    QOTD: No idea. I don’t normally plan my wine choices in advance. It’s more of a spur of the moment decision.

    I guess I have to second CrazyManAndy and say episode 255. I know I’m not the first (and we might not be right), but I’ve been watching the show for quite a while and I don’t have any of the wristbands. I REALLY want them. I didn’t leave comments for many of the episodes I watched, hence the moniker. I’ll probably bring a Roger Goulart (sp?) Reserva Cava to a party on Monday. I don’t know what I’ll open between now and then. Sorry for the pleading. Thanks for the show.

    Fun show guys!

    QOTD: Tonight I’m going to try a 2006 Riefle Riesling Classique Bonheur Convivia. Maybe have an Ercavio Roble when the heat wave here in the Bay Area subsides tomorrow or Sunday.

    No joke..this is probably my favorite show that WLTV has produced. The wine, the friends, the memories….simply put: Classic. I love these moments.

    Shifrin – My folks live ON Lake Norman and if I can say one thing: PARTY!!! Oh, and NASCAR. If you like NASCAR, you have died and gone to Heaven. Pull up a boat, enjoy the party, the girls, and the food.

    Seriously G, I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this show. It really brought me back. Thanks for that.

    Also, the wines showed great. I only wish I could get a hold of some (IL).

    Have a great weekend and GO CUBBIES!!!!!

    Awesome show guys. Those stories you guys were telling reminded me of all the things my friends and I have gone through.

    Hey Gary, you should bring in more people who work at Wine Library so we can get to know more people who make this show happen.

  • One of the best eps ever! Just what I was looking for coming home late on a Friday night. You are so lucky to hang out and work with some of your closest and oldest friends – a rare thing in today’s world.
    Note: There seemed to be a decided lack of females in your guys’s coming-of-age stories. It was all like baseball cards, video games, D&D, hide-and-go-seek tag with the lights out…

    I think I am too late. I just got home from my nephew’s high school football game and watched the episode. I just searched the archives and it is episode 255. I hope it is not a trick question because I am sure they have been a part of WLTV since episode #1. The only wristband I am missing is the original. So, I guess I will keep trying.
