They spit the wine out because they're not trying to get irrevocably shithammered drunk, which seems like a waste to me but that's the reason. The idea is that you're going to be sipping dozens of wines with cheeses and even if you're only getting a sip each you're going to end up drinking more than a bottle strait to your head so rather than just gulp it all down you spit it out so you can try a lot more combinations and without destroying yourself.
Sounds like a coward strat
Yeah drinking 30-40 glasses of wine simply isn’t healthy for anyone.
@@FilmAcolyteReturns Death will find me unafraid, razor-sharp smile on my wine-stained lips.
I fear not the reaper, I fear a life unfulfilled.
I don't understand the allure of getting drunk.
@@christopherclayton5500it’s definitely an interesting feeling. I don’t do it much anymore because I’m over thirty and my body hates me.
"As a wine tasting expert, I can determine this does definitely taste like wine!"
It also has hints of.... alcohol.... and grapes.
I worked at this place in Oregon that was basically a "wine tasting restaurant". You paid a flat rate of $150 a person, and it included an appetizer, dinner, dessert, and 8 full burgundy glasses of any wine of your choosing. All I did was wash glasses all day. The was a separate dishwasher for everything else.
When Alicia said art is worth 0 while I was in the middle of drawing something I looked up and shed a tear
AI go brrr
Art is a synonym for poverty.
Hey maybe it'll make it worth something
2 fun facts from Italy about wine:
- If you are in Italy near Chieti (A province in Abruzzo) stop by Ortona: there is a fountain from which spills free red wine all year round (I went there once, the wine was actually really good); there are other wine fountains in Italy, but they are only available during certain events.
- There is a legend of a ghost living in the cellars of the Castle of Montevecchio, in Tuscany; he was the owner of the castle, a passionate winemaker, and supposedly he inspects the quality of the wine in the cellars and the vineyards of the area.
I now have another reason to visit Ortona if I ever go to Italy. I did not know about the wine fountain.
On the second fact, didn't Dream Theater make a song about the guy in Tuscany?
15:20 yes but food “markup” is because the chef cooked said food, presented it and made it taste good. But with the wine they just bought the bottle and opened it. So it doesn’t really compare
My Dad works in the business of sparkling wine and Champagne, One of his favorite passtimes is organizing blind champagne tests, with bottles from 10 to 200$, just to show how almost noone ever chooses the expensive one as their favourite, in fact, most award winners in the blind tests are under 50$ 🤣
Customer being all "mayhaps I find a hint of citrus, perchance a metallic tone, like a breeze of dirt in the wind".
Meanwhile Alicia holding the bottle, "yeah sure, whatever you say man".
My brother and his wife visited an Italian restaurant on their honeymoon. They were expecting an Olive Garden kind of situation, but it was a five star restaurant that this Italian grandma ran out of a building that used to be a house. They showed up in jeans and band shirts and everyone else was in tuxedos and evening gowns. We joke now that everyone must have thought they were loaded lol.
Honestly, this will probably remain one of my favourite "last thoughts" in a video. Just a bit of perspective and positivity about the whole thing.
As annoying or funny as it can be, it's ultimately a harmless hobby on par with the others mentioned. Let people have their fun.
I'm all for letting people enjoy their hobbies, it's when they talk down to people over it that gets me pissed. The reason nobody shits on stuff like model trains the same way is that model train guys don't act like their hobby makes them better, smarter people than you, which is what the stereotypical "wine snob" is doing that everybody hates them for.
@@UrLeingod That's an obvious exception. At the same time, however, you can just choose to not associate with those people. If they're your friend you can talk with them and get them to understand that they sound like a doofus - if not, they probably weren't that good of a friend in the first place.
yeah its easy taking a shit on others hobbys, but Internet Historian is a chad for wraping his content up with pointing a finger back at the viewer and reminding us all that in the end of the day we all freaking weird.
Laugh at others is okay as long as you remember to also laugh at yourself, else you might just become the real snoob.
