Just when I think it can’t get any better, here you go. Nice, nice show.

btw: your interviewing style is engaging not interuptive. I just thought all of your professional critics would like to know that 🙂

Funny guest, very jovial. Really enjoyed the banter and Gary’s crazy vintage memory. 🙂

Oh my Lord above, this was GREAT, I do not mean really really good, I mean GREAT.

To listen and watch someone that is as vibrant and knowledgeable as Mr. Goldschmidt is a joy and honor. Thank you Gary for this wonderful guest.

Interesting guest – the banter was entertaining – glad the two of you could “dumb it down” enough for us lower class folk.

Nice pace, G. Looking forward to part II. Thanks.

One of my favorite episodes with a guest. Nick’s personality is very similar to mine. Love the joking, kick back attitude he puts off. So far I am pretty entertained.

Gary, always love your show, been watching for years, but this guest made me uncomfortable. He started pretty much obnoxious. Only mellowed a bit when you threatened not to order so much wine from him. BYW..you switched glasses with him after the first wine…….ew!!

GV – Congrats on the New York Time article today!!!! Well deserved. When I was half awake on the train this morning opening the paper I didn’t expect to see that. Might need to link that up!

I am looking forward to Part 2. When is the Long Island Wine Show?

Great personality. Looking forward to part 2!

Excellent show Gary. It’s been a while since I could watch an entire episode (not sure why I’m having trouble btw). Entertaining and informative.

Made Up QOTD: You’re interviewing skillz are good. Stop worrying about those naysayers.

Oh yeah, & for the books, the last time I had purple nerds was probably 4 months ago, gooseberries a few years ago, & I still need to try a star fruit 😛

You should try to get Charles Back on the show. Have you ever had a South African winemaker as a guest?

one of the best guests yet, great show gv.

congrats on the nyt article. don’t sweat the wine spectator forum, they’ll come around!

Yes! Excellent show, the exchange is like watching the finals at Wimbledon. Who cares what people say about the length of the interviews, please tell me that this is part 1 of 3.
I’ve watched all of Nick’s, old school with the big paper and markers, videos before and found him very amiable, knowledgeable, and entertaining…so this is a real pleasure to watch. The breakdown of the NZ terroir was great (how come the spell check in the comments does not recognize “terroir” on this, of all sites!?).

A 96 points episode. Great guest and the interruption ratio hit the spot. Wish tapes were longer to make this a 2 hour epic. The cereal episode / NY Times article / and this make a hefty sandwich.

oh yeah…I’ve had both the gooseberries and the star fruit, but no grape nerds.
Point Goldschmidt.
I guess I could give them nerds a shot in the interest of oenology and palate expansion, but Aussie shiraz is not that high on my list…I’d rather go for anything from Errazuriz. Had a couple at the vendemia in Pirque last year that were pretty awesome.

Great episode, can’t wait for the second installment.

p.s. congrats on the NY times article, I read it online after all the comments from yesterday’s show.

I’ve had gooseberries too, good fruit. I’m guessin this is gonna be a 2 parter.
Gotta say, havent really learned anything from this episode, but damn if it isn’t entertaining. Nick Goldschmidt is great.
& oh yeah, I been bugging you lately about doing a charbono tasting. I totally forgot to bring up vin jaune’s till now. I would LOVE to see an episode on VIN JAUNE’S [yellow wine from jura, but you know that i’m sure.]
So, sorry Gary but 2 things to bug you about now. Charbono, and vin jaune.
The gauntlet has been thrown.

Holy !@$* That was funny…LMAO…Thanks guys. Glass of wine in hand having fun watchin’.

Crazy times…

AAAOOOOOOSOME show! I did want to hear about the fruit before you started yapping about nerds. Good point tho. I can’t really remember nerds but the gooseberry jam I bought has been sitting in my fridge for years. For us baby boomers, we do know more about bad candy and bad cereal than good fruit.

GOOD…EVENTHOUGH I DON’T UNDERSTAND…

Great episode….good chemistry…….still having problem on the sound. On full blast but sound like at 1/4 level only….anybody having this problem?

Interesting to see Australian/NZ humour, culture clash where Gary didn’t get that Nick by taking the piss out of Australia showed he liked Australia. Oh the joys of culture clash

Nick seriously the home of Riesling is the Clare Valley
