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??

    Sadly in my heathen ways I think I stepped back from hard drinking at age 21. After watching this epi I long for the days of an unjaded palate. Cheers and Happy birthday to AJ.

    QOTD: She tries. Biggups to Lisa Hope!!

    Happy B-day AJ! QOD – I have a few younger brothers but only one who’s into wine like me. When we get together, he brings the Barolo and I bring the Bordeaux. What can I say other than it’s all good;-) It’s a tough job, Gary, but it’s up to us elders to train the youngsters! I consider it an honor and a responsibility:-)

    QOTD: Like AJ, I too have a bro who’s older than me by 11 years. He’s been a fantastic brother who’s always guided and looked out for me. Unfortunately he doesn’t share my same passion of wine, however, we’ve spent many conversations over a nice cigar. I have to give him a shout out because he’s in Afghanistan right now kickin some arse. Also a shout out to my sis who’s 8 years my elder…she’s completely awesome.

    That show was FANTASTIC!!! There’s nothing quite like a little bro to bring out the best in all of us. I rreally liked the wine choices, I’ve brought my older brother (26 YO) on to the wine scene a bit, and it’s always very intersting to if his tastes develop the same way mine did when I started out. I think AJ should come back on the show every month so we can watch his palate develop 🙂

    QOTD: My older bro is almost as cool as GV (only b/c I’m not 100% sure that’s even possible). He was and is an inspiration for me… and my best friend.

    Happy Birthday, AJ.

    But I, for one, being the father of four girls, do not believe for one minute that you are having your first drink at age 21. You may have Mom, Dad, Grandma and even GV fooled, but not me.

    Big that was so cool to do the THUNDER SHOW with AJ. It was great to get his prospective of you and wine. I really enjoy it. My boy is 17 and have a Mayacamas cab ( his birth vintage) just waiting for his day. Ps.

    Happy Birthday AJ!

    Wow, this brought back memories of when I first tasted wine. That was such a great idea with the Opus and buying it the year he was born.

    Great show Gary,
    Thanks (as always) for sharing your life and wine with us.

    Joe
