  • Hey Gary,

    Awesome episode, I’m a huge nebbiolo fan. It’s so easy to taste so many different wines. This was a good reminder that I need to go get some Barbaresco very soon!

    I will try Barbaresco as soon as I can. That might still be a while though.

    Gret set of wines there Gary! Good call on picking them.

    QOTD: I am torn on the AFC team after watching the jets sunday night. But I have been down that road before, with a rookie QB. (Steelers 2004).

    I think the logical choice being chargers/vikings. With logic more on the chargers. But it doesnt feel right saying that.

    Last week I would have called chargers/colts vs eagles.

    So my gut is telling me Colts/saints. Saints win it all.

    Love that you did a Barbaresco show! I've been a huge fan for a long time since I'm not patient or rich enough for Barolo. Great to hear some validation. QOTD – Shootout, Colts 38, Saints 30.

    I am having difficulty accessing comments on two shows, the Barbaresco and the Crozes-Hermitage shows. Could only access a few twitters but no emails. Has something changed? Let me know. The comments are fun and would like to receive them again

    Good show, and some great wine. Sad to see you didn't give Roagna a full fair chance. Its a big boy, and obviously needed some time to open up, but after one sip you sunk it. You would give a La Mission Haut Brion another day to show its colors, so why not here?

  • Nik_B

    Excellent show.. I'm loving Italian wine at the moment.

  • great show gary, very interesting

  • richardvinifera

    Has anybody razzed Gary for changing his shirt to create a facade of taping on different days? Lol, can't blame you for wanting to punctuate the episodes Gary! It doesn't matter if you wear the same shirt for 4 “days” straight!

  • Gary you are very special at this show good work
