watching for a second time. saw it live. great show

so does the girl in Switzerland need to fly to new york to get her free trip to France? France itself is much closer to Switzerland than new york.

I have never had a $100 bottle of wine, and can’t think of one that I want to try. Really, I would love to try ANY $100 dollar bottle of wine. I have found a new mission :-).

NO ONE TOLD ME THERE WAS A ZUNE!!!!!!

Watch out, that ustream is habit forming.

Q: ’73 Lopez de Heredia, whenever I get around to picking one up.

Great episode!!!! I bought some ’05 Sassacia and was curious how it was… didn’t want to open one of mine so early in life!

QOTD: If you are talking about Over 100… ’01 HSS was pretty darn good. Also had the ’05 La Tache recently (slightly over 100) and MAN was it good!

QOTD: The one I am most looking forward to try is my 2005 Janasse Vieilles Vignes.

Congrats to the winners

Top 20!

’94 ’97 an ’01 Stags Leap Wine Cellars Cask 23 all rocked!

Darn! I totally thought I was going to win the trip to France! Not because my answer was good (it honestly sucked; I was in a rush and wanted to enter before I was away for a week), but just because I was feeling lucky and thought my name would be picked! I guess this is like how I think I’m going to win the lottery every time I buy a ticket, huh? I’m so irrational sometimes…

QOTD: Probably the 2000 Tommaso Bussola Amarone Vigneto Alto TB. And the most anticipated $100 bottle currently is the 2004 Conterno Fantino Barolo Sorì Ginestra, but that’s probably because I just bought them. The anticipation will have to hold for at least 6 years though, since it’ll be at least that long before I even try one. Doh! Though, I’m even anticipating the day the magnums arrive so I can just stare at them in the cellar…

GV is awesome!!!!!!! I have learned so much watching you…don’t always agree, but I learn.

No longer just a lurker!

QOTD: I’m looking forward to a 1977 Dow that I picked up 5 years ago for 55 bones! Maybe I’ll hold it and drink it when the QOTD is about a $200 bottle.

hmmmm…i’m guessing if jay miller reviewed the Grange he’d give it 96+….

Long time lurker, first time responder.
Great Show!!!…Instant classic.

QOTD: Unfortunately today’s show is probably why 95% of us have never had a $100.00 bottle of wine. You have to be rolling so big to take a chance on plain unsuccessful wine (Penfold’s Grange & many others) or a flawed bottle like my 1989 Lynch Bages. That’s a helluva crapshoot for the non super wealthy.

Best for around a $100? 2002 Silver Oak, which was very very good, but not great

QOTD:Drank a 1991 Robert Mondovi cab at Christmas, first time I could taste faded violets

Great show Gary!

Seen a few bad reviews of the Grange over here in the UK recently. Most saying it’s good wine, but just not worth the money. Penfold’s do a couple of other wines for about a third of the price (RWT Shiraz) which might be worth checking out.

QOTD: Best $100 (£50) Wine, Roberto Voerzio Barolo 2003. Stunning. It was about £100 and I wasn’t buying!
