I'm falling down the Sommelier Andre Hueston Mack rabbit hole in a big way, and I am here for it. His energy and passion is evident and captivating, makes me genuinely intrigued as to what his opinions and observations are. Gonna definitely watch more of his content.
@@LemurJackson It’s a “blackberry” better known as Blackcurrant. It’s very intense and has flavor that’s difficult to describe. Either way, it’s an incredibly common fruit referenced by Somms and wine enthusiasts to describe a specific nose and taste typically found in red wines.
I really like the way he describes the specific tastes like “nail polish remover, pencil shavings, irony like biting the inside of my lip” cause it’s something I can look out for in wine when I’m tasting and can pinpoint it better
Yes please! One of the things I miss the most about living in the Bay area is $6 dinners comprised of Two-Buck Chuck and a wedge of brie with crackers. :)
check out a guy called wineking. He's Korean (I believe), but most of his videos are in English, he lives in LA, does a lot of these kinds of videos with cheaper wines and has a Master of Wine (seriously, it is what it says it is, only a couple hundred are certified in the world) critiquing like 6 dollar bottles of wine.
Tried the 3 by Wade Chenin Blanc based on your description here. First time trying a chenin blanc and it was lovely! Thanks for making these videos and sharing accessible wines!
Hey just a question bc this prices looks quite expensive, is wine more expensive in the USA than in Europe ? I mean here you can really find good wines for 10€
@Robert Arnold no lmao, those are aged wines, an expensive new wine wouldn't go over 100 bucks, you can find amazing wine around the 20-50 bucks range. when you start to go over 100 that's expensive wine but also aged, and how old it is determines how expensive it's gonna get.
@Robert Arnold that could be the sulfites in wine that’s making your head and knees hurt. Organic or natural wines contain less of them. I would try that
Love the way he explains the wines so meticulously. As a wine enthusiast I love it when you can find a good bottle of wine and you don’t have to pay extravagant amount of money. Keep the vids comin!
Love Andre's videos! Subscribing to Bon Appetit just for him. Wish I could take a day-long class/tasting with him leading the group! His knowledge, personality and non-pretentious attitude...TOP NOTCH!
Jennie, have you ever been at a wine tasting? A real one in real life? This is youtube and just celebrity wines. A wine tasting is not about celebrities, it is about wine.
As someone who never liked wine and was more of a whiskey drinker, after coming around and getting more into wine a few years back I definitely was missing out. The idea behind pairing with specific foods became mind blowing to me once I really started to comprehend it and start having those proper combinations. I'm no chef by any means but I do consider myself a great cook and I now believe knowing what wines (and beers/whiskeys) go with what you're cooking can be extremely meaningful. Love these videos
I’d love to see him sample various wines based solely on their labels. Because we all get suckered into buying wine for a cool label. 🤷🏻♀️ it would be cool to know which wines are good AND have a cool label!
On a previous episode he covered the label, but I think it was more what to look for/what is a red flag if it's missing. I fully second this idea tho, given that I usually try new wines by label followed by taste description (if the label has any.)
All that glitters is not gold. He is trying to teach us … look at the wine growing region, look at the variety of grape. Does it have a vintage on the bottle or none of the above. Drink and find what you like ….. 😊🍷
Really enjoying the Andre Mack videos. Yes please make this a series. I was kind of excited that I actually had one of these in my cellar Mary J Blige Sun Goddess. I thought it was quite good - my first try at 'orange' wine - and was quite relieved he liked it too!
*smells wine: I can smell wasabi, a little hint of treasure chest, a bit of granny smith apples and liquid nitrogen. Overall what you’d expect for this wine.
One, it's nice that, in trying to keep wine accessible, he isn't being pretentious about the wines and isn't calling them (well most of them) bad wines. Most of the ones he wasn't impressed by he pretty much says they are overpriced for what they really are. That said, I honestly expected most of these to be overpriced garbage. Without a doubt, a few were but most were not. Kind of wish I could get some of the better ones where I live but most I cannot.
I'm always amazed by people who can taste so many details in anything. Like, i'm quite good with hearing things, i can pick out each individual instrument in a song, i hear subtle things most people don't. But to be able to do that with taste and smell! It blows my mind! Give this guy a series!
First thing I checked for... bummer. Some people more involved in the winemaking production would've been preferable. Still love Andre's videos though.
Wow... YOU'RE so good at explaining something as complex as wine tasting with such ease and specificity that I was drawn to keep watching till the end...
