    Awesome Gary! I have a wine meetup group, so I plan on putting the word out to them. I’ll see how many of my members want the book and then try to order them all at once. Then, I’ll have a meeting at my house devoted to sampling a few of the wines from your book!

    Congrats Gary. I’ve been watching your show since WAY back, but I’ve never left a comment. Wine Library TV and Diggnation were the first podcasts I ever watched, and they’ve been hugely inspirational for me as a content creator. I’ve saved every penny I’ve made over the last year to buy equipment to do my own audio and video podcasts, and one of them will be starting this week! You were a big part of that, and I just want to say thanks and that the new book, the success, the fans… you deserve it. Cheers

    Great show Gary!!! And really looking forward to the book (i know…never start a sentence with “and”, but it IS a special occasion). I will do my best to dole out some hype, re: the pending publication, amongst the local Spokane vinistas. Real difficult time deciding whether to come to the Portland or Seattle signing, maybe both? Am going to preorder a gross and spread them liberally to friends and family and perhaps the odd passerby. Keep doing that voodoo!

    Mazel Tov dude!

    does todays obvious sexual overtones: “who doesn’t like some nice nuts in their mouth”, “nice little package”, “get off” mean you will be on the actual cover scantily clad in an obviously gross effort to bolster sales?

    i want a signed copy.

    Congratulations Gary, and I will be buying the book. Also, maybe you have done a show on this topic in the past, but as summer is just around the corner perhaps you could spotlight a few South African semillons. Keep up the great work!
