GV – what you said at the end really summed things up – It should not take an epic ice storm or a holiday like Christmas, Hannakuh (sp?), or New Years to bring about good will toward one another. Talk the talk and walk the walk for 365 days per year (366 during Leap Years). We only have this one life – be good to one another!

QOTD – You can’t ship to MA, therefore I can’t share. However, I liked the choices from the various regions. I don’t know the producers, but I like the Ventoux, Fronsac (one of my first Bordeaux purchases was Canon-Fronsac), and Languedoc! Peace!

Doesn’t everybody get it? Gary won’t tape another show until we leave 600 comments! Blow it up!

Great episode as always, how about a few more beer episodes!

Keep bringing the THUNDER!

Keep up the great work G-man! Your a great source for inspiration =)

Congrats on 600 and congrats on the Today show. Meredith and Ann seemed impressed with you. and most of all, it looks like they had fun! and nice move bringing Mott on! I feel that he relates well with the newbies out there.

Congrats on making it to 600! Can we get to 1,000????????

Thanks for the B’day shout out. Unfortunately I was just a little under the weather Xmas day, but still managed to have a great time and put on a feast for the whole family.

I have been enjoying Languedoc wines so much that they rate a category in my wine inventory list. I have found numerous wines of this region to be delicious and most have a super QPR.

Happy Holidays all.

Here’s your comment Gary, you deserve it. Good to finally see Mott (that was the first time I saw him), and great that you’re laying out some ways to get people started on red wine.

Hey Gary, trying to get you to 600. Can’t find your appearence online, I was too much in a druken hang over to get up to see it, hopefully you’ll link it up later.
Wish I could have the secret pack, but I’m one of the many people who got the axe this month from my job. Maybe next year 🙂

Didn’t get the xmas-pack, but spent some good quality time at the in-laws. Relaxing by the tree. Watching “A Christmas Story” over and over and over again while playing around with the kids, enjoying a so-so Zin w/ cheese and other assorted snacks and generally having good, quality family time.

Other than that the prediction is… The Jets will beat the dirty fish on Sunday… but the Pats will also win beating out the Bills and taking the playoff spot. The Jets find a way to disappoint fans even with a 10 win season and let’s face it, as Jet fans we all would have jumped on a 10 win season at the start of the year and accepted it as a good thing.

So goes the life as a long-time suffering Jets fan.

even I don’t care about wines, I just watch you because of the energy you emit!

happy new year to all!

Gary, You did a fab time of explaining the varietals and educating the world about champagne on ‘The Today Show’ !!!!!!!!!!! 🙂

Great job on The Today Show. It was fun, funny, and educational.

Already left one, but just doing my part to get to 600. GV…thanks for telling it like it is.

Angie…great job on your blog post…I need to tell a some moms that I know about your site!!

Short of 600 posts, how many bottles of the Languedoc would I have to buy to get WLTV back on the air?

Wow. Brining the thunder down on Ice wine. Good work Gary. I have been drinking emulated ice wine for ages but have not yet stretched to some of the real jus. Bring on episode 600.

Gary,

On Xmas eve we had an Italian dinner that I paired with a several Italian wines including the Antoniolo Gattinara Osso San Grato 2003 that you featured a few months ago. This wine was dynamite. The whole family enjoyed it. We followed that up with a Ciacci Brunello that also rocked the house. A great start to the holiday festivities. It’s always fun to share such great wines with those who are close to you.

Congratulations on 600. Good balance, well structured, great length, solid mid-palate, and an excellent finish! (as always).

Happy Holidays! Give YOUR family a huge hug from all of us in MY family.

Great episode Gary! Congrats on the Today show appearance – it looked like you had a great time!

Been Watching the show for ages. Well done getting to 600 and such a great show.

Mele Kalikimaka from Maui! A warm, bright sunny Christmas day, yesterday, here in the islands. Gary where were your gloves for the Cham-pain episode? It hurt to watch. Today on the 26th it’s raining but warm. Good day for WLTV and #600. Congrats

Loved the show for a year or so. First time I’ve ever left a comment. Weird I know. Anyway I love it! keep it up, I think it’s amazing what you are doing for the wine world. BbbllWhammy!! Happy Holiday’s Y’all!

Had to come out from being a lurker to congratulate Gary on #600. I visited France this fall and loved my visit to the Languedoc. Toured Chateau des Hospitaliers and was very impressed. Solid wine producer in a solid wine region.

Hey Gary – thought this would be a good time to let you know that your work ethic is truly exemplary – most of these “Web celebs” can’t hold a candle to you. Great job on winelibrary.tv, WineLibrary, and all of your other side-projects (PleaseDressMe, Garyvaynerchuk.com videos, TV appearances). Congratulations on 6-0-0.

Just watched the Today Show segment on Viddler. Nice. For xmas eve we popped a Schramsberg – 2000 J. Schram Rose! Not a value play, but very delicious. Want to try their non-vintage “Mirabelle” rose, which was higher rated, and only $35!