Hey. Hey. Hey. As a dude in his thirties that spends all his time painting Warhammer and is beginning to flirt with the idea of model trains... hear me out. Sex? Fifteen minutes of fun. Painting little model dudes with big pew-pew guns? HOURS of fun. Also, like, Happy New Year to y'all as well. I'm super happy to have discovered this channel, and Alicia and all that jazz.
That sounds like a stamina issue to me.... fix that and you can do hours with both.
Hey Alicia. 2023 has been a hell of a year hasn’t it. I am so happy that I discovered your channels so many months ago. Went from having never even heard of you to you being my favorite content creator in such a short time. Happy new year
Fun fact: Moxxie during the Ozzie's episode holds a wine glass correctly by the stem, which shows how he really knows his stuff.
Crimson probably taught him fancy table manners so he could both intimidate other mafia dons and/or blend in well doing sit downs and negotiations.
Everyone like "ooh I want to work fine dining now."
Alicia: "Fine dining? A FINE FUCKING MESS!!"
the "no fat chicks" line actually had me stunlocked for a second ngl xD
45:26 Alicia, you just have to steer him toward being a Warhammer models dude instead of a train dude. Much cooler attention to detail, and you can paint Slaaneshi stuff with him then! Oh, also Skaven! And 47:05 "Necrophiles", sit back and crack open a cold one! And they even keep the wine right there for easy access!
The concept of a “corking fee” is hilarious to me.
I mean it makes sense to me, cause like it's kind of rude to bring in your own food or drink anyways, but if you have a SUPER expensive or special bottle you brought to open, the restaurant will allow it, but it's not gonna drive into their business for allowing it.
That cog in the knee joke hits home for me cause a friend of mine had to have cogs in his knees because he fell out a window. He’s alright but he hates the knee gears.
Lmao
Not to mention that now every metal detector will blare out when he goes through it and he'll have to explain why the thingy is beeping around his knee
@@Homodemon Yep, I can’t tell ya how many times he’s said to me “I hate these fucking Knee gears!”
You skipped his video on Paintings on his Incognito Mode channel. The order of his Fancy series goes:
1. Theater
2. Paintings
3. Wine
It took the french 8 years to think of thicker bottles and they couldn't even figure it out on their own. This is why we need a cure for Frenchness.
13:45 If water works with any food, then flavored water works as well. Wine is just flavored water at its core, so it pairs. The same goes for any other drink, beer with steak, wine with steak, water with steak, Mountain dew with steak.
It's all based on how you view the pairing, does it fit for your taste? If you like both, then they will pair great, so if you like to eat steak and drink milk then they will go hand in hand.
Hey guys here is a little something for the happy new year, you too Alicia 🎊🎉

Fun Fact
"The customer is always right."
is NOT the full quote
the *FULL* quote is: "In matters of taste, the customer is always right."
As such, it does _NOT_ mean that every fool thing they say is correct and should be obeyed without question
it means that if the customer wants warm white wine, you cannot say they are WRONG to want that, even is chilled is normally how it is served
Likewise, if the customer wants it chilled, and you serve it chilled, it isn't YOUR responsibility to keep it that way after the sale. THEY own the wine now, so what they do with it is up to them
however, a restaurant may have marked up the price enough to want to keep the rich fool happy thinking they are getting one over on them by getting more wine for "free" by getting it warm and asking for more
39:44 Something that IH doesn't convey well: In a restaurant where they present the bottle to you before opening and then pour a small amount to taste, the point is only for you to verify it is the bottle you ordered before they open it, and to check that the wine has not gone off. Unless one of those things is an issue, the only polite thing to do is quickly nod and let the server get on with their job of serving.
