    Congrats on 3 years, very impressive. I’ve only been watching for around 4 months, but really liked the Champagne in the ice show. You’re a madman.

    So many memorable shows–the “Sir Gary” series was classic, “Training Your Palate,” and Jancis Robinson. Happy Third Anniversary.

    Congrats on the 3rd anniversary – Gary. Love the Montpezat for value. Leeuwin Art Series Cab is amongst my favorites and you are dead on with the ’04. The ’02 was also excellent. Margaret River in WA has a Bordeaux climate and somewhat similar soil and you can easily see why the Cab is so delicious. Try the Leeuwin Art Series Chardonnay and you will think you are on the Cote d’Or.

    Started watching over a year ago, with curiosity and a touch of skepticism, due to the outrageously imaginative descriptions and creative use of language that you communicate. I was quickly drawn in by your lovable character, and the inclusiveness of your message to all of the wine world, from professional to the newbie. Wine is good. Wine is fun. Love your family. Share wine with someone you love.

    this excerpt is from a few weeks ago, from the under commented upon Pennsylvania winery;

    ” a highpoint is Mr. Gary V.?s inclusion and exposure of the smallest little guy winery out there, and his ability to find, view, and express their positive attributes in simple, honest (imaginative!) terms and not appear condescending or patronizing, let alone embarrassing or humiliating. The bonding and fellowship he brings to wine novices is as powerful as it is important. At the same time, he lambasts those of the industry and world who exploit even their own consumer base with mediocrity and price gouging. I appreciate that.

    GV – continue to bring thunder, and tell us how you REALLY feel!”

    Maybe that’s my fondest moment, but I love it all!

    Keep up the great work!

    Most of the blind tasting episodes are really good, especially the more expensive wines since I can only afford a few of those, so your yehs and nays are very important. But the best one has got to be the one with Conan O’Brien because he was such a good sport.

    Happy 3rd Anniversary!

    You are to thank for my increasing wine knowledge and continued passion for the world of wine. Your dedication and commitment to us Vayniacs is out truly heart warming – take the recent video filmings in your hotel room.

    QOTD – Sooo many episodes….too many to name. Though I feel that the Jancis Robinsons guest appearance certainly confirmed our belief that you are a true original and a great ambassador for the wine word.

    Though for commedy value….it has to be the palate building ep.

    KEEP IT UP Gary and Mott!

    Hey Gary-Thanks for the time and effort that IS 3 years of WLTV! (you too Mr. Mott)!

    QOTD- for fun: the outside hurricane force wind ep (great hands!) and the ep where you spill/throw wine all over your shirt.(the OPPOSITE of great hands)!I laugh every time I hear you say; “Lizzie is going to kill me, this is brand new”! (the cork throwing compilation is LOL funny too! but is that an episode?!

    For all time greatest WLTV moment; NO QUESTION…when you shared the “big news”…Thanks for everything and all the best!

    If I had to buy a bottle of wine a few years ago, I wouldn’t even know where to begin. Today I am a selective buyer, and always look forward to trying something new. Although I wish I could appreciate all of the subtle nuances you describe, I now appreciate wine like piece of art. Your videos are a real treat and without them I’m sure I would have nowhere near the appreciation I do today. It would be impossible to pick my favorite video since most have been educational and all have been fun. The one that always comes to mind first is the one where you eat the foods that taste like wine. I think all of your videos are really innovative and most of all I like the way you keeping finding ways to mix it up. The only criticism I have is that sometimes I wish you would let your guests speak a little longer without interrupting. The wines I have learned I like the most are Bordeaux, Tannat, and Carmenere, and the least those the fruit bombs from California and Australia. I visited your store the first time a few weeks ago and was very impressed with the friendly and dedicated staff. Link it up Mott!

    Happy B-Day, WLTV!

    QOTD – My favorite episode is my very first one (#468) because it got me hooked on 2 different things: 1.) WLTV of course and 2.) Barbera wines. I was always a drinker of Cali wines until I saw this episode and now I have definitely expanded my palette. I absolutely love to explore Italian and now Spanish wines and probably wouldn’t if I hadn’t stumbled across WLTV on iTunes.
