OMG! Just had the 04 Delas Herimtage Bessard last night, I have to say that it’s the most balanced and well made wine I’ve ever tasted. The balance is crazy and combined with a ton of subtle lovely nuances it makes it almost worth the price tag ($110 is still quite above my normal range).

    I am a self confessed lurker but have decided to finally post so I don’t feel Gary is yelling at me. I’ve been watching for about a month and have powered through 150+ past episodes.
    Keep rock the wines!

    Have you done a show on Ribera del Duero, made old-school style and not too $?

    QOTD- Darth Serious unleashes his power and the Sith will rule the field…

    V, you say you may be leaning now a bit more towards new world. I’ve been thinking that about you for some time. When you say “good color”, it’s always ‘more good’ when it’s darker. You like “good body”………well that is more akin to new world. I think you’re a closet “NewWorlder”. Common G, get out of the closet, realize your sexuality (OK, just kidding) and let people know your preferences. However, I must admit, I have changed styles from more new world veering towards old world, but I have to say “I swing both ways”, and “I feel happiest riding the fence”.

    QOD-not only will I be routing for the Giants in Seattle, I really think they will win. Yea, yea, the underdog thing. I’m always for a good underdog, but I really think the Giants will win. Look at who they have stymied to get here.

    Gary I hope you keep on going strong. Great show like always.

    Much to my dislike the Pats are going to win, but I am hoping New York makes it interesting.

  • Gary is finally loving the fruit bomb! Go big or go home. As Ravenswood says “NO WIMPY WINES.” I think the show has hit a turning point. The wine with a hint of sweaty gym socks and pine sol with a touch of bell pepper is history! Onward and upward Gary!

    Some fantastic wines being sampled today!

    I expect the Patriots to win, though I also believe they’ll allow some scoring. My guess is Patriots 27 and Giants 23; hopefully it’ll be close and exciting whatever the score!

    I can’t even legally drink wine, but yet i still watch your show for whatever reason. To be honest, its not even about the wine, its about you (gary). I look at you, a young very successful guy and gives me something to strive for. Keep it up, you’ve got another fan.

    GV nice show today brother … I learn something new every episode. Now that i know that Hermitage is Syrah based I’ll definitely have to seek some of these wines out, also the red grape / white grape pairing is definitely intriguing.

    Speaking of which, can i borrow 110 bones? I’ll pay you back when I hit the lotto jackpot. Man! Talk about some serious wine.

    QOTD: Giants 35 Pats 1 … yeah it’s not technically possible but … we’ll see.

    I would love to have the money to try the Hermitage. As to the question of the day, I am a Jets fan, but rooting for the Giants to win. However, I think that the Patriots will likely beat the Giants in the Superbowl.

    Awesome episode GV! Nice to see you having some well-deserved fun with more expensive wines.

    On a side note: the hammer and sickle people got rid of the Tsars. And a couple other millions. 🙁
