93/100

line of the day – ‘Big blackberry flavours exploding on my nose like a grenade’

Barnstorming episode featuring GV at his best. When he goes on about the nuances of different vintages his knowldege is scary. The visible wince when trying the last wine is classic Gary, and sticking the wooden box on his chair as an Oak Monster substitute made me laugh. A classic.

    Thanks, Gary for yet another great episode, and more importantly, congratulations on # 700. Lets hope there are many, many more to come!

    QOTD: I really enjoyed episode # 635, where the “butter bandit” made an appearance courtesy of the Rombauer Chardonnay. Otherwise, any episode with Sasha is an instant classic … keep him involved from time-to-time. I love the fact that he actually drinks the wines instead of spitting… that coupled with the priceless expression on his face when you offer the spit bucket to him is truly entertaining.

  • Thanks for 700 episodes! I know that it is a lot of work. You have been doing a great job keeping the Thunder going!

    Well done, great work!
    QOTD: secret is dolcetto episode. I show it to (uninitiated) friends regularly, not least for the Vinny Testaverde rant. I’ve had hours of Italian wine drinking pleasure as a result
