Is it me, or is it a little gross to drink out of the glass and then pour it back into the bottle for someone else to taste. Please remember what?s going on in the world today. (don’t drink out of someone else’s glass and wash your hands! Looking forward to the shows next week with some legends of the wine world.

QOTD: The last older vintage wine which was epic not just the wine but that I tasted with you. It was only a week ago on the Thundercruise, which was the 1996 Leoville Barton. The most recent besides that one was an 83 Margaux and for a 26 year old wine again the color was surprising extremely dark and just a complete appreciation for aging wine.

looks like you drank some serious vino at lunch. really cool. nice.
QOTD; 1962 Chateau Latour, the cedar, leather, and smoke aromatics were amazing. the dark fruits taste of the wine was unbelieveable. an absolute home run when i had this last year. still could last for another decade or two.

QOTD: I have never really had a epic wine. Still in the just getting into the game. This weekend is fulled with study from Law School Finals. Oh Boy. But its my last semester, so there is a silver lining. I’m telling you Hog Heaven is the best. Have Fun.

Yet another killer. You are the stuff-thanks again-also enjoyed your buzzzzz

you show no respect to the wine when you dump

damn GV … your camera work is improving …

Welcome to our Nashville and our Tennessee Titans….

Mostly a lurker, but love your shows and since your in town, had to wish you well during your stay….

QOTD – still working on the beginner wines and loving it….

That was a stellar show!! You were on fire. It’s awesome and educational to see such rare and interesting wines. I am so impressed with your commitment to the VaynerNation, while rubbing elbows with the big boys, you make time, and go far out of your way to provide us with the privilege of seeing this experience.

QOTd. The closest thing to epic wine, and I assume you mean older wine, would be this year drinking a 1990 Moulin Touchais which was the most balanced desert wine I ever tasted and thoroughly enjoyed. Part 2 – hanging out with family and seeing an old friend.

1993 Beringer Knights Vally. AMAZING- Cost me $18.00 drank like a $75.00 Bordeaux.

Another great episode. Love to hear your thoughts on the greats and older vintages.

Making Mint Juleps for tomorrow. Maker Mark? Knob Creek? Jim Beam?

Happy Birthday to your mom!

This was a great show. Unbelievably great wines, and you were relaxed and into what I think is your “real” self: a bono fide, surenuff, experienced wineguy who really loves the what great wine can do when you give it enough time! La Mission Haut Brion is my favorite wine (next to Haut Brion). I had the 1974 Mayacamus in a tasting of 20 of the top 1974 Cabernets from California some 12+ years ago in a tasting with the top collectors in the world, and it placed very high in the competition. I think the 1974 Heitz Martha’s Vineyard came in first….but there was little difference in overall quality.

My wife just called me to dinner, so I will have to continue this later.

Did you know breastfed babies have poop with no smell ? crazy the stuff you learn.

The episode I’ve been waiting for. The old wines I can’t afford. Very interesting episode, off the cuff, like many others recently but GOOD. Serious introspection, I trust your experience and appreciate your efforts.

Looks like you had a fun day today. Love the flipcam action.
Why not remove the power button while you tape so there’s no mishaps?

Thanks a lot for doing this episode. I really like seeing you taste wines like this that are not available to most of us.

The best older wine I’ve had was probably a 1990 Urziger Wurtzgarten Beerenauslese (sp?) from C. H. Berres. I don’t have much experience with older wines, though, and I’m not sure I would quite say it was “mindblowing”, although it was probably the best dessert wine I’ve ever had.

QOTD: I had a 1989 Luneau-Papin Muscadet L’D’Or. Even at 20 years, it was drinking amazingly young.

The best old wine I’ve had is probably a 1994 Arrowood Cab. I don’t know that I would call it epic, but it was pretty good and an interesting experience because I’ve never really had older wines. I don’t have the wallet for epic wines yet.

This weekend–>studying for my last law school final: Antitrust. It’s going to be rough.

QOTD: No epic wines, but this weekend is my last weekend in Nashville as I’m moving back to Montana on Monday. 9 best years of my life in music city!

Oh, and go ‘Dores!

I take that back…1997 Renwood Grandmere Zin. That might not count as “old” but it was really really good.

Happy B-Day Gary V’s mom!

Have fun in Nashville!

QOTD: a 2001 Château Laroque Grand Cru Classé.

The Mayacamas definitely excited me and made me feel better about cellaring a lot of Cali wines.

I’ve had 3 wines from 1978–the year I was married. A Lodi Zin which still had a lot of fruit left in it–had to strain the disintegrated cork from it though. Only paid $5 bones for it. A barbaresco–not that memorable and a Thomas Kruse Chard from Gilroy, CA—very dark and not much left to like about it.

The oldest wine that rocked my socks off was a ’94 Rubicon that I drank in ’04. The most recent older wine I had was a Kent Rasmussen ’99 Cab. Excellent. I paid $20 for it. It drank more like something in the $60. range.

I can not believe you just ran to the bathroom like a school getting her monthly friend for the first time- Who the F runs and spits a 1974-
