Great to hear from a producer who does what he does because he likes the boose and thinks about the customer. As a scientist myself the whole cork issue was so well put!

I do record to a solid state device as the primary and to tape as a backup. But when the tape runs out the camera stops recording so I had to swap in a new tape and stop the show. There was still plenty of time on the ssd but sometimes these things happen.

The difference between this episode's guest and the last episode's guest is the difference between playing left tackle for the New York Jets and playing left tackle for the Springfield, NJ Pop Warner All-Stars!

The truer, the fewer.

i like this guest a lot, hopefully i see some of this wine around somewhere

Good show 'part one'

Aaaah this episode and guest is like a fresh spring breeze after being stuck in traffic in Lima Peru for an hour with no AC. Wink wink nudge nudge. 😉 Lovin' it so far.
QOTD1: Nick Drake, he died in '70? and then in 90's was discovered when Volkswagon used Pink Moon in one of their commercials. Now he is recognized as one of the all time greats.

They should try juice boxes….or maybe capri sun pouches.

I love the description of this “wine”

“A lovely salmon pink color, with light flowery-fruity aromas highlighted by strawberry and a touch of lemon”

Dude, I could listen to you guys talk for hours. Two business minded men talking about an industry they love. Plus he isn't trying to hide, nor is he agreeing with everything you are saying, you are agreeing with him. I would have to say he is my favorite guest in the 2 1/2 years I have been watching.

her alabastor skin reflected off the moonlight..boom,,,,,done!She was like warm butter on a sundy mornin

Toke along is addictive//////hunreddollarsmyass!

Great episode.

oh, this show was posted late.. True statement Brian, wine collecting is addictive. Very nice show with loads of funny and interesting facts/thoughts/chatter. I guess wine geeks can be entertaining. ” I cant even stand grapes” WHAT..how do the man check the the fruit then? Only chemical analysis?
QOTD:

Allen

Thanks for the wonderful & informative response

Now Gary is capable of taking some heat, and doesn’t need your useless input.

GO find a hole somewhere in the mid West and stay there…. you’re forgiven

Mr. know it all, ask Gary about his new upcoming radio talk show on Sirius Satellite radio.

Somehow I sense that you will not be able to control your urge to respond, try hard not to.

Best guest since Garrett Oliver!

I would love to try these wines, although i'm a little concerned when it's Pinot at 15%.
Brian keeps it real, by not overpricing his wines. Alot of winemakers could learn something here… And Gary looked truly impressed about the first one…
I like Brian's philosophy about wine as well….. looking forward to Part Two.
Screw cap rules!!!

Qotd: Elvis Presley's '68 Comeback Special definitely.

qotd: Mozart and Bach

LOL…just my dna lol!

Nice and intelligent guest.

You stole my answer from my brain! How did you do that??!!

I think he said the exact opposite of what you accuse him of. If you know him personally and you know something we don?t that is one thing, but according to many of the other comments you are in the minority. Find some evidence besides your personal opinion and I would be happy to entertain your accusations, until then stay in the lurker closet.

Oh, I’m responding, although it is hard to respond to that post, I dont know where to being. I will use your idiotic format of asking retorical questions so that you will understand me clearly.

You think you know wine because you buy a lot of it?
Who are YOU?
Do you acctually think anyone listens to you either?
Shove your cow shit back where it came from. You have no idea who I am, I was just asking a legitimate question. You have a fantastic weekend too fuck tard.

Thanks for slowing down the internet.
You need to see a psychiatrist, about this compulsive disorder, of putting your nose where it wasn’t called for.
Watch you language, Mr. tough guy….
If you were here in Staten Island I would teach you some manners..
Sorry I cant’ down to your level, as I am not Jacques Cousteau…

As you might say: You’re an insignificant piece of dust particle.
Now, my friend, DO NOT REPLY,,,, control yourself,,,, do try hard, as much as you want to….. DON”T

I really enjoy when an intelligent guest is on the show providing not only their take on what the wine means to them, but as a whole what the wine world means to them. I look forward to part two.

Gary, Great guest, Brian is an awesome figure in the wine world, consistently fun wines and reasonable prices. His 2008 Brosseau Vineyard was a HUGE hit at this years Pinot Posse Tour

This was a great episode. Being new in the wine game, it's nice to see that there are people out there like Brian. He seems to have passion for what he does, giving him the success he has seen. The price point is just right, imo.

I do love how Gary was like “the hell with it, I'm going to taste the wine while he keeps talking”…lol. Ever since you have gotten into the tea-thing, you seem to find that component in a lot of wines. Do you think, if you start tasting, for example coffee, would you see that in the wine more than tea?

I am looking forward to part 2. Great choice of guest, Gary!
