Episode #89 – The Final Grape
After an amazing run that spanned more than half a decade, Gary Vaynerchuk today announces his retirement from producing regular wine video content. Thank you to all the Wine Library TV and Daily Grape fans that have made this chapter of Gary's life so gratifying.

If you are ever in Los Angeles you need to check out the Venokado wine store in Santa Monica. I like it so much that I decided to blather about it, wait a minute... I mean blog about it. ;-) Cheers!

Just want to be watching daily wine shows, trying to find the values and the lectures
Just want to be watching daily wine shows...Play in Play out, fade in fade out, drinking Vino does make me shout...
Sorry, bored and been listening to a lot of The Who and craving WLTV and DG.

You and me both. No more hockey since my boys lost on Saturday, hate NBA though at least baseball will occupy my void for a little while. Go Nats!
Something more intriguing and fun is on the horizon. I have a feeling.
P.S. I think AndersN should do another video or maybe Lisa? Hmmm, there's a thought.

Doing my monthly fly-by here. Yeah, shame about the Caps. I'm a New Yorker but it would be nice to see them finally hoist the Cup. Now with Dale gone, its going to be tough unless the big guns can self motivate. Maybe Mike Milbury will step in.....just kidding....that would be the kiss of death....

AndersN
Agreed, keynote Q an A in all honesty. The man could at least let us in Sweden know so we could flashmobbed the ecommerce symposium and demand a wine show :)

I've found a guy who has a similar style to that of Gary (and he has some knowledge of wine, too):

Wow!
Thanks, Last Lurker.
Still, Gary is the man.
I'm looking forward to his return.
Stay Rad,

Anyone recommend some good Cali petite sirah? As with many US wines, it's ridiculously difficult to get hold of here in the UK, which is frustrating. Just did a show on it, and enjoyed the EOS Reserve Petite Sirah 2008 - good balance and range of flavours, albeit a touch to fruity fruity and not enough bite in the tannins!
And GV - come back - even a monthly broadcast would be nice!

Hi Entente,
"La Storia" Petite Sirah from Trentadue is really dark and powerful.
http://www.trentadue.com/
Stag's Leap also makes a solid Petite Sirah.

I have also heard great thing about Retro Cellars but haven't had a chance to sample that one yet.
http://www.retrocellars.com/press_the_wine_hous...I look forward to your episode on Petite Sirah!
Cheers,

Thanks Scott. I'll give some of those a shot. Maybe through some continental European wine merchants (they seem better for finding wines from the US!). The Petite Syrah episode is up now, at www.unwined.tv !
Had a very, very enjoyable Petit Verdot yesterday guys... Finca La Anita Petit Verdot 2006 (91pts Wine Advocate). Great body à la J-Lo, strong fruit, bright tannins and chewy acidity, with a notable herbal twist (but not "green"!). Reeeeaaally pleasurable with my Argentine steak!
