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…

Great Show!!!

Its been a while since I last them on the show.

QOTD: I’m actually gonna pop the Alpha Omega Sauvignon Blanc I picked up when I visited the Wine Library last week.

EPIC ONE Gary! Loved it! Thanks! 🙂

yes, 1st cousin once removed. If GV has a child, that child would be a second cousin

I am inviting some friends to a Pinotage tasting. This is varietal that I have drunk often at an African restaurant run by friends of mine, but some reason have never rated any. So this weekend it’s time to change that situation. We’ll be tasting
2006 Nederburg Pinotage (Western Cape)
2005 Bellingham “Our Founders” Pinotage (Coastal Region)
2004 Scali Pinotage (Voor Paardeberg)

I’m looking forward to them.

QOTD: Get this I’m planning on NOT drinking wine this weekend. I KNOW! But I’m doing a little health building detoxing before going to NYC on Wed and havin a time my best friends. We’ll see if this lasts,

QOTD: Friday, the 2004 Bodegas y Viñedos de Murcia Jumilla Pico Madama (gazzar.ch has it for under $18/btl! rp 93+pts), Saturday a Crozes-Hermitage…still considering my options for Sunday’s dinner…

This Episode was great guys, I like these kind of episodes its a nice little change up. Really loved the stories…would love to hang out with you guys!!

Hope everyone has a great long weekend!!

You are second cousins, and Gary is a cousin once removed to Bobby’s dad. Cousins, second cousins, third cousins, and so forth are from the same generation, and the “once removed” label occurs when you are talking about different generations.

GIVE ME WRISTBANDS…please…Episode 255 (AJV did a great intro) was the first time they graced the silver screen of WLTV. I remember seeing the episode in the archives and before watching, thinking, what’s up with Gray’s hair???

QOTD: Hopefully stopping by Town Wine & Spirits (Riverside, RI) later today for something unique and FUN! The family will be all together (down from Lowell, MA) so it should be fun.

Fantasy draft is tonight as well so combined with some good wines, it should be a good night!

Very good EP- thanks Gary. This is a prime opportunity to express huge thanks to Warnke and Shifrin for all they do to make WLTV happen. You are blessed Gary to have your closest peeps around you doing the job you love! Very best to you and all who you consider your family this holiday weekend. If you’re around perhaps I’ll see you in the store today. -CK

Interesting episode. The price point for the Zindfandel even a Howell Mountain is a bit high to me. We will have a Champagne tasting Sunday night with American tapas. Don’t know what that entails but we shall see.

Gary you should be on a taller chair than your guests, cause your the king. Definitely a classic episode.

QOTD: I probably won’t be drinking wine this labor day. Perhaps I will have a beer.

QOTD: I have no clue!

Great show, gary!

Just a great show Gary, The friendship and love you show each other is wonderful to watch. Congrats on sticking together and enjoy your success. It’s all about family and you are fortunate to have a great one. Many thanks, waynestreet

QOTD: Started with Virgin Bloody Marys which will eventually contain some Chopin Vodka. Some Rose–“Sofia” and looking to have a little Moscato d’ Asti taste-off or a Prosecco taste-off with dessert tomorrow. The Braida vs. Two Hands Brilliant Disguise or Rao’s Prosecco vs. Oriel Prosecco.

Like everyone has said, very cool episode! It is heartwarming to watch you reminiscing about fun times with friends. We ALL should make it a point to do that sometimes….”Remember the time….?” I love all my friends and love all of my adventures with them….including driving 4 hours to meet you!

QOTD: Last night was a Loire tasting with some friends…very interesting. Tonight I’m hosting a northwest wines tasting that we’ll pair up with gourmet pizzas. Tomorrow, some friends are coming over for sweet corn/white truffle risotto….don’t know what we’re pairing with that yet! So, yes, lots of the vino has been/will be flowing this weekend! Hope you are doing the same!

Tonight a 1999 La Chapple and a maple zin from Armita plus Rose Nicholas Fuellette. all great wine for a party tonight thank for the show

This weekend I am drinking the Bogle Vineyards 2006 Petite Sirah. Excelent episode, and have a great weekend Gary.

QOTD: I will be slingin’ “Black Velvet” cocktails. Just mix equal parts Guinness (EXTRA stout, not the goofy widget can w/ the Americanized recipe inside) with bubbly. Grilling some pizzas and having pals over to enjoy time off with. I’m sure other wines/beers will be consumed as well…..

So this is what the guys do in Jersey.

QOTD- A little of this………..and a little of that.

some pinot from Dundee wine country….

Nice show.

QOTD: Michael david petite petite, and a couple of cab for a cookout, plus lots of beer. I love the three day weekends.

QOTD: Probably some whites… Moscato D’ Asti, Chards, and some Riesling if I have anything to say about it…
