Hey Dave, thanks for taking the time to highlight all the varietals that deserve a bit more attention from the world. It was your Saperavi video that helped guide my decision to procure some cuttings from UC Davis foundational plant service, which hopefully will do well in the high altitude/cold climate of Santa Fe, NM. Thanks again for all the knowledge, and please keep doing what you're doing!
Hi Charles: Thank you, so much for the kind words and for taking this wine journey with me. I think Saperavi is a great fit for your terrior. I wish you all the best with your cultivation. Cheers, Dave
Congratulations on 200! We really enjoy your recommendations and learned about so many new grapes. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and helping us enjoy wine even more! All the best to you in 2024!
Big congratulations on your Milestone!! After learning by reading and watching educational videos like yours, tasting has been tremendous to understanding wine, particularly comparative flights. My favorite was a mini-horizontal of 2 wines from the same vintage and main grape but from its entry vs. mid-level wines. Both were very enjoyable, but the fancier one was noticeably different and more than justified the 70% price premium! Keep the awesome videos coming!!🥳🍾🍷
Hi Mickey: Merry Christmas and thank you you for tuning in. Competitive flights are so fun. Vintages, producers, bagged samples. All cause you to pause and analyze the wine. Cheers, Dave
Congratulations on your 200th episode, Dave! It's such a cool story that five years ago you were shooting a video there in the vineyard with the very grapes that went into that bottle. I look forward to opening the bottles of 2018 De Nalys that I have laid down. I certainly appreciate the advice, information, and good conversation you give, both through the UA-cam channel and in person in your store. I will be sad when you retire from your day job, but I hope you can continue the UA-cam channel for many more reviews to come!
It’s been a pleasure to have met you and all the conversation we’ve shared. I have those lists we’ve discussed at the store and will give them to you next time we see each other. Thank you for the kind words, Cheers, Dave
Outstanding summation covering such important factors in creating the end product (outstanding wine). After all, it all starts with the grape. Thank you for a very well thought out video.
Hi Lori: Merry Christmas and thank you for tuning in. That wine is one of many exceptional wines. Wine is a journey not a destination so stay curious. Cheers, Dave
Another great episode! Keep up the good work👍. My wife and I met with friends in Paso Robles for wine tasting. When they turned their eyes up at the wines from Austin Hope, River Hall, Niner and other top wineries, I realized some people, sadly, are hopeless to educate on wine.
Hi Dan: Merry Christmas and thanks for watching. Paso is a great area and I did a video on that AVA a few years back. You may want to check it out. Cheers, Dave

Hi Carrie: Merry Christmas and thank you for your continued viewing. I’m going on a dry January but will pick it back up soon. Cheers, Dave
@@obi-wine-kenobi Dry January is a perfect time to do research and read about future selections! Merry Christmas and wishing you a bright 2024!

Hey Dave nice video! You were so descriptive about this particular bottle that once I’m back in the states I’ll be running to find it somewhere. Salud
Hi Nick: You will be happy you do! Hope you can find one. I know my organization is completely sold out. Good luck, Dave
