    Nice project there Wayne. Some good wines, good people, for a great cause, you can’t ask for anything more than that.

    I hope you left Mrs. Gretsky a few Napa reds that are far superior to Opus One. There are lots out there that beat Opus large.

    Just a fun show, especially when Gretzky was just drinking away while Gary was setting up the sniffy-sniff.

    QOTD – Blue Jays too.

    Nice episode. Mr. Gretzky shows what a nice guy he is, and it sounds like he does the right thing by putting his name on quality product. Thanks for another great one.

    Fun show. I am not a big hockey fan, but I am a Wayne Gretzky fan. An amazing athlete and seems like a nice guy too. QOTD – I hope the Yankees do not win the World Series.

    Having Wayne Gretzky on the show gives the show an element that pushes it to a new level. I have been an Islander fan since their inception and watched Billy Smith play his whole career and can really appreciate Waynes view. No matter what team a person watches, they are still a Gretzky fan.

  • Charlie

    I’ve been trying Wayne’s wines for a while now, and I can’t tell you how happy I am they don’t suck – I was so worried it was just going to be a name-play, but nope, they’re good! Tried the cab a month or so ago, and I agree with Gary – it was quite good, I’m also very happy that it appears he has a stake in Willow Heights – an Ontario winery that, up until Wayne & Co. took it over, wasn’t making very good stuff – post Wayne, their reds became serious – their “Trissette” a bordeaux style blend just kills, which shocked the hell out of me – but then again, I’m a Cabernet Franc fan, so anything with that in it – done well – makes me happy.

    Congratulations Wayne for lending your name to quality Ontario wines! ( ok, ok, and California 😉
    Congratulations Gary, great to have you and Wayne together.

  • Ok now you’re officially a Triple-YYY-list celebrity; no Triple-ZZZ-list can have the Great One as a guest.

    Not to steal thunder but Igor Larinov (former NHL and beloved Red Wing aka “The Professor”) is also in the wine business and makes some serious wines; the hockey guys love grapes.

    No the Yanks will not win the world series, sorry. Wayne I’d love an autographed bottle, just got one signed by Ted Lindsay for the “great hockey player” wines someone put out there.

    It was AWESOME to see 2 guys at the TOP of their games talking about things they are so passionate about. I’m from the OKANAGAN, so I already know how GREAT CANADIAN WINES are… it was REALLY good to see how well Wayne’s Wine Collection did with Gary.

    Thanks again for a REALLY entertaining & enjoyable interview – YOU GUYS BOTH ROCK!! 😀

    QOTD: NO! TO pay big money for free agents, to pay $1.5 billion for a new stadium, to lose on opening day and then lose by 18 runs to Cleveland – PRICELESS!!!
    HeyTerroirist – All of the profits get donated to a great cause!!

    Hey Wayne, you should have brought your beautiful wife with you on the show!!

  • Gary literally goes One… on One… with the TRUE Great One…

    I am glad I watched this. If I had seen the Wayne Gretsky wine on the shelf, I would have probably thought, “Huh.” And then kept on shopping. But, it really sounds like I might have to give them a chance.

    QOTD – NO. Go Cardinals! Oh, and have I mentioned that in my closet hangs a Gretsky hockey jersey… from the all too brief time he played for My St. Louis Blues?!?
