QOTD: 7. Of course I cheated!

Great show.

Great two-parter GV. Great guests and a great promo for a type of wine (novelty) I would generally never purchase. Goes to show you need to try it before you judge it.

I lumped Coppola into the novelty category until earlier this year. One of the most surprising experiences I had this year was tasting Coppola's 2005 Rubicon Rubicon wine. I've had the 05 Rubicon Cask in the past, thought it was good but not mind blowing, tried the 06 Rubicon Cask and thought it was awful. I wasn't expecting too much from the 05 Rubicon Rubicon, and when I tried it, it blew me away. Easily one of the best youngish Cabernets from the US I've had in the last year. If I had to pick my top 5 youngish (05 or later) california Cabs I had in the last year, the Rubicon would be in there (along with 2007 Quilceda Creek, 2007 Scarecrow, 2006 Schrader T6, 2006 Bond Pluribus); it'd outrank the 06 Screaming Eagle.

I really guess ya shouldn't knock it till you tried it. Enjoyed the shows.

boo

I was drinking prosecco while watching this show! haha.
I’m glad the first show influenced you to go out and get a bottle, it’s one of my fave varietals.

Question answer: 7
Have to say I love your show and agree with the ratings you have put for this amazing selection of wines.
PS- I would whack anyone for that signed picture.

You must get control of the quoty fingers. Just say it like you mean it. On another note, I can't believe it, but I am eager to try Sopranos wine someday. Nice job.

These two episodes were epic!!!! I wish I could get these wines out in Cali!!!

are you kidding me?! put me in the hat for a chance to win!!!

I love this show. great work on the reviews and i'd love to give these wines a run. we'll see, maybe when i visit nyc.

QOTD: i have no idea.

Fine show. Far from great.

GV air-quotin all over the place!

That's cool Gary, If I win could you sign it too. Thanks and I love the show. I drink Chianti so trying these will be great!

Fantastic show. Great group. Thanks Gary. QOTD: 7.

Fun pair of episodes, and they had everything I like in a WLTV episode- good wine, education, and fun guests.
QOTD: I haven't a clue. I've never been to Ireland, although I want to, but even if I had I don't know if I'd know the answer!

I'd like to do that toast at dinner, but I would be waring concreate golashes!

Makes me want to go down the street for some meatballs! I don't think I could keep up with all of the eating and drinking that went on at Patsy's though.
So I got a bottle of Sopranos last year as a gift………put it in the cellar figuring it was a gimmick wine…I'll have to give it a try now. Thanks for the education!

Great show! I love the Sopranos and will seek out the wines in New Jersey.

I want the fuckin autographs….Please

Great second part too! Really cool story about getting into acting (singing). Definitely will need to try a few of the Soprano wines at some point. My parents are both massive fans of the show.

QOTD: 7 according to the other Vayniacs.

Daveall: Truck driving is a noble quest but I drove my rv cross country on my own and it cured me of ever wanting to do it for a living. It was a gas and I loved it but not on a schedule etc. Try it a couple times for fun before you committttt. Just sayin

Da Bearz!

Get over it. Drink the wine!

Not everyone can be a Soprano. I’m a Baratone myself.
I don’t have a drinking problem,,,,,less I can’t get a drink.

Bring your paycheck dude!

Great episode. The first one was hilarious. Glad you didn't get wacked. Nice to see the guys saying how much they learned from you in that short time.
