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.

I do agree that it is a business for him and you must always take anything like that with a grain of salt. I like to use those vids mainly as a way to discover new wines that I might not otherwise try or notice
