    Re: the decanter – the Wine Fall? Near instantaneous decanting?

    Re: 21st birthday wine – my Dad has an ’88 magnum of Napa Cabernet waiting for me in our “wine cellar” (basically a closet under our stairs filled with wine)… not sure about which winery it’s from, but I’m looking forward to it.

    How can a Vayniac give YOU a birthday shout-out, Gary??

    QOTD: In the spirit of John F. Kennedy, I shall not tell you what Wine Library TV can do for me, but ask what I can do for Wine Library TV. …So, what can I do, especially since I can’t buy wine yet? Maybe buy a book or two? What else?

    Alas, the only Fixin I had was oxidized.

    QOTD — I’m happy with it as is . . . well, when the show is running late or isn’t going to show, a notice would be nice

    QOTD: what can WLTV do for me, it can do more burgundy episodes with some good red burgs, that’s what it can do for me 🙂

  • I’m so jacked that you brought back the, “Oooh this.” Nice work. Also, the call out about Runts was hilarious.

    Although I haven’t had that particular one, I’ve had a couple wines from Jean Luc Colombo and have really enjoyed the barnyard (poop) aspect on the nose.

    QOTD: WLTV can make me the host of Beer Library TV.

    I’m definitely ordering a Cornas today without fail. Syrah and I get along very well.
    QOTD: In your spare time (yeah, I know, what’s that?) share some weird ass wine facts of the day. I’ll be happy to be your researcher on this.
    Great show today.

  • Roberto

    GONNNNNNNNAAAAAA miss the book signing by one day?!!! leaving NYC on the 13th, however will definitely join you at the Conan watching so we can finally meet!!

    Good show, I love Cornas, about time dude!!

    Any way to get a book signed before that? It’ll be tough to get you to sign one in Costa Rica

    Props about the Conan show! Wish I was in NY for the events. You should come out to Phoenix for a book signing before it becomes unbearably HOT.

    QOTD: I guess this is more of a Wine Library thing, but you could integrate it with the show… I’d like to see a http://mobile.winelibrary.com (http://m.winelibrary.com for short). It would be nice to have a handy reference–a primer, if you will–for the store rather than making lists by hand.

  • KVolk

    Never tried any of the wines you mentioned and no book signing I am afraid….keep bring the Thunder every day.

  • Daniel

    Gary great show! A big congrats on being on Conan again. I will defiantly will be watching!

    QOTD: I don’t think there is anything more you can do. Like the old saying “If it not broke don’t fix it”.
