Lines of the day – ‘I literally want you to take a bell pepper, turn it into a boxing glove and punch me in the face’ and ‘If this was the 1960’s Mott would be smoking a lot of pot and I still wouldn’t be talking about Merlot.’

Great show, GV absolutely on point and pumped full of energy. This is what WLTV is all about

    Gary, isn’t Tannat originally from the Southwest region in France, which is to the south of Bordeaux? I could be wrong but what I heard before was that the Madiran appellation in the Southwest grows Tannat traditionally… oh by the way, #CKC: Michigan State University. We love you here man, definitely come down for your book tour. East Lansing MI, not a huge town but it houses a school of 50,000 students and the school owns a restaurant that holds Best of Award of Excellent from the Spectator. I gurantee you will have a great wine audience base. Interested, let me know. Tweet @dxpian.

  • @QOTD no/no – I’m a Samsumg Galaxy S I9000 guy. Android 2.2.1.

    Just had a Tannat from Uruquay lately and I was not happy with it at all. Fake fruit, bad structure.

    Unfortunately I only have a MacBook Pro and an iPod touch. iPhone plans are wicked expensive in Italy, and I’m holding out on the iPad for another generation or two, when it has received a coupld upgrades. Good episode, I dig S. African whites, the others I’ve yet to try.

  • No/No…I am an Android guy. Thanks for doing this show. I found you about a month ago and I cannot stop watching. Great stuff! I’ve never tried a Chinon and I am excited to try one this weekend.

    It is great to have you out Terrell, but don’t go filling Gary’s head with all this grandeur. We have got him about where we want him and all your going to do is make his head bigger than it already is. 😀

  • Anonymous

    I can’t believe more people haven’t commented on the outtakes. Hmmmmmm. Btw if you don’t come to WI on your book tour there will be conseqences GV. There will be consequences! 🙂

    Hey Gary, I’m part of the ckc’s and I’m rocking Mcgill University up north in Montréal, Canada. I’ve been watching the show for about 2-3 months and I’ve been into wine for about 12-18 months now. I really enjoy your show, keep rocking it! My question of the day for you: Do you know any great books about terroir and grappe varietals, from an historical perspective?