Reminds me when our family went to a restaurant once and the wine ordered tasted really funky or something. After my brother (who tasted) commented the waiter tried it too, agreed, and then brought out that weird decanter bottle thingy to let it breathe more or something (I don't drink wine, I don't actually know anything the science behind this, just remember what happened). Afterwards it tasted better and the waiter then served from it
It wasn't really a fancy restaurant, nor was it really expensive wine, but it shows that tasting it beforehand to check if the wine is ok can indeed be important I feel
Not related to wine, but to dining (look, I just need a place to put this where other people might feel the same way):
My dad doesn't work fine dining, he's lead manager at a Seattle pizza place, but he and his boss treat it like and emulate fine dining to enhance the customer experience. My dad has worked at this place since it was a local chain with like 10 locations all run by the same guy throughout the Seattle metro area, and he delivered for the one in the shitty ghettos of south Everett back then. It was still treated by the community as a fine dining establishment, mainly because the price/quality ratio was high yet respectable, but also because the previous owner put the business in debt to make it look like you were sitting in some Seattle lounge.
When the guy sold all his locations to eager managers who wanted to run their own pizza places, they realized he sold them his debts and all rebranded separately from one another to avoid them (you can tell they were all once the same chain because literally they all have the same stereotypical Italian dude mascot on the logo). The one I grew up in (that was bought by family friends who cut dad out of the deal) moved out of its fancy building only a few years after the second floor was added and became a hole-in-the-wall next to the 7/11. The original chef left, and the food quality dipped. My dad left for one of the two Seattle locations that was bought by his current boss, and that place has kept the spirit alive.
It isn't "fine dining" large by any means - it looks like a small, hole-in-the-wall eatery as soon as you walk in - but it's bigger than you would expect, having 2 banquet rooms and 2 primary dining areas. Boss man even set up a game room with free video games and table hockey for the kids (man's got a Playstation in there, he's really trying). My dad has taken to watering the plants, so they suddenly started overgrowing their pots and looking actually respectable.
The only real downside is that people with fragile egos, such as dad, let the "fine dining" atmosphere go to their head and suddenly they act like they're hot shit because they "work for a multi-million dollar dining establishment". Dude, you manage a pizza place that a man living in a $2 mil waterfront property is only just above breaking even on by overworking and criminally underpaying you and the rest of your employees. You make $19/hour without tips. When your income can move us out of this rv and buy a modest home, I'll change my stance. But functioning like fine dining and actually being fine dining are not the same thing. People who work true fine dining can comfortably afford an apartment in Seattle.
A little fun fact that most wine snobs will throw an absolute shit fit if you even mention it. Red wine actually aerates better if you just put it in a blender for a few seconds.
Alicia, you missed watching him attempt to open a bottle with a knife/sword…and killed the waiter…and buried another body…
Hopefully that doesn’t happen a third time…lol😅😅😅
Reminds me of when my mom used to drink those cheap wines that come in a box, lol.
Art is worth exactly as much as people are willing to pay for it.
It depends on the art, most art is worth enough to make the artist a living wage.
Or how much people are willing to launder through it
@@michaelmcdoesntexist8350
Some things are too true to be good.
sometimes i forget alicia is an FGC vet and then she drops a tekken reference in the middle of a wine video
Something interesting to watch that's somewhat related, "The Austrian Wine Poisoning | Down the Rabbit Hole" by Fredrik Knudsen.
Like the guy's videos, and that's one of my favorites.
16:39 even though they add 33 percent more price of the food and wine, they still want us to give them tip
as a persian its kinda sad that we dont have shiraz wine in our own city :C the government banned alcohol
The worst are the middle-class mfers who desperately WANT to look rich and powerful.
But the restaurant owner who'd bring the fam over for parties sometimes; he was always the calmest person in the room; wearing a modest reliable windbreaker jacket; the type of guy who's always got someone to go check on, but never makes a big deal about how busy he actually is.
And then we had one regular who unironically had to have been a Yakuza boss, his younger wife cut his food into bites and everything, some scary shit
for everyone fellow Necron-player : I do NOT feel attacked
I am a Necron player, I am also in favor of talking about kinks ( to each their own...but do not try to sell it to us, IF we say NO)
💖
Stop explaining everything to her in the chat. That's what you are watching the video for! Caramba!
28:50 - It reminded me of all those videos where people opened wines and to prevent spilling put the neck of the bottle in their mouth. Enjoy the wine.
