EP 1000 Episode 1,000

Gary Vaynerchuk has finally made it to episode 1,000 of Wine Library TV! It’s been an amazing ride since that day in February 2006, with great guests, amazing (and sometimes awful) wines, as well as a lot of Jets talk. Today, the main focus is a huge thank you to all the Vayniacs who helped make this community…and a huge announcement from Gary.

Wines tasted in this episode:

    It’s been a wonderful ride Gary V. Fun and entertaining for sure, but you’ve also taken us to school on wine. Not to mention that you’ve taught us what fathers and sons should be all about. Bless you and thank you.

  • Looking forward to Chapter 2 Gary! Thanks for a fantastic Chapter 1!

  • Just sat down today to do some WLTV catching up and really glad I did. Last few episodes have been amazing, watching you give back to your fans like that. Congratulations on 1,000 and see you over at the Grape too.

  • Thank you Gary for bangin out 1000 shows. I never thought it was 100% narcissistic! You earned my respect with your honesty whether it helped or hurt the bottom line. There are some bottles in my cellar because of you. You helped me to further appreciate the old world. But we still have work to do. On to the daily grape!

  • Wow. Quite a statement.

    RIP WLTV. You’ve brought me so much enjoyment and knowledge and I will miss it tremendously. I really hope Mott comes to Daily Grape.

    Gary, Thank You!! I have tried so many different varietals that I never would have without your shows. You have also made me a better informed wine drinker. Good luck with the daily grape, and well see ya on the other side..

    I don’t really think we’re in the minority yet.

  • No matter what Gary, thank you for all you’ve done. You have indeed changed the wine world (for the better!). Having viewed the first Daily Grape episode it is possible that we may need to part ways but I wish you all the best. Good luck.

  • Thanks Gary for an awesome 1000 shows. I truly forward to watching Daily Grape.

    Daily means every day!?

  • Gary, I have to admit I’m a bit sad to see WLTV go, but also excited at same time for you, daily grape and all that’s to come !! You’ve had a huge impact on my life (I won an Apple TV back in ’08). Crush It and now the Thank You Economy continue to change the way I look at the changing wine world. I’ll see you on the Daily Grape, looking forward to you still “Bringing the Thunder”, just on a different format. Cheers ~ Max

  • I am a fairly new vaniac only been watching since 2009 but have really enjoyed WLTV.
    I figured that 1000 was going to be the end. I really liked reading the comments after the seeing the episode and I wish everyone the best. Will look at dailygrape and not try to compare it.
    SOTD; Thank you and WLTV will be missed.

    Gary,

    I have not watched the episode yet, but I felt compelled to comment anyway. It is obvious by all the comments how much this show means to people, so I will just say thank YOU Gary and congratulations on all that you have accomplished before and during WLTV.

    I also would like to thank this community, because without posters like many on this site it would not have been nearly as compelling, informative and entertaining as it was. Everyone has contributed to this forum in an individual nature that made it unlike anything I have plaid my humble part in.

    I look forward to more compelling and educational debate, discussion and GV’s magnanimous personality in the new format. CHEERS TO ALL VAYNIACS AND 1000 EPISODES OF WLTV!

    Congrats GARY!

    I’m sure someone has said this already, but we need 1000 commenters for Gary on this episode.

  • Double post..

  • Thank you! You have inspired so many people to start something of their own. You really inspired me to start (among ALOT of inspiration from http://Viini.tv) my own video blog at http://aleksimehtonen.com.

    So, again Thank You so much for all you have given and will give. It’s been ups and downs with WLTV for me but still the change you have made is huge.

    Cheers Gary and just get yourself to Finland!

    Well hopefully all works out so you can buy the jets.

    I’ve always liked your 30min episodes, hopfully WLTV does nothing under 30mins. How can you go wrong with Nicholas Joly for an hr, or that German Master of Wine, or any of those awesome wine guest, or 996, 997, 998, 999

  • Wow! That was intense! I cannot wait to see the specials on this forum and am really excited to embrace Daily Grape!