I'm watching this and having a glass of orange Pinot Gris. The Italian version tasted here made me look up the differences, I think André's enthusiasm is just contagious. :)
I love this guy, I could listen all day. With celebrity wines it would be interesting to know which celebrities put their name on like perfumes and which were really into the decision making and quality.
They dont.....jay z only owns a small percentage and it is actually made by the old producer. Miraval is actually made by the Perin Family who actually owns it
I am so happy I recently upgraded to UA-cam premium so I can shut my screen off and listen to this man talk about wines as I fall asleep. The “had to be there” wit when talking about Fergie made me an instant fan. Keep his videos coming please :)
Videos a joke without his wine, dude is more involved in the production than anyone of wines shown by a long shot. So a guy that is actually making wine and famous is not on a video about famous people and wine
I don't think he picked out the wine hes going to try. Because if he knew about all the wine before hand ,it wouldn't be an authentic true reaction of actually trying the wine. There are a team behind him like producers,creators, etc. I'm sure they picked out the wine that they think he should try.
Michigan may not be known for great wine, but the Lake Michigan Shore appellation is producing some fantastic wines. With a small climate more similar to France, it's great for wines higher in acid. I would highly suggest you check it out, we may surprise you!!
@@fld1374 Distribution outside of Michigan is pretty small. Michigan By the Bottle is a good store that sells a wide variety of Michigan wines. But I would recommend going directly to the wineries and do tastings. Some of my favorites are Domaine Berrien Cellars, Dablon, and Lemon Creek Winery. Domaine Berrien specializes in dry reds and focuses on the French style, they were the first to plant Rhone varietal vines in Michigan (Syrah, Viognier, Marsanne, Roussanne)
The moment he said michigan wines arent good i rioted hahaha. The Old Mission peninsula north of Traverse City has some great wines (and cider), Can attest to that personally :)
As a level 2 Som…Michigan wines are good for people that like under $8 bottles of wine and have no access to real wines. Because paying more than $10 for a bottle of Michigan wine, as my instructor says makes you a non educated wine person and you’ll never pass his class.
I am actually suprised that most of these are good. I would have expected them to just put their name on some cheap swill at a heavy markup, like beats headphones or souljaboy's "game consoles".
absolutely fantastic commentary on all the wines, please can we have Andre Mack on this channel in larger doses!! the 20 minutes flew by and I am looking for more content with Andre Mack! I give this video three firework emoji and a smiley face with stars emoji!
I’m not huge into wine, but my wife is. So I’d like to learn more. Maybe learn together. He knows so much about wine I can’t stop watching lol. The amount of flavors and scents he knows is fn incredible and amazing. So impressive
Maison no. 9 was given the sword to represent the 9 of Sword card in a tarot deck. The 9 of swords is representative of fear and anxiety that keep you up at night. Debatably the sword is in the downward position, showing that though you are kept awake by these fears, hope is around the corner for you. -die hard posty fan
I expected these wines to be more or less under performers. However I’m excited to see that it feels a majority of these wines were at average and above average which is pretty cool! Who knew the best one out of the group would be a a wine collabed with a basketball player
A lot of top-level NBA players are HUGE wine fans, particularly anyone in LeBron's friend circle (CP3, Wade, Carmelo are notable ones). A lot of Spurs players and former Spurs players appreciate good wine too because Gregg Popovich does. The Portland guys are into it, particularly CJ McCollum if I remember right. You'd be surprised.
The way i see it .. bball players are real professionals in the sense that they do put a lot of effort to get the job done throughout their carriers . Like , they're the blue collar part of the celebrity world .. hard workers with lots of money who know to appreciate the good things in life and don't care too much about creating extravagant personas ( such as trying to place their names on a wine just for the sake of it ) . Same goes for ( lyrical/old school/bluesy ? ) rappers who depend on creativity and experimentation/boldness to stay on top of their game . I'm not surprised their wines were genuine in the least
I love listening to this guy, I wish I lived in north america and I could try his recomendations. I live in brazil, so we mostly drink wines from chile and argentina.
This was entertaining on so many levels. This is the sort of dude I would invite to my friends parties just so I could get his impression on what is being served.
