    QOTD1: No way
    QOTD2: You must give credit where credit is due. SS Chris!
    QOTD3: I’m going with Gary, he’s too spry for the rest of them
    QOTD4: The last Napa Cab I had was Starmont Cabernet Sauvignon. Not a bad effort.

    Another great episode! Loved it!

    QOTD 1: I don’t care, it’s just baseball.
    QOTD 2: SS Chris.
    QOTD 3: Sasha
    QOTD 4: Stag’s Leap Artemis. Yes, I’d buy it again. (I think I did)

  • Classic #2!

  • I always thought SS Chris was a mystical figure! That room has some real WLTV Legends in there!! You guys should do a sitcom together 😉

    qotd 1: The Yankee’s can tongue-punch an elephant in the fart-box.
    qotd 2: Whatever will keep SS Chris complaining the longest.
    qotd 3: Mott. Even in a 2 on 1.
    qotd 4:Clos Pegase 07. Bought it on a steak house wine list for $40. Although a nice list price, without time to air it was basically oak juice. I ended up corking the majority of the bottle and taking home. It was quite good after a long decant…..but I wouldn’t buy it for home consumption. So, a catch 22.

    fantastic!!!!!

    Like x1,000,000 regarding responce to QOTD 1!

  • QOTD1: Yankees…yes.
    QOTD2: Should be called “The spreadsheet that doesn’t have a single shout out to CaliCab”
    QOTD3: Gary. Sascha’s slowing down, and Mott is too pacifistic. Gary is like a killer troll on meth.
    QOTD4: 2005 Textbook Cab. Nope. Better than the first time, but still very meh.

  • Matt

    QOTD1: No
    QOTD2: Whatever
    QOTD3: Mott FTW
    QOTD4: Hum, long time since I had Napa Cab, I think I the last I had is Caymus SS 2007 last summer at the winery and I bought a bottle when I went back here in Canada (my luggage where already full of 9 bottles….).

    What an incredible panel of wine luminaries.

    This one was much more entertaining than the last one in my opinion. SS Chris stole the show, that guy is awesome. I am beginning to understand why the “original vayniacs” is such an awesome old guys club (for the most part).

    QOTD 1: probably, but they will not last past the first round of playoffs. The dynasty is dead, get over it (I admit I would not say that if I was as close to NY as those guys are)
    QOTD 2: SS Chris’s spread sheet, Gary gets enough thunder as it is.
    QOTD 3: Mott, all the way.
    QOTD 4: I honestly cannot remember, it has been a while. I think it was a Stag’s Leap, and yes I would buy it again.

  • NY Pete

    damn Pat’s glass is empty

  • Great show and looked like alot of fun. I won’t get too emotional but you Gary have given more to me (I’m sure I can speak for other Vayniacs) than you can ever imagine. I have spent more candlelit evenings and a nice glass of vino with you than anyone else I have ever known. Thank you for the memories as Bob Hope would say.

    QOTD #1: No
    QOTD #2: SS Chris Compilation
    QOTD #3: Mott (love ya G-Man but Chris thinks like me if that makes sense)
    QOTD #4: Clark-Claudon and yes I would buy it again.

    Cheers to all,

    This show totally blows yesterdays show away. Great job to all.

    I think I’m tearing up. Gary, your comments are so heart felt and It is coming across very strong. The Cabs are definitely a great choice. I am disappointed there hasn’t been any Bordeaux yet.

    QOTD 1: NO!
    QOTD 2: SS_Chris Spreadsheet Definitely! There should be some infringement rights there. 😛
    QOTD 3: Kahuna, I don’t think there is a Stasha. 😛 Sasha would win. By the way, I dissed you yesterday on the shorts and boatdockers. My bad, I’m a fan, but it is winter. 😛
    QOTD 4: 2007 Louis M. Martini, Yes!

  • NY Pete

    great show gentlemen!
