QOTD….The Beatles cheap Mexican weed weekends in Santa Cruz CA.
Sorry wish I could be there

Damn the thunder is everywhere. Big thanks to the guy who sent the wine in!

QOTD- thats easy, the music!

Hi Gary,

I’m Kent Wah-nuh-may-ker. I’ve been a lurker, now I’m exposing myself! I really appreciate what you’re doing here. De-mystifying wine is so critical to expanding the numbers of folks who venture in. Back in the 80’s I worked in the grape-growing business in California – our grower association did a promotion based on the theme; “The best kind of wine is the kind you like”. That seems to mesh with your mantra “Trust your palate”. The most fun aspect of wine for me is when I travel, I love to get into the countryside and sample the local wines that are made solely for local consumption. Some amazing stuff.

I really enjoyed your show featuring the wines from the 60’s. I’ve got a few bottles from the 60’s in my cellar and pull one out from time to time to drink with friends. Like your experience today, I’m surprised how few clunkers I come across compared to the number that are still holding up, like the little ladies in their hats who cruise the shops and try to appear stylish.

Nice Show Gary… Very Interesting to see how the older wines aged in consecutive years.

QOTD#1 – My Parents met in the Sixties, so I’m a pretty big fan of that. Plus one of the greatest bands of all time formed and released their first album…LED ZEPPELIN. Simply Magic on both accounts.

QOTD#2 – Alas, as a VAYNAIC from the Left Coast and the GREAT WHITE NORTH to boot… I will not be in person at the Mothership tomorrow in the Dirty JERSEY. But I promise to live vicariously through all those in attendance and wish everyone in the Nation, the VAYNERNATION the most wonderful of weekends.

QOTD: I have no idea, i was born in 86, i feel so young after this episode….

No 1966? I feel slighted. That’s when I was born. Must’ve been a bad year!

QOTD: The opening of Dodger Stadium in 1962

Nice to see some old wines like those. Too bad I can drink some like that my self.

QOTD: Can’t really think of anything from the 60’s that I like. I’m sure there must be something but I wasn’t born till 80. If I could try that wine that would be something.

QOTD: My favorite thing about the 60’s is that I was not born in them.

My least favorite thing is that the Jets won the super bowl.. haha

Will not be there. Construction on my bathroom begins tomorrow.

Great show! Older wines. The person that gave you those for us to watch you review is a STUD!!! Thanks!!!!

QOTD #1…uh no idea, I was born in 1977 and nothing jumps out from the 60’s.
QOTD #2…no I’m not going to be there!! Thanks for bringing it up and rubbing it in GV!!!

QOTD: My favorite thing about the 60’s was the revolutionary ideas and political changes. We need some of that spirit today.

QOTD2: Can’t wait!

Hippys.

QOTD1: ’60s cars. Although the ’70s crushed it, ’60s music was good. (Check out the “Nuggets” box set.)

QOTD2: Can’t make it tomorrow. Have fun!

Interesting show GV.

Ah, 60’s, favorites:
1) Moon landing…I’ll never forget it.
2) Time Tunnel
3) Wild, Wild, West

Agree with Neil, Caleb, PJB, RRay and others… music! flowers and freaks. The SF sound, Jimi, Winterland, Fillmore, Avalon… that same wine, (maybe?) with bread and cheese on Mt Tam. Oh yeah, and the Grateful Dead on the back of a truck!

Thanks to that cool cat who “brung the wine” Love the show as always.

Ahhh man,I wish I was there with you trying wines as old as me.Very
cool!!!! 1964 was a great year, I otta know because that was the year I was
born-Awsome show Gary-Peace-Christian………..

QOTD: I remember watching “Fist Full Of Dollars” with Clint Eastwood-
my childhood hero, he’s awsome…

Great episode. I wasn’t born until 76 but one of my favorite bands started in the 60’s. Pink Floyd.

QTD1: Favorite thing about the 60’s…the Apollo 11 moon-landing in ’69 (the year I was born, to boot!).

QTD2: unfortunately, I cannot attend tomorrow. However, I’m really looking forward to the April 1 Secret-pack tasting!

Great show! Throws me back to the days when I began discovering that maybe Mateus wasn’t the pinnacle of great wine. I remember Martini as one of what we called then, “The Big 5.” It included Mondavi, Charles Krug, Beringer and BV. The ’68 BV Reserve Cabernet was the one that did it for me.

QOTD: Having been born in ’55, the 60’s represent my childhood. I love all the memories.

QOTD: My favorite thing from the 60’s is the television; specifically “I Dream of Jeannie”, “Bewitched” and “The Addams Family”

subQ: No…… 🙁 I wish.

GV, Great show. Love the older wines angle. I had every intention of going to the party tomorrow but have been fighting a serious case of the flu all week. In no shape for the 3 hour drive. Really bummed out here. Hopefully, I can make it down this spring. Some time in May. Joel M

D’oh! I meant Heitz, not Beringer.

Wmole, You forgot Quicksilver MS!
