I was captivated! I can’t wait for part 2. Great episode, GV!

…..Say What??….

Well done Gary. Great footage of Danny Schuster firing on all cylinders. One of the NZ pioneering legends. Best you head on down here for PinotNoir 2010 and check out whats happening. http://www.pinotnoir2010.co.nz

no on the bromance

plz

i will destroy you

tnx

Something will follow this “value” wine economy. I truly believe people like Daniel Schuster show, why starting to learn and know who grew the grapes, who made the wine and where the wine was made will become a factor in choosing wine.

As Daniel pointed you have to “enjoy the last glass as much as the first”

Does anyone know of a wine critics who tastes thru the whole bottle? How many get fooled by the initial 10 seconds?

For those who want to read more, Danny co authored a book too. “Canterbury Grapes and Wine 1840 – 2002”

This is a classic example of why memorable moments in wine are really a never ending treasure hunt. Enjoy them when they happen!!

Good job to both of you. — Thanks.

Very entertaining and engaging guest on the #1 Wine Show comin’ at ya’ from the Dirty Jerz.

Yes, Chicago is more corrupt than the entire country of France.

Breakfast it is.

He is awesome – such a great storyteller.

This is awesome, I was blown away by his Pinot Noir which I had for the first on the THUNDERCRUISE. For those of you that did not make it, Schusters wines were poured at the grand tasting. I can’t wait for part 2!

Just went a NZ wine tasting here in Vancouver lots of Sauv Blanc and Pinot Noir, tho I think my favourite was Elephant Hill Syrah 2008 (there 2007 reserve was really good too)

Amazing, amazing episode…. probably could have done an intro and then left the camera on until it ran out of tape/memory!

This episode reminds me why I visit tasting rooms as it allows me to hear great storytelling about the winemaking process. This episode is right up there with episode #43 with Santiago that I still keep returning to regularly as it turned m e on to his wines. I just got into a conversation with a Argentinian Phd student from Stanford about Santiago’s discovery of the art of winemaking during visits to Napa while also a student at Stanford.

Bring Santiago back as I remember that was a rare no spit episode and a classic.

I love that you said “wackadoo” 🙂

I love Daniel Schuster!!!! Great guest, I was sad when the episode ended. I can definately see why he’s a ladies man, very charming indeed. Oh and I know about South African women, I’m engaged to a Peruvian one!

Daniel is one profound dude. I also love the fact that he adores Bob Dylan.

As soon as I got comfortable with his accent (only took about one minute) I couldn’t stop listening- what a great character & great knowledge! Can’t wait for part 2!

(PS, Gary- your interviewing has gotten much better!)

That was probably the fastest half hour I’ve ever spent. The wonderful stories were enthralling. I do quite enjoy a good bit of history.

That is one cool dude!
If I have time I will watch this again and count how often he said “either way”. 🙂

Amazing guy! And what an experience!!! I sooo much agree with his philosophy of wine, as he said – you’ve got to love the last glass of the bottle as the first one! The wine has to be ‘true’ and has to make you feel like more!
Waiting for part II.

Cheers from Barcelona,

What a character, a really funny guy, looking forward to Part 2. Daniel should do his own wine show if he doesn’t already 🙂

I just finish watching one of the greatest episodes ever!!
This guy is PHENOMENAL!! Definitely CRUSH IT!!

I sipped the show with pleasure like a great Amarone; this guy is a philosopher on wine and life! Sounds and looks like a prophet! I agreed 100%.

Thank you Gary, for giving us the opportunity to know such tremendous human beings!

Baby countdown: 3 days!! God Bless you, the baby and Lizzie.

Neat character – cool accent with the New Zealand / German combo. Nice show.

Best quote: “Bromances are nice”. LMAO!

Excellent guest and a great show so far!

oh yeah
a Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan, Hendrix, and Stones reference.
Love it
