Hi Gary,
Excellent explanation regarding the two wines – & how you enjoyed one wine over the other simply from a flavor profile, but still rated them both well. Nice show

qotd – At least 550 shows – And you still continue to bring wine inspiration

QOTD: close to 600. I discovered WLTV before episode 400. or about 3 years ago

I like all formats of WLTV but I must say my favorite is one varietal with 2-3 bottles. “nerding it up”

I have seen them all to date and I just started watching 3 months ago.

but Casper never vanished, did he?

That’s odd, since Euro and dollar is really weak against the Swedish krona at the moment 🙂
but if you get one for 25 bones that is good and the one for 45 (or 60 as some cost were I can buy) bones is not any better, then it’s not value fall the time. And I think teher is about 60-70 I can get hold of.
BTW How is Indiana these days?

roughly two weeks 🙂 in 5 years. I have had longer vacations 🙂

QOTD: Between 40 and 50 shows… love them, btw!

Nice format!
QOTD: Has to be at least 700! My first memory is when you did the champagne tasting from the parking lot in the blizzard! I thought “this guy is nuts” and I got hooked!! Keep up the good work…lov ya GV! //

Perhaps just easing up on the exclamation points.

p.s. I liked the girly men comment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh snap. Some has been taken. 😛

So it would be pronounced DMELBA not DEEMELBA? ;P

Stop being a silly turnip Dr. E. If I can butch through watching the brown bag episodes, you can handle guests.

771 episodes!~!

Great episode. I think I’ve only had a Barbera D’Alba once, and I always go for one of the nebbiolo based Piemontese wines instead. I think tomorrow I’m going to have to switch things up a bit..
QOTD: I’d say I’ve seen a little over half the episodes. I watch on iTunes usually, so I don’t often make it over to post a comment.

Gary is ambasador of italian wines**************dont know why!!!!!!!!!!!

What’s!!!!! Wrong!!!!! With!!!!! Exclamation!!!!! Points!!!!!? Gotta!!!!! Love!!!!! Them!!!!! 😛 Sorry!!!!! Girly!!!!! Man!!!!! 😮

QOTD:
400-500

Regards

I’ve probably seen 700+ but have tuned out mid-episode with some of the more pretentious guests

I think you are responding to my comment about being better with feet than hands or something like that, if you are, you’re sick! Can I get your phone number?? 😉

Well, it is official, a couple of those wines will be incorporated in my blog.

Thank you!

Dang it! Trying to respond to AndersN and the wonderful world of Disqus won’t let me!

Love Barbera. Best deals in town. ANSWER of the DAY: 500 – 550 or so. How many have you seen of mine??

I tend to have Disqus problems at work but not at home (where I probably have a newer version of IE). They have rules against downloading and installing here at work. But today I downloaded/installed Firefox. So far so good.

Thank you, it?s nice to be noticed. I still watch each new episode when it arrives and comment when I?m inspired to do so. If there?s been a change it?s due to the fact that I don?t always have time to read the comments. Reading the comments probably inspires me to comment more than the show does. Disqus not associating my response with the message to which I was responding may have discouraged me from commenting some of the times, but with your help I may know have that problem solved.

Big G, Good one, can’t wait to try Barbera d’alba. I don’t know why I haven’t in the past, but I guess so many wines, so little time.

QOTD: I started watching around EP 170 and then I went back and watched from #1. So all would be my answer.
