Gary and Mott, thanks SO much for helping us and mostly me to learn so much these past few years! This was a great episode, as usual and I am so looking forward to WLTV in 2009. Hope you both have a great, safe new year!

Happy New Year Vaynernation!
Great show. I like the Thunder Show’s resolutions. It’s so thrilling to find an extreme value. I almost picked the the KJ GR Chard for sh1ts-&-giggles; glad I didn’t.

One chard i did enjoy, though a little one-dimensional, was the Vampire vineyards’ Chard. It won’t change your life, but I’d get it again.

G, Thanks for an awesome ’08. You certainly opened my eyes and palate to a ton of varietals that I probably never would have ventured into. I am greatly anticipating more of what you, WLTV, and WL bring for ’09 and beyond.

Scott,

Boo Hoo. Can’t seem to access your #602 episode. I keep getting “Replay”. Happy New Year 2009 and many thanks for all the education and entertainment.

Wow, 5 wines. I’m a bit curious about the Languedoc wine, I have to say, to me it was the most fun review of the lot.

Happy New Year Gary Vee, Mr.Mott and everyone at The Wine Library and the Vayniacs! Good vibes to you all.

Happy New Year!

G-Man, Your show Rocks!
I’ve been watching it for a couple years now and love it.
Your show has spurned my wife and I on to start going to wine festivals all over the place. We are having a blast.

Her Christmas present to me this year was to put me in a “wine club.”

Dude, what else can we do to motivate our babes?

Hey, you Rock, too!

Sorry, can’t view the video. Will try again later. Happy New Year everyone!

It’s New Years Day, i’m pretty tired and for once not really in the “wine mood”…but I watched the show and LOVED IT as usual! You rock Gary and i’m looking forward to Wine Libary ’09!

Can’t get video to run, either. will try later. Z

Gary,

I look forward to each episode, but I could not view this one, even in Quicktime. Thanks for all the great info about wines over the years. Happy New Year!

Mike

Got it to run! Awesome show, G-man. I am new to the show, but this is just what I am lookin’ for to learn more about the “grapes”. Thanks and happy new year!

Haven’t been able to view the last 2 videos…..:((

Happy New Years everyone! Thanks to everyone at the Wine Lib! It’s been a great year!

And the California Raisins were a great touch…

Thanks for a great year, GV!

Finally was able to view the video, didn’t really miss too much. Happy new year everyone, can’t wait for the blinds this year.

Happy New Year everyone! Thank you for another great show – I’m looking forward to many more good times with ya’ll in 2009

Worthy goal: value wines. Only the term “value” still sends a chill up my spine. zI’m working on a new phrase for good low-priced wines. I’m too tired to think right now though. Later.

QOTD: Riptide

Happy New Year!

Make Mott shave if the Giants lose.

Please?

Happy New Year!

One of my New Year’s Resolutions to stop lurking and start posting on Wine Library! Love the show Gary, and have been watching ever since you have been on iTunes.

Keep up the good work, and looking forward to grabbing the next Secret Pack!

Happy New Year Gary!

Thanks for all your hard work and dedication pumping out all these quality shows. I’ve learned a lot from you this year. Definitely looking forward to 2009! Cheers and have a great weekend!

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW!!!!! DA THUNDER SHOW
IS WORKIN’ AGAIN!!!!!!! MOOOOOOOOOCHOOOOOOOO THANX GGGGGGGGGGG!!!! 🙂
WILL WATCH ‘ER TOMORROW!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! 🙂

I’m ambivalent about the whole thing.

I think the problem with this value wine episode is that there weren’t more wines from Europe, southern rhone, bordeaux, and spain are where it’s at, kj?, cantena?, cali is blowing it in the value category. here’s to more southern rhone wine in 2009, kermit lynch that shit. happy new year, keep it up man, the under $20 connoisseurs are changing the wine world.

Happy 2009 Gary & Chris, thanks for all the shows and looking forward to more in the new year.
