Troy's Tasting Room
United States
Приєднався 23 чер 2022
Hello and welcome to Troy's Tasting Room! Join me as I taste through the wines of the world, visit the wine lists of the most famous restaurants, and prepare for the most challenging wine tests and competitions. I like to focus on independent, sustainable, and unique wines that you can enjoy.
The TRUTH about Blind Tasting - What THEY don't want you to know!!!
Blind Tasting - the famed art of the sommelier, to simply smell a wine and identify exactly how/where/and when it was made. Is it an art? A technique of incredible skill and finesse? Or the work of charlatans and con artists? Today, we dive into the practice, analyze the practice across the trade, and draw our own shocking conclusions.

Sparkling Wine in the Traditional Method... Bubbles, but not from Champagne!
How about ranking the second wines to the first two growths?
Waste of my time
Jesus christ the mouton placement. This man wants to start a war
Mouton Rothschild in the D Tier?? I've had some amazing bottles from them.
"When the world needed him the most, he vanished..." I'm about to fly to Nico's just to get my hit of Troy's Tasting Room.
I think the best wine I've ever had was a Mouton. Can't believe you don't like it.
So glad I found your page! Loved the straight-to-point education and plethora of knowledge you dropped. Just subscribe and looking forward to viewing many more of your videos. Cheers!
Sommeliers are just actors to prop up the wine myth and prices. I personally don't drink wine, I hate it. Acidic and distasteful. I love the face of the waiters in fancy restaurants when I tell them I never ever drink wine.
Knows wine, slick humor, what's not to like? 😝😝😝
Did Troy leave youtube ?
Dufort Vivens above Lafite is very surprising to me! Haven’t had Lafite but I’d hope it’s better than Dufort considering the insane price difference
Please more of these tier ranking videos! Would love to see one for Napa cabs and Champagne
chappellet is definitely my kind of wine
There is a lot of money involved with a wine scoring number 1 in wine magazines, it means the wine will sell out. Whenever money is involved in anything in today's world, I automatically at least think "fix".
Any Dom Perignon Champagne Would Be Wonderful I Must Say!😋🕴🍾🥂🇲🇫
Durfort vivens is one of the only ones on this list I can afford.
Sad you left out leoville las cases ,chateau palmer out ,wtf you did to mouton and lafite shish 😢
Recent follower. Love this format of videos! Very educational :)
Love all those wines!
What happened to his face ? Was he beat up or had facial reconstruction surgery . Whats the mystery?😳😂😂
Got excited by the Miami Vice video, sad when I heard it wasn't the intro music.
Was very underwhelmed with the restaurant itself. Went there over Mother's Day weekend and while the service was excellent the food left much to be desired.
Hilarious video! Loved it!
Haut Brion CAN'T be beat.
I wonder when you gonna post again 😩
is this channel done? finito?
Keep making videos like this. You are extremely informative and professional.
You were missed Troy! Good to see your content as always. If I may ask you to review some wine lists in New Zealand and Australian that would be great. Restaurants like “Sid at The French Cafe” in Auckland or “Attica” in Melbourne. It would be very cool to see what you think! Keep posting! We love you!
Would love to see a similar tier ranking for the dry rieslings of Germany (Gutsriesling vs Gutsriesling maybe)!
1933 was a really bad vintage in Bordeaux. The Margaux is probably long gone.
25yrs???? Ain’t nobody got time for that!
Where is Troy! Where is Troy!
Drink the 12 Chapplatte Prittchardhill 2012....RP100 pts....
Promo sm 🤔
I’ve watched all of your videos 10x times each… this one is my favourite… PLEASE do this with producers in US. Or a specific region that would be so fun
MAKE MORE VIDEOS !!! Even if you don’t do videos on restaurant menus.
Tondonia Gran Reserva Blanco 01 is the current vintage released, the Reserva is 2011/12 thats recently released. I enjoy your videos and love Tondonia 😊
It can't be one of the most unique. Something is unique or it is not.
I love all your videos
Writing my first comment in my 13 years of a having a youtube account to say that we need more of these videos. C'mon man, I can't keep waiting like this
Really loved this ranking system and approach. Would LOVE to see versions for various areas….cult Napa wines, Pomerol, Burgundy, etc.
You work at Total wine ? I do and we have all these.
love choice
This was fun and on point, and fun😄♥️
I love this humor
As a Bordeaux drinker who enjoys the likes of Las Cases, VCC, Figeac, Lalande and Margaux wines, which Napa producers should I be looking at? Im torn between Shafer and Dunn.
I would point to the Dunn, particularly in reference to Las Cases. I might suggest trying both (side by side?) for an even more interesting experience, but if I had to choose, the Dunn will absolutely be more in line with those producers!
@@TroysTastingRoom Hi, is Dunn more classic in style compared to Shafer which is more modern? Do note that I'm in search of elegant wines with finesse. Hence, again with reference to Bordeaux, Ive tried and wasnt a fan of Cos, Montrose, Baron, Palmer as well as Amarone wines (high alcohol, fruit, oak) etc.
@@Spiritchaser93 Dunn is classic, but in an almost niche way. The wine is heavily driven by Brettanomyces, so the wine is mighty dirty in style. I think of that as classic, but it really depends on the frame of reference. I find Shafer is classic in reference to, say, 1980's to 2010's Napa Cab. Bear in mind that my perspective on those wines is narrow, too, as there are those with experience of Napa's wines back to Prohibition-Era. This is far deeper than is necessary to decide if you enjoy the wine or not, I just really enjoy discussing Napa wines from a broad perspective.
I know restaurants make big money on wine and beverages but 5X retail seems excessive……but we are talking French Laundry
Once again! Amazing and especially put in a nutshell 😂 Blind tastings are in my eyes enhancing your capabilities
YES! AND IT WOULD BE THE ROMBAUER! :D Made me laugh more than I'd like to admit!
Where did they get that sparkling Shiraz……. Wow.
