Highlight of the show is the $100 bet with Mott that the Oak Monster makes an appearance. Unsurprisingly Mott declines

    Loved it. I’m the wine snob. My brother works at a great pub. He brings home Bogle the night you air this.
    David Bruce makes some great pinots. Bogle makes the best QPR Petite Sirah. I do love Stags’ Leap but it is also 3x price.

    Yet another great show … keep up the good work Gary. I enjoy Petite Sirah (as well as Mencia from yesterday’s episode) so it was great to see shows on these wines. Good to hear on the Bogle, that can get a lot of people out there to try something different.

    I bought the Lolonis from you (just last week), hope it comes together as it ages.

    QTD – Definately Pittsburgh and I’m stuck on the NFC pick. I’ll have to go Eagles, they are on a roll. For whatever reason, Cardinals seem a bit inexperienced (even though they have Warner and James) in the big games. So it would not at all surprise me to see the Cardinals win but I’ll go with Eagles.

    Gary,

    You say “friend me up”, and I sent you a facebook friend request a couple months back, but you haven’t confirmed me…what gives? Anyways, been watching for awhile now, and I can’t wait to catch ya at the boston wine expo.

    QOTD: Pitt vs. Eagles, as much as I don’t like to say it.

    Wish you had more time on those national tv shows Gary, gotta get you out there more.
    I too have asked you to friend me up on facebook, and myspace… no response?
    Anyways great show, I actually am happily surprised about the bogle winning the round, I often suggest that this wine is a good play for people un-familiar with petite sirah. Glad I’m not the only one around that enjoys this wine.

  • Bogle is definitely a great value play. I drink it all the time. One of my favorites under $10. Especially when I’m playing cards. Agree that it’s no wimp, very bold. Glad to see you liked it.

    Steelers v Cards, with the iggles left at the altar again…

    I don’t mind seeing Warner do well, that guy works it like no other… stocking shelves, playing arena and Canadia… gotta give that man props.

    GV – Decent show. I like the Petite Sirahs that I have had. I am a bit surprised by the Bogle win. My wife and I had a 2003 Elyse Petite Sirah from Rutherford, CA. You should have an Elyse wine on your show at some point – good stuff.

    QOTD – I-76 Super Bowl – Eagles v Steelers.

  • QOTD: I have none, no idea who’s playing today, sorry football doesn’t do it for me.

    However, Petite Sirah I love! Really, my wife and I are both huge fans of almost everyone we’ve had, so to see you pan a couple is disappointing. However, I’ve had other Bogles and was unimpressed so we’ll try their PS now. Thanks.

  • QOTD: Um, go sports teams! Rah!

    I am so glad the Bogle was good, since I know I can find that wine around here. My DH was looking for a good wine to go with his steak at a restaurant the other night and I said, ooh, PS if you can find it…but of course, he couldn’t find one BTG, and that was on one of the best wine lists in town (http://www.znbar.com/wines.html). Bummer.

    Keep up the great work, and don’t lose the Vay-ner-CHUK; we love it!!

    QOTD: Cards vs Steelers
    Hahahahahahaha. It’s Monday so I don’t win anything for that “prediction”.

    I guess I have to try my first Bogle.

  • It’s always strange how when you really have a strong feeling that’s something’s going to be good it lets you down, isn’t it Gary.

    Is it because we build it up too much in our minds, so it can never deliver?

    Too late for QOTD but being an English lass have to say not too hot on my Superbowl. You need to go global with your sports predictions now you’re a ZZZZ list celebrity Mr Vaynerchuk

    Thanks for the great episode. Went out and bought a bottle of the Bogle, and it’s definitely delicious wine. Can’t wait for times to get a little lighter so i can join your wine of the month club.

  • Little Jonny

    Nice show today, GV. Time for a Czech or Hungarian wine episode! Maybe a non-california zinfandel show? Just some thoughts…

    QOTD: Well, I would have said Eagles-Steelers, but we all know I would have been wrong… Congrats to the Cards on making franchise history!

  • I knew it! I buy Bogle wines by the case. Petite Syrah is one of my favorites. This is great. For all the wine snobs that bash me for my 8.99 bottle of wine, I have a GV episode to shove in their face. Gary, at some point, we’ll need you to review the following just for sh*tz and giggles:

    Crane Lake Petite Syrah: $2.99 (that’s right)
    Loius Jadot: Beaujolais Villages, Red Burgundy table wine: $7.99

  • Couve

    Thanks for the Bogul tip.

    For cheap wines, I wish these big US wineries would just stick to mixing up something that tastes good. Instead, every sub-$10 cab tastes like a cheap imitation of a $20+ cab. I get this from cheap US/Aus wines, but not from places like France and Portugal. They should just keep it cheap and let the grapes do what they do best.

    Bogle was my ‘gateway’ bottle to Petite Sirah, got me hooked. Now I’m into the heavier stuff (Stag’s Leap, Earthquake) but for my money Bogle is hard to beat. For a few dollars more, I also like the Vinum Pets. I also enjoy most of the $9-$15 ‘field blends’ with Petite & Zin rounding out a bunch of other grapes.

  • I tried the Bogle this past weekend at a get together, I was pretty shocked at how much I liked it, and always judged it as a ‘grocery store’ wine. Shame on me, a tasty wine, at a great value. Great show Gary!

    QOTD: Unfair, I already know …

    Recently we did a side by side tasting of David Bruce Petite and Rosenblum ‘Heritage Clones’ Petite and the Rosenblum BURIED the David Bruce! Quite a surprise considering the David Bruce name. But like Gary said it was a little out of balance and not all there. I reccomend Rosenblum Petites to anyone, they are quite nice. And I love Bogle Petite for the money…

    i also predict the commercials will be more entertaining than the game
