t teach me was how to avoid run-on sentences) What the hell, I still love them.

    This was super fun for me because my little brother’s birthday is today too! 🙂 His name is Randy, and he was born in 1977 (so a decade older). I can’t get him to drink any wine with me, though.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AJ!!

    QOTD: No older siblings/cousins on either side of the family – consider me the experimental baby.

    Happy Birthday AJ!
    I’m in that same boat as you right now, turned 21 not too long ago, and I’m still struggling a bit in the wine world. I have definitely found a few I like, but these exact smells and tastes are still alluding me. Keep at it man! And when are we gonna see an ep with Sasha, AJ, and Gary in one? That would be badass!
    QOTD: I’m an only child 🙁

    Happy Birthday AJ! Great show, it was honestly touching to see how close you two are. Nice choice of wines too. I don’t think I have ever seen anyone try a wine from California older than 10 years. Very interesting. Good luck in everything AJ.

    QOTD: I have one older sister, but she is just over a year older than me. She is an awesome sister. She made me feel cool in school because her and her friends, who were two grades above me, would always say hi to me.
