line of the day – ‘Mott, your linking up and zooming in have been legendary’

Mott makes a rare appearance in front of the camera and although we love him, and we all do, he’s a bit of a distraction to me when tasting along with Gary. I just get the feeling that everything he says is what he thinks Gary wants to hear, and if Gary said a wine tasted of Baboon cr@P, he’d probably agree. Nice guy….but

    Two years ago someone brought a bottle of 2004 Chateau Puech Haut to a dinner party at my house; FABulous wine!

    I was so excited to see it reviewed here. I’m looking forward to finding another bottle or two.

    Congrats on 600. Glad to see 600 comments too!

    The Jet’s coach Eric Mangini was let go. Gary – you outraged, happy, sad? What wine goes best with a coach’s departure? You know, they say there are only two kinds of coaches in the NFL… those who have been fired and those who will be fired.

    I love your energy!!
    Keep producing!

    I don’t understand how the Patriots with their record did not get it.

    Out here in the Bay Area, we have some good mascot wine.
    Come by.

    Happy Holidays

    Hi Gary and Mott. I download WinelibraryTV from Miro so I don’t know if I get counted in your total downloads or not but just wanted to say I love the show and hope you’re not stopping at 600. I’m in Mississippi (home of Brett Farve and Manning clan!!)and sent wine from WineLibrary to a friend in VA this Christmas. Hope to buy from you again soon. Thanks for all the great exposure to different wines and your entertaining presentation. Keep it coming in 2009!

    Gary! Congrats on number 600. First time poster, long time watcher. With this episode, we just added three more citizens to the Vayner-Nation (brother, mom, and dad). It just keeps getting bigger. Keep up the great work and thanks for all the great picks!

    Happy Holidays Gary! Congrats on making 600 shows for our edification. I’ve only been a Vayniac for the past 100 or so, but like to think I’ve brought a couple of dozen of my friends into the fold too. I’m a little bummed that I missed the Today Show since I JUST saw the episode with the announcement…but I’m sure you and Mott will “link it up” in the near future. I wish you and yours much happiness and success in 2009!

    Bring the Motster on more. That is the first time I have seen him. Nothing what I thought he would look like. I thought he was about 25 years old.

    This is the second year in a row that I’ve done the ‘secret wine pack’ tastings with my wife, father-in-law, and mother-in-law over Christmas (which, in our family, last the entire week between xmas and New Years, and includes the birthday of my father-in-law (Poppa Jack, 12/29). You rock our world! This year’s pack was exceptional. We spread it out over 3 days and enjoyed each bottle as much as (if not more than) the last. Can’t wait until next year!!!

    So Mott, what did you think of that last wine? I love it when Mott joins in the tasting, even if it’s off camera. I’d like to see a link to the Today show under your national TV appearances.