Austria also has several respectable wineries. Even more respectable now, since these were the survivors of the "Anti freeze wine" scandles of the eighties.
Pretty sure making you pay out of pocket for the customers screw ups is actually illegal.
The youtuber "Oversimplified" is a great history youtuber that I would LOVE for you to see
Yes
"am I uncultured?"
no, the lower classes have a culture all their own. **runs key down a poorly parked aston martin** 😂
Just so you know, you skipped Even fancier: Paintings from his other channel Incognito mode. It's part of the series.
Everything in the whole world is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it.
If I've learned anything from this video its that Alicia is a god at customer service
You do realize V-Tubing is just mass customer service, right?

Guilliman is the best Primarch because he has a skill that none of his brothers possess: the ability to properly file his taxes.
Happy new year Alicia. I started watching you late 2023 it was on your first Internet historian video and I haven't looked back since, you are one of the best UA-camrs I have watched and can't wait to see what else you plan to watch in the new year 🎊
Happy New Year Alicia. Congrats again on beating cancer and I hope 2024 continues to go great for you!
When you swirl the glass then you are determining the viscosity (aka legs) or how much sugar is in it. If it looks like syrup then it is going to be a sweet one. If the wine falls like water then it is going to be dry (aka not sweet) and high alcohol content in general.
Huzzah! A fine glass of Alicia Historian to pair with the end of the year! 🎩🍷
I’m actually a brewer, and hearing about that oat citrus beer is getting my brain moving. I might need to experiment on a couple recipes!
I showed this video to my dad and he laughed his ass off.
The last time I went out to eat at a fine dining restaurant it cost me about $180 for a steak and some veggies and a salad. My parents ordered drinks and their bill was nearly $230.
Wine drinking is super easy. First find a type of wine you like. Then give yourself a price range. Say…10-20 bucks. Then go to the store and you look at labels until you find one that you like and buy it. Easy peasy. I found a lot of good bottles that way. The swishing, the special glasses for different types of wine, only drinking a certain winewith fish….Its all bullshit.
36:02 This is the most animated I have seen her V-tuber model.
“The customer is always right when it comes to matters of taste.”
Or something along those lines. Apparently it was never intended for the customer to be “always right”, only when it comes to matters of taste like fashion and the like. It’s a bummer that it’s gotten so twisted…
15:20 But he said 250 to 300 per-cent, not 25 to 33.
Don't crap on the French guy... He has a right to defend his culture😂
I don't think alicia knows the meaning of incel. Much like twitter I guess.
14:07 yo i found this blue berry beer at the store in the local brew section and it was awesome... and now i cant find that shit anywhere and im pissed!
I work in a liquor store and have done several wine tastings, so probably tried about 60-700 different wines this past year, and I've also been practicing homebrewing wine. I overall agree with most of his comments about the best value being about $20-30, though there are some exceptions.
In particular the Sauternes tend to be pricier being 20-30 for a Half sized bottle, but they are one of the best dessert wines I have ever tasted!
Specifically "Chateau Doisy Vedrines Sauternes 2018"
It was the last of a 12 wine tasting we did, and all the rest I thought were varying degrees of average wine, but when I tasted that I actually exclaimed "Holy Shit!! What is this, this is amazing!"
Happy new year! May it be filled with even more great content
43:38 this is what people were referring to when they went to a bar and ordered "slops" (not literally but "slops" was the term fot the bar's runoff bucket so everything spilled on the bar that night ended up in it). You only see it in really old books or really accurate period stories because it fell out of favor pretty much as soon as peasants stopped being a thing.
Oooh, you missed the one about art on his second channel, Incognito Mode
I don't drink, but I do pour sparkling grape juice in a wine glass if I have it. Useful for New Years Eve.
Nah, Sanguinius was definitely the best kisser.