I could watch Andre for hoursSsssss. Seriously. Have him taste everything. Bring him to the PNW and I will pay to go see him. Educational and entertaining.
very much depends. if you are in a jury and taste a hundred wines a day yes you will spit it out. but sommeliers also drink the wine while tasting when it is in lower amounts
I'd love to see Andre tasting old aged chinese teas. It's a super uneplored area for most people, but I think with his palate it would make for a really interesting video!
I enjoy watching Andre's episodes. They have really inspired me to start tasting wine more and find the flavor notes in wines and other alcoholic drinks. I also have 2 questions for Andre. 1) Is mead generally classified as a type of wine, or does it have a different classification? 2) Can we get Andre to do an episode all about mead?
I LOVE Bradgelina’s Chateau Miraval Rose’, it’s great that they actually worked closely with the local expert winemakers rather than just slapping their name on a product.
Wow the way u described each wine is literally amazing! I took screenshots of the wines that You basically told me I would like 😂 and went shopping. Me and my friends are all picky 🍷 drinkers and we all have new faves thanks!!!! You have a super power!!!!! 🍾🥂
Keep Andre's videos coming our way. Give him a full-blown series already!
Truthfully the best content to have come out since the fall of The Test Kitchen
You right
I could listen to this man for hours
Exactly.. I litterally am down the rabbit hole of the wine world just becuz his videos.. he explains thing very well and is easy..
Wait what happened to the test kitchen? I heard there was a little drama i didn't realize it was over.
I'm falling down the Sommelier Andre Hueston Mack rabbit hole in a big way, and I am here for it. His energy and passion is evident and captivating, makes me genuinely intrigued as to what his opinions and observations are. Gonna definitely watch more of his content.
This guy is mesmerizing. I don’t drink wine and really don’t know what he’s saying. But he says it so well. And with conviction and expertise.
When he said cassis I was like “hmmm interesting, wonder what that means”
@@LemurJackson It’s a “blackberry” better known as Blackcurrant. It’s very intense and has flavor that’s difficult to describe. Either way, it’s an incredibly common fruit referenced by Somms and wine enthusiasts to describe a specific nose and taste typically found in red wines.
Ha! Same here man.
Jason that’s exactly why I am here.
mesmerizing is exactly the right word omg
I really like the way he describes the specific tastes like “nail polish remover, pencil shavings, irony like biting the inside of my lip” cause it’s something I can look out for in wine when I’m tasting and can pinpoint it better
The one thing BA has done supremely well with post debacle. Someone give this dude an entire show.
This is an entire show isnt it?
They've done more than one thing well to be honest, I like most of the new hosts.
he's the only person i've watched since then
So true
@@triglyceride1160 Yea, what happend?
I love this guy. He is Incredibly knowledgeable, fair, and easy to follow
We need a Trader Joe’s wine episode
Yes please!
One of the things I miss the most about living in the Bay area is $6 dinners comprised of Two-Buck Chuck and a wedge of brie with crackers. :)
Or Costco!!
check out a guy called wineking. He's Korean (I believe), but most of his videos are in English, he lives in LA, does a lot of these kinds of videos with cheaper wines and has a Master of Wine (seriously, it is what it says it is, only a couple hundred are certified in the world) critiquing like 6 dollar bottles of wine.
Yes please
Yessssss and with Andre Mack please and thank you.
Tried the 3 by Wade Chenin Blanc based on your description here. First time trying a chenin blanc and it was lovely! Thanks for making these videos and sharing accessible wines!
He breaks this down so easy. I want him to make a beginners wine series. Like best red/white wines under $25.
he did! look up his other videos on this channel
Agreed
Hey just a question bc this prices looks quite expensive, is wine more expensive in the USA than in Europe ?
I mean here you can really find good wines for 10€
@Robert Arnold no lmao, those are aged wines, an expensive new wine wouldn't go over 100 bucks, you can find amazing wine around the 20-50 bucks range. when you start to go over 100 that's expensive wine but also aged, and how old it is determines how expensive it's gonna get.

I'm not even into wine, but there is just something to watching someone who is so great at what they do
I agree wholeheartedly
same here
If he isn’t he’s a great bullshitter. Which is also kind of an art form so yeah haha
If you are not into wine how would you know he is great at what he does?
Perhaps you mean that you love watching someone doing something they love.
I really respect Andre's wine tasting reviews and would like to see more of them.
This man has so much boss energy but still so humble and wise in his approach to quality wine no matter the price tag!
He mispronunced the first wine and really isn’t that compelling at all.
@@DavidRamseyIII meh, it's pretty compelling to me.
