Gary needs to move a LOT of wine and although he is critical of some wines in his reviews, don't forget the fact that he is running a business to make money, first and foremost. He stayed at my place one time and I still recall him that day checking his sale promotion and exclaiming, "Just moved 183 cases of _______ in 4 hours!" (High end Barolo IIRC, not cheap by any means).

Applies to any retailer, of course, not just Gary.

If you really want to learn more about wine, then you should find a wine tasting group in your area, I am sure you'll learn way more and at a better pace that way.