I'm pretty sure Elon went back to number 1 richest man right before the year ended
This video makes me wish that more people would watch Columbo, specifically the episode Any Old Port in a Storm. Great if you love detective stuff, and wine. XD
just to be clear, I was saying that Alicia is better at TEKKEN than me even when drunk and pegging, not that she is better than me for playing TEKKEN, drinking and pegging.
Oh about the Mountain Dew of high society joke? Someone was actually trying to make a Mountain Dew wine and posted it here on UA-cam.
Me personally i believe sanguinius would be the best kisser.
Either him or fulgrim
I can't listen to Internet Historian anymore without hearing "Gary Loves you" at the end of each section of Dialogue. Thanks Wendigoon
"It comes out of my tip money"
When are people going to abandom tip culture?
It is harmful to the employees beyond anything else i can think of.
When employees realize that the customers aren't the reason they ain't getting paid well, which probably won't be for a long while over on this side of the globe since lot of the people I see vehemently defend tip culture are the ones getting screwed by it. Like, bitch we ain't the reason you're getting underpaid, take that up to your employer.
Happy New Year! It’s been great finding your content! 🎆
"Ah yes, we keep the wine next to The catacombs. The ethereal cries of a thousand beheaded jacobins and counter-revulotionarys really brings out the flavor, see."
she skipped the murder at the end :(
I worked food service for 3 years and went from respecting everybody to learning the customer is not always right. It’s the own damn fault most of the time
"How much is art worth?"
"Zero Dollars."
Actually, there is some truth to this. The Mona Lisa is nothing more than a canvas with oil paint on it. But, it's insured for $1 billion.
The markups are still crazy im payed like shit in a bar the amount we take in and the amount we take out is astoniching ive worked in bars and restaurants there absolutely no excuses for some of the markups especialy for sodas and wine cus its bought in bulk at half market price and sold and double market price its a steal
42:57 now that alone deserves some mad respect
My parents are part of a wine club at local winery, now that there retired they love it so much
Kids play with Hot Wheels sets
Men play with Warhammer
Grandpas play with train sets
Toys change but boys are just boys
Man 40k is my generation old train man? Was not ready to be exposed like that. I dont even like trains.
to all the USA peeps that paying out of pocket shit here is illegal, do not let the restaurant fuck you over on tips for something the customers do. no clue how that shit is allowed in canada.
The servers are held liable for excessive dammage. Its like your employer holding you liable for destruction of product.
This is neither here nor there, but when discussing what he would do after the conclusion of the Great Crusade, Ahzek Ahriman the Thousand Sons Space Marine Legion said he would retire from war and take up winemaking as a profession, and he had already taken to growing grapes and making wine as a hobby in his spare time.
"How much is THAT worth? How much is ART worth?"
I see cooking as an art form, and some people LOVE McDonalds. So...
Pith is the white part of the citrus skin, it is bitter and sticky and will dry hard as a rock (they actually make helmets out of the stuff)

My dad worked for years in wine. I never got a taste for alcohol myself.
9:49, ‘Zero, we do not appreciate your passions’
9:43 some exposure and a solid handshake
Happy new year Alicia 🎉 I'm happy I subbed ❤❤
I think lemon pith is the white part of the peel. But it's been a long ass time since I studied cooking.
You skip one video of this saga from the Incognito Mode channel tho~
Yay...a historical video about how terrible grape flavored piss is...I'm gonna take a nap
Am I the only one eating 100% dark chocolate as he was talking about the difference between wine grapes and normal grapes
All i know about wine is I like drinking it 😂
My parents drink everything they open. Lol😂
So yeah, the pith tends to be pretty bitter and it has ruined more of my Brazilian lemonades than I can count. Just scoop out the fruit and grate off the zest and you'll thank... everyone who helped me learn this info later! And maybe grate the zest off first so you don't end up trying to grate some floppy lemon/lime/orange skins in such awkward manners... or do it your way, it's your drink or something. Who am I to get in the way of how you work your kitchen.
Wine reaction at the new year ?? with champagne in my hand ?? heck yeah :D
And it all comes back around to Warhammer
Lets get fancy together in 2024