    Cheers Gary!

  • I have watched every episode since December 2008, and most from before then. Episode 1000 is the first time I shed a tear while watching WLTV, because (for the first time) even though I’ve met Gary twice, I’m ashamed that I have only commented a couple of times through the last 600 episodes.
    I have grabbed “Mark” at Daily Grape, and though my life is full of 10-14 hours of hustle every day, I resolve here & now, to comment regularly.

  • Globex

    Congrats and Cheers buddy!! I’ve very much enjoyed it. Good Night and Good Luck.

  • I once read that the best thing you can say to someone is a “thank you” when you sincerely mean it, so….

    SOTD: Thank You.

  • Jaybird76

    DAYUM! I planned on stopping to watch at a 1,000… Well going over to the Daily Grape

  • Thank you Gary and we love you too! I’ve seen nearly 1000 episodes and met you in person. You are the most inspirational and genuine person think I’ve ever met. I want to start a business where i can bottle your energy and sell it to others (and myself). Look forward to seeing you in Seattle. Good luck in your next chapter. I know you’ll do great!

  • Its 7:54 and i have an important meeting in 30 minutes, but i had to watch this to the end 😉 All the best my brother, you can count me in at dailygrape (already signed up). Congratulation to the endurance, but i guess, as much fun as you have, it wasnt even hard for you 🙂

  • Congrats on episode 1000 Gary! It has been such a great adventure watching WLTV through the years and now it will continue on Daily Grape!

    Just signed up for Daily Grape. Thank you so much Gary. You have changed my life by passing on your passion for wine and inspiring me to start my own blog. Thank you so much.

    http://www.mykitchenandyou.com wouldn’t exist without you.

    1000 is a large number. I’m pumped about daily grape. It’s going to be fun.
    I’m very happy that you are going to continue with the specials on WLTV. This is a fantastic platform and you need to come back and use it once in a while.
    all the best to you.

  • Thanks for the sniffy sniff and go ahead with the grapy grape!

  • Finally got to ep 1000, great stuff. Can’t wait to see how Daily Grape goes.

    Had to have a giggle when you said that WLTV will become an interview only show, am sure it won’t be too long before it’ll be whatever show fits the extended format. Either way, keep up the good work

  • Dear Gary, this is the first time ever I end up a show in WLTV and I feel sad, I’m not joking…
    Thanks for all the smiles and laugh you gifted us in these journey.
    This is not the end as you said, and we are all glad for it, but obviously this is a turning point and in someway the things will be different going on, who knows if even better or worst, but different.
    I will personally run to dailygrape in a minute but let me thank you once again for everything you teached us and to have changed if not everybody’s at least MY Wine World.
    Good luck.

    Huge congrats Gary!! Love ‘ya back. Looking forward to Daily Grape, and the new format for WLTV. Best wishes, -V

  • Awesome news, Gary. Congratulations on 1,000 episodes of WLTV, and thanks for everything you do for the wine world. I really admire the way you’ve been able to combine wine, media and technology so seamlessly- can’t wait to see what you have in store for us with DG. Keep up the good work.

  • I am with you from 805’th episode. And I enjoyed the thunder you bring to the table. And I thank you for sparking the interest for the wines in my mind.
    Congratulations for such an astonishing number 1000. Someone has to put some good words of you in the Guinness Book.
    And, because of you it is very probably that I will start a winery in the future, here in Moldova, or Romania.
    Maybe one day I will be one of your guests showing you a wine, form our lands, that explodes in your mouth in many layers of flavor …

    Wow Gary – tears in my eyes. Heading over to Daily Grape right now. Thanks for all the passion, energy, education, and fantastic memories. Congratulations and onwards!

  • JK

    Do I have to get an iPhone now? No way.
    Been here since the early 100s. Appreciate the insider’s take on the wine world and the bottles you have pointed us to.
    My daughter wants to visit The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando, I want to visit Wine Library.