But yes, really weird that a sommelier would mispronounce Brignac.
@@DavidRamseyIII But he did not mistasted lol . thats what that matters.
Love Andre's videos! Subscribing to Bon Appetit just for him. Wish I could take a day-long class/tasting with him leading the group! His knowledge, personality and non-pretentious attitude...TOP NOTCH!
Andre is the only sommelier that I’d actually like to drink with… love his videos
Most of the Somms I know are cool like that.
@@sypialnia_studio same
have you met a lot of sommeliers?
Jennie, have you ever been at a wine tasting? A real one in real life?
This is youtube and just celebrity wines.
A wine tasting is not about celebrities, it is about wine.
Tell me you have never met a sommelier without telling me you have met a sommelier.
This a dude i would want as a friend, learning new things, trying new things, not condescending…just seems like a fun dude to be around
He’s SO knowledgeable it’s so entertaining to hear him
First encounter and I adore him and his knowledge of wines. Need more videos of him and his opinions on wine, maybe with food, for parties, etc.
I love listening to this guy. Could listen to him talk about anything
He narrates his own Audio book, 99 Bottles detailing his life and experiences, fun and informative well worth checking it out :)
As someone who never liked wine and was more of a whiskey drinker, after coming around and getting more into wine a few years back I definitely was missing out.

No, we don't
Please give André his own show. Learning so much. Great way to be introduced to new wines.
I've got my list of new wines to get.
I could watch André talk about wine all the time. He’s busy, but I would love a weekly tv show discussing wine.
I dont know sh* about wine but I can watch this guy all day. It‘s like therapy for my brain.
I could literally listen to Andre talk about wine for literally all my life. Please keep this up :)
This guy is great. Love his swagger and his way of explaining complex concepts in an accessible way.

Little hint of treasure chest 🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Video 3 in my Andre Mack binge! This was a real fun one comparing image/personality of celeb to their wine. Oh oh Michigan wine!

Give this guy a series!
Maynard's wine. A missed opportunity.
Maynard certainly is an expert on whines.
First thing I checked for... bummer. Some people more involved in the winemaking production would've been preferable. Still love Andre's videos though.
+1 to this Caduceus/Merkin wines
I know, right? And he actually is involved in the farming part of it AND making the wine itself.
Searching for a Maynard comment! Of all the celebrities and he isn't on this list.
Wow... YOU'RE so good at explaining something as complex as wine tasting with such ease and specificity that I was drawn to keep watching till the end...
Andre is my favorite person on this channel... Get him a full series please
Great presence and eloquent, just like some of the wines reviewed. Thank you Andre.
i have no idea what this man is talking about but i love it
I'm watching this and having a glass of orange Pinot Gris. The Italian version tasted here made me look up the differences, I think André's enthusiasm is just contagious. :)
I love this guy, I could listen all day. With celebrity wines it would be interesting to know which celebrities put their name on like perfumes and which were really into the decision making and quality.
None
I felt the same professional and easy going.
This guy was born for this! Great job
I didn't realize all these celebs made wine! This was super entertaining and interesting learning about sommelier stuff. Thanks Andre!
.LIP
They dont.....jay z only owns a small percentage and it is actually made by the old producer. Miraval is actually made by the Perin Family who actually owns it
Pls give Andre a stand camera next time holy heck the shakes.
Andre was testing wines, the camera man was testing coke 😂
I think the shake was added in post…seems like After Effects Wiggle to me.
The point of the shaking camera is to mimic you being there.
Sommelier's always blow my mind. Their breadth of wine knowledge always amazes me.
I am so happy I recently upgraded to UA-cam premium so I can shut my screen off and listen to this man talk about wines as I fall asleep. The “had to be there” wit when talking about Fergie made me an instant fan. Keep his videos coming please :)
Was really hoping for a review of one of Maynard's Caduceus wines... Hope to see another!
That is a good one I'm curious too
I love his wines I was also hoping to see it here
He reviewed it in an episode 2 months ago
Loved this video! Would like to see a tequila enthusiast try celebrity tequilas (with all the hype these days)
This is the exact video I was looking for. I’ve been wanting a good review of Post’s wine and this was exactly that! Thanks Andre!
I don't even drink wine and I have been a binge of this guys videos. He needs his own series!!
This deserves SO many more views!! Love his honesty and justifications.
