Best moment is when Robert Parker says that we should be making wine more accessible and friendly and GV turns the camera on himself to capture a big smile and a wink.That was a real laugh out loud moment for me https://khosim.com/

    Guy in front of you–nice rug. Did they lose your luggage in Spain? Even Bobby Parker was wearing a sportcoat. Jets toast–nice touch 🙂 you must have been drinking the wine instead of spitting…

    QOTD: I’ve been to several large tasting events and a few on a smaller scale, but I enjoy uncrowded tasting rooms the best or having people over to try some wines. Sharing and drinking with friends is probably the best “event”.

  • Wow, thanks for taking us behind the scenes in the Gary V world of tasting.

    QOTD: I just came back from the Toronto food and drink show a couple of weeks ago and did an Amarone tasting. It blew my socks off. I had a dessert Amarone, it was from classico and it was amazing, it was puckeringly dry but oh so sweet. All the raisins, dates and prunes for miles, but I can’t think of the name of the producer which is too bad.

    “whether they like it or not”

    Well put GV.. I think that this is a mini revolution.. One of allowing the masses to see the wonder of wine!! Thanks for letting us peek into the other side of the wine world, however, in classic style you make it your own!! Thanks for the sneak peak..

    QOTD: Shockingly none yet. Hoping someday to make a WL party somewhere to meet some of the baddest winers on the planet!!

    Hey Gary,
    After the tasting, did you run up and down the aisles of tables knocking over the wine glasses a la Sting in the Wrapped Around Your Finger video?

    Very cool, does seem a bit “stuffy” though.

    QOTD: Wine tasting at Peju in Napa. There was a really new age type guy doing the pouring, giving each wine personal characteristics. “This wine is not trying to be something it’s not, it’s happy with who he is, delicious, bright, a friend.” Ha!
