  • Great shows Gary….

  • castello

    top 2?

  • And that question of the day is too much strain on the brain ๐Ÿ˜‰

  • Liz

    Uncle Junior!!!

  • Paul Conlon

    Nice tasting Gary – but could we not taste some Pontet Canet '09. At $150 a bottle I agree it's not cheap but it is the “vintage of the century”.

    Cheers,

    A very enjoyable part 2 episode! This is definitely a resturant I liked to visit…I plan on seeing if the fiance if he would like to dine there on July 10th. I looked at the shrimp scampi recipe with looks wonderful. Gotta love the give-aways!

    I liked the second episode better than the first and the Chianti Classico Riserva sounds like the wine to buy. Good episodes over all. Was a little questioning at the beginning but it sounds like they knew the business and were prepared and not just trying to play on the Sopranos name.

  • Great set of shows. Glad you didn't get whacked!

    QotD: 7

  • Yay! PTII
    Rats! I have to get out of the office to get down to Woodstock by 6pm…will have to watch this from home.
    Hey, I'll be in NYC this weekend, and Patsy's has a lunch menu…Hmmmmm.

  • NY Pete

    uncle junior is cool … does Fran Rogers know you are on the thunder show?

  • Allan

    This is entertainment! ! !

    I loved this G, and it looked like it was fun for you & Mott as well, so it's all good!

    Keep up the good work!!!

    I love Uncle Junior, what can i say…. GV is the new D. Corleone of wine, i mean look at these “mobsters”, they're humbled. (Salespitch i get, it ok, who cares) The Sopranos is the greatest thing ever to happen on tv. end of story! รผbercool!

    Pussy, though off camera, still gave you a run for your money G!

    Great camera work by The Mott! Kudos! Excellent Show!!!

    Qotd: No idea! 4?

  • SWEET. Just finished watching Part 1 and was hoping for more and sure enough Part 2 is now up!

  • Allan

    Meeeee toooooooo!!! Twenty UGH! ๐Ÿ™‚

  • Allan

    Yeah yeah yeah!!!

  • Allan

    These boys are just sooo much more likeable than The 3 Thieves!

  • giving points with the selling peeps there, again. Mr G don't do that , is it getting whacked that scared ๐Ÿ˜‰
    QOTD: 7

  • Oh yeah – do it. Patsy's one of the best parts about trips to NYC. Meatballs outta this world and Siciliano veal chop like nowhere else ๐Ÿ™‚

  • castello

    With a couple bottles of our Favourite Amarone! Oops, better stick with a Soprano wine!

  • BTW, hope Mott got a plate of food too.

  • Allan

    “Cheater Man” Mr. Google stikes again!

  • JC

  • Allan

    Or maybe an Allegrini Amarone? could rock!?!?!!

  • Just Jack

    A raffle YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I love raffles.

  • I was under the impression Gary meant today was Part 2. The whites were Part 1.

  • Steve_r_vb

    love uncle jun alot more than big pussy plus pussy kinda got annoying cause he wouldn't let gary talk.get these to virginia id love to buy a few of these bottles. gary i think that as good as these episodes have been its tough to have this many people on a single show and be able to pay attention to everyone but it was great still.

    GuidoTV….still not drinking their wine…good buffet http://www.winelx.com

  • ChicagoMatt

    Great pair of shows. Am definitely going to seek out that prosecco.

  • Just Jack

    I agree AndersN. I liked it when GV announced the new policy of not scoring wines with the winemakers and/or importers present. It only lasted for what seemed like one show, but it was a good idea.

  • Just Jack

    What he said.

  • Edward Salonia

    Nice 2 parter with a good amount of wine.

  • amsgpwarrior

    This video makes me want to fly straight to NYC and go eat at Patsy's with a bottle of that Chianti Classico Riserva.

    Loved the show. Loved the fact you were straight up with the ratings.

    QOTD: Have know idea. Haven't been to Ireland yet.

  • Guest

    Great two parter. Love Uncle Jun. Hate Johnny Ola. A fav scene in Godfather part 2 was when Michael asks Johhny Ola what he wants to drink. With a flair he says “Anisette” For those who don't get it, Dom played Johhny Ola in Godfather II.

  • Fun show. Definitely in for the poster. If I win send me a tweet or a PM on the forum @isgomez. – Ivan

    QOTD: NFI

  • Kurtswa

    I was anxiously awaiting the 2nd part of this.
    I agree with others, I am dying to try Pattsy's after watching this. ohhhhh the meatballs..
    I do enjoy Chianti. Outside of Ruffino, I have found the Terlato Santa Margherita Chianti good drinkers for the price. WL/CW has me spoiled on their awesome Brunello and Barolo offerings though. Would have loved to been at that table with you guys. Great episode

  • laughed out loud at outdoor-voice levels from these two episodes. vinny, you kill me! love it.

  • JayZee13

    You know, I have to say that the Sopranos branded wines sound like a good effort and not just a marketing gimmick, but that is indeed a tough sell to serious wine fans who may dismiss such efforts out of hand. The Chianti Classico Reserva sounded like a really good wine that I would probably buy at that price point.

    QOTD: Sorry, too easy with the Internet – but an absolutely classy guy asking the question.

  • Tcc1525

    Good show! Big fan of “Big Pussy and Jr.”! Also, as you addressed it seems from your reviews that they did try make good quality wines and not just capture sales from the name alone. Will be looking for some to try!
    Thanks Gary!

  • drt999

    Shall we say a very New Yorkish show?

  • drt999

    We can only hope he did!
