    Dude, after watching….on of my favorite parts of today’s episode is just after you aske where the Bobble head is…….and you start imitating GV’s comments at the time we gave it to him……I was rolling!!!

  • Good mixed bag of winos. Where’s all the babes; I’m almost expecting Father Flannigan to show up next! Good format Gary.
    Smell it first. TR

  • NY Pete

    right back at ya my friend … 🙂

  • Sam_mtl

    Omg!!!!!
    Answer of the 4th question : Ive NEVER had any Californian Cabernet !
    Yeah, i know, kinda weird…But im not american, so i guess it’s ok!
    Ill have one soon, promess!

  • Jeremy

    Lord Vaynerchuk, these are fine episodes indeed! What a spectacular countdown to 1,000. I deeply regret not commenting more in the WLTV forums! This would have been the perfect opportunity for me to propose to KMurph!

    I have always believed Sasha to be an excellent duellist. However, I’ll wager a shiny shilling that MOTT mops the deck with the whole lot of you!

    Cheers!

    Jeremy

  • Good show. GV, I saw you on CNBC today with Erin. Great interview!

  • Anonymous

    You guys are having too much fun now..!!!!!

    QOTD: 2007 Erna Schein “The Knockout” Cabernet Sauvignon … yes I would get a few more of this for sure

  • Anonymous

    GARY!!!
    Where are the women? LOL
    Why am I NOT there? :o)

    Great show…fun to watch…nice guys…a little crowded …when Im there I want it to be just you and I… Hee hee.

    Love ya Gary, thank you!!

  • Anonymous

    QOTD: Hopefully not; SS Chris; Mott; and the Clone 5 Napa Cab and yes I would buy it again.
    Great episode. As a long timer here on WLTV since episode 6 it’s good to finally put faces to all the comments.

  • good stuff guys….nice seeing some of the WLTV gang again hanging out.

    And since Mott nearly bowled over Gary with the Crush It video chest bump, Gary will need that foreign object.

  • Nick

    u got my vote to be on the show, LOL

    1on1 that is

  • Nick

    Great episode! Haven’t had many california cabs so it’s a pity i can’t relate to the wines you guys were trying.

    Sasha comes out victorious in a cage match.

  • QotD1 — Yeah, they’ll win.
    QotD2 — It should be called the SS Chris Spreadsheet, for sure. At least make the URL sschrishspreadsheet.winelibrary.com
    QotD3 — If this were a normal Triple Threat match, I’d go with Mott. But since you have to climb up and over the steel cage to win a Steel Cage match, I’m going with Gary’s quickness and dexterity here.
    QotD4 — some middling cab at a tasting. I don’t remember its name, and I wouldn’t purchase a bottle.

    Thanks Nick!! Thats one vote!! LOL

    QOTD:
    Same as yesterday, Who Cares!
    Gary’s Ratings as told to SS Chris
    Gary but Sasha, bloody and looking up from the floor, would be shouting at the other two, ‘Do you want some more?’
    2004 Turnbull. YES Thanks Gary.

  • If this was Survivor SSChris would be the first voted off.

    QOTD 1:Hmmm
    QOTD 2:WGAF
    QOTD 3:Mott
    QOTD 4:Cliff Lede . . yes

    btw. I thought I’d give Allan a break today and DISQUS accommodated 😉

  • Anonymous

    Barry Grass for President!!

  • QOTD 1: No idea.
    QOTD 2: Gary’s Ratings
    QOTD 3: Sasha
    QOTD 4: Anderson’s Conn Valley Reserve 2006 and yes.

  • Anonymous

    You guys are having too much fun.
    qotd; yes,yes,GV,GB,yes

  • Another good show. Although I’d like to see some things other than expensive Napa cabs…

    QOTDs: Yea, probably. Gary’s Ratings. Mott, no question. Atlas Peak Howell Mountain from 2005 – it was nice, but if I didn’t get a RIDICULOUS deal on it, I probably wouldn’t by it again.

  • QOTD: No
    QOTD: Gary – credited to ss
    QOTD: Mott
    QOTD: not sure

    Sausage fest…Where are the women ?

    A foreign object huh?

    Great episode, I am moved by the enthusiasm!

  • Anonymous

    QOTD: HELL NO, Gary’s Scores, Sasha, a V. Sattui Cab- it was nice- yes.

  • DaveAll

    Me, too! Rand, just show up! How could he refuse doing 1001 with you?

  • Leatherpalate

    Yankee’s suck
    SS Chris’ Spread Sheet
    94 Dominus
    Mott

  • Anonymous

    Haha! You think? I’ve actually said I will do that…not for 1001..but that I would show up..I think I was advised to do this on a Monday…? hee hee..
    Thanks for the vote DaveAll!! xo

  • Man, I’m loving these episodes!

    QsOTD:

    No to Yankees

    SS Chris’ Spreadsheet

    Sasha, because she would just let Gary and Mott take each other out first

    2000 Robert Mondavi Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon – Don’t know if I would buy again. I’ve had a couple of these, all very good, but a little underwhelming for the price point.

  • Anonymous

    QOTD1;?
    QOTD2; Gary’s ratings
    QOTD3;Mott
    QOTD4; Nine points, maybe

  • DaveAll

    Great seeing Kahuna, (he needs new episodes on his site!) and actually the table was nice.
    Good show, guess you need some females to pick a white wine! (or was SS Chris the token? haa)
    Yes, about tougher than the forums, as if we all had to FACE you when we posted, i think we’d mostly be lurkers. hahahaha.
    For 1001-2000, you need an Ed McMahn, like a side kick that can take up the slack or run a few shows and start to give you some time! No one on this show is that person, but you should consider one.
    Qotd: meh.
    QotD: SS Chris is a hoot. I never saw the spreadsheet.
    QotD: Mott!
    QotD: Mondavi private select – loved it.

  • Truly another classic. Loved the “excuse” to get another pour, LOL.

    QOTD1: (fingers crossed)
    QOTD2: SS
    QOTD3: Mott
    QOTD4: Joseph Phelps Cab, don’t remember what year, at a friend’s bachelor party. Maybe.

  • NJ Big Chris

    These episodes are amazing. I feel like its friday night and I’m sitting around my frat house table drinkin’ up again. good times.

    QOTD1: Yankees rule all.
    QOTD2: how about SSCHRIS Present’s Gary V’s Ratings
    QOTD3: Sasha.
    QOTD4: Last Napa Cab I had was a 2003 Martin Ray Diamond Mountain and I loved it.

  • NJ Big Chris

    Lord Vaynerhuck, lol…..

  • QOTD: Could care less about the Yanks sorry
    QOTD: just plain, “Spreadsheet”
    QOTD: Gary, Too much hustle
    QOTD: Joel Gott 815 08′ yes

  • I’m one of the women in the top 50 posters over on the forums. We were invited, but none of us could make it to New Jersey that weekend.

  • Anonymous

    I think is is the best episode ever!

    Gary, would love if you had a wine tasting (get together) for all the Vaniacs old and new. A paid event so we can all try some great wines/food together and have a good time. I would be on the first plane out of Australia to attend that event 🙂