He just comes across as an authentic, cool af dude💯def not a wine snob and it shows 🍷
You should have done "Caduceus" by James Maynard Keenan, lead singer of Tool. He's a serious wine maker.
I know right, that was the one I expected to be on here when I saw the title and they didn't even do it.
I clicked the video expecting to see Maynard's wine. Tool just isn't mainstream enough I guess.
Right was hoping too
Videos a joke without his wine, dude is more involved in the production than anyone of wines shown by a long shot. So a guy that is actually making wine and famous is not on a video about famous people and wine
I don't think he picked out the wine hes going to try. Because if he knew about all the wine before hand ,it wouldn't be an authentic true reaction of actually trying the wine. There are a team behind him like producers,creators, etc. I'm sure they picked out the wine that they think he should try.
Andre is amazing, but the fact that the editor has found such a distinct style for Andre’s videos needs to be recognized.
Make this a series! Absolutely love it.
I really wanna try the Mary J Blige.. also this guy is amazing, I'm bingeing all his vids right now!
Michigan may not be known for great wine, but the Lake Michigan Shore appellation is producing some fantastic wines. With a small climate more similar to France, it's great for wines higher in acid. I would highly suggest you check it out, we may surprise you!!

Always willing to take time out of my day to listen to Andre. Thank you for your thoughts.
I am actually suprised that most of these are good. I would have expected them to just put their name on some cheap swill at a heavy markup, like beats headphones or souljaboy's "game consoles".
I've tried a few, and they are trash. Post malones tastes like water down wine.
Yeah this dood is just afraid to trash wine on camera, hes being nice.. but
Hey, I love my Beats - best lightning plug in-ear headphones I’ve found
That's cause they hire wine people or wine producers come to them for their names only!!
soulja boy game console is not a company. its just drop shipping. has nothing to do with beats by dre or anything else.

Went off BA videos a while back, but love these videos - keep Andre Mack videos coming!!!
This guy is amazing. I would watch a show just with him reviewing wine
Yassss Andre's back!!!!!🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
would love to see him review a flight of South African wines
What's up with those?
How did Maynard no make this list???! He really makes the wines himself now just have his name on it! Definitely need him over all those people!
He’s amazing, this is so entertaining! He’s charming and his subtle energy makes me adore seeing his opinion on alcohol ill never drink
I could watch Andre for hoursSsssss. Seriously. Have him taste everything. Bring him to the PNW and I will pay to go see him. Educational and entertaining.
Didn’t think I would be watching BA again. This man deserves his flowers and GOOD PAY
Enlightening and entertaining, big thanks!
Knowing Sommeliers don’t actually drink the wine, they just take a sip, thoroughly examine it and spit it out makes this video hit a lot differently
very much depends. if you are in a jury and taste a hundred wines a day yes you will spit it out. but sommeliers also drink the wine while tasting when it is in lower amounts
He said it’s like old Fergie and not national anthem fergie 😂😂😂 who is this dude and why do I love him
Love him, he has great presentation and palette.
I'd be curious about Maynard James Keenan's wines (frontman of Tool) as he owns and to some degree manages his own vineyard.
You should try E40's cuz he is actually involved in the whole process he a real drinker!
I just knew his would be in the list! Maybe next time.
I just love how knowledgeable he is!!! I definitely wanna see him in more videos!!
I'd love to see Andre tasting old aged chinese teas. It's a super uneplored area for most people, but I think with his palate it would make for a really interesting video!
This is the best thing I’ve seen on YT in a while. I was a fan before, I’m an even bigger fan now.
Very nicely done keep up the great expert opinions!
As a kid who doesn't drink, I still watches every wine videos of him
I’d love to see Andre discuss natural wines… I keep seeing it grow in popularity but not quite sure of the value at the moment.
I enjoy watching Andre's episodes. They have really inspired me to start tasting wine more and find the flavor notes in wines and other alcoholic drinks. I also have 2 questions for Andre.
1) Is mead generally classified as a type of wine, or does it have a different classification?
2) Can we get Andre to do an episode all about mead?
I LOVE Bradgelina’s Chateau Miraval Rose’, it’s great that they actually worked closely with the local expert winemakers rather than just slapping their name on a product.
Wow the way u described each wine is literally amazing! I took screenshots of the wines that You basically told me I would like 😂 and went shopping. Me and my friends are all picky 🍷 drinkers and we all have new faves thanks!!!! You have a super power!!!!! 🍾🥂
