Even though I rarely drink wine, it’s great to see André back on the channel. His videos are some of the most entertaining and informative that BA has produced. More, please.

Andre is the best part of Bon Appetit right now. I legit just want to hang out with this dude. I feel like brad would make me go to a fish concert but Andre is a chill bro.

I was told to cut the foil like you said but no one knew why we cut it so low. I didn’t know the history behind leaded foil and now we keep that tradition. Awesome!

I remember someone told me that Russian vodka used to come with a pry off cap because you never opened a bottle you were not going to finish. That is how I treat wine.

Andre needs his own wine channel. He could introduce people into wine. Start by reviewing stuff you see in grocery stores, wine subscription services etc.

Great video, Andre! I love your energy and I think you’ll appreciate the rest of the story :-). I’m the proud daughter of the inventor of The Durand®, Mark Taylor (which he had patented in his 80’s, by the way!) - and I suspect you’ll appreciate knowing that it was actually named for his dear friend and mentor, Jean-Pierre “Yves” Durand, a world-renowned master sommelier. Yves would lead rousing cheers in French at wine tastings, where his incredible knowledge of wine was only exceeded by his joie de vivre!

This is absolutely my favorite series. Andre is such an effective teacher. Very clear, easy to absorb, casual teaching and I can see he really enjoys what he does. Thank you!

Love watching these videos with Andre, he sure knows his stuff but he doesn’t flaunt his knowledge and has this really cool, down to earth vibe !

Learned how to *correctly* use a wine key today.... thanks Andre! More more more of this man please! :)

The coravin was a game changer for me. I felt guilty opening a bottle before i got one, and never really drank wine beforehand knowing i only had a glass every few nights and it’d noticeably degrade in quality. Both my enjoyment of wine and the wines i got have improved since.

Love Andre. Give him his own show already!!!

I am here for André Hueston Mack all day, every day

Coravins are great! Worked at a wine bar where my coworkers were always looking for excuses to coravin something so we could try lol.

I could listen to you all day. I rarely drink, if I do it is wine and in a restaurant, so none of this effects me but I love to listen to you explain it

Just wanted to say that André Mack is an expert and he knew that bottle might explode when he sabered it. This most commonly happens when you leave the bottle out and don't super chill it before sabering. I usually don't remove the cage when sabering, but everyone has their own style. Respect!

I’m an avid whiskey drinker and collector and I love watching André talk about wine. His knowledge and love for it makes me want to explore the world of fine wines.

The gf and I met this guy at a little spot in Brooklyn. Not sure if he owns the shop or no, but it sure felt like it; he chatted for a hot second and then recommended a really good wine. Date night was a success lol. Really cool person.

That last tool is pretty cool!

I remember one time where my grandfather was opening a bottle of champagne for some celebration, he was having a hard time with the cork and we asked him if he needed any help he said no and after a moment of struggling pulls the bottle back to look directly at the cork, at which point the cork decides now is a good time to release itself. Most spectacular Black Eye I ever saw and the most embarrassed I think I ever saw my grandfather.

Good to know there are ways to preserve wine, my go to has just been drinking the whole bottle (I’m 22 so very new to this)

Loved this! He's so interesting and approachable and talented. I learned a lot--thank you!

So casual and yet so informative, great content.

Andre is the man! Just discovered his vids and they’re pretty useful for a middle aged guy who is finally getting interested in wine. Thanks for posting.

Andre videos make me happy. More Andre videos!!!

I love watching André! I am happy Bon Appétit listened to us!

I love wine and I love to learn. Andre covers all those bases and I always look forward to watching his videos. 😊

First time watching, fantastic! Captain daddy podcast Spotify

André is the goat!!

That Coravin is definitely a must buy and really cool tool to have if I am going to start a hobby of buying wine when I grow older and more richer, really.

Omg that's what my candleholder is?? I always knew it had a function outside of illumination but I never expected that it was for wine. Wow very cool

ANDRE! YES! BACK WITH ANOTHER BANGER! LOVE THESE EDUCATIONAL VIDEOS MORE THAN ANYTHING.

Exactly how I imagine "sabering" will go on most peoples nice expensive special occasion bottle. Not to mention the looks you'll get telling people you're into sabering

Slowly but surely Andre Mack is turning into one of my favorite people on KZread. Thumbs up!

Love all of André’s vids!! Always so fun and educational!! Definitely want to add a couple of these tools to my collection!

I may or may not have gotten away with not spitting wine out when I took a college level wine class by convincing my class that throat feel was an important part of the tasting process. I still stand by this

1ST TIME WATCHING HIS VIDEOS, I'M NOW A FAN. A GREAT EPISODE, ANYTIME I CAN LEARN SOMETHING IT'S NOT A WASTE OF TIME, ANDRE WELL DONE. NO HIDDEN AGENDA JUST A SHARING OF KNOWLEDGE. KEEP DOING YOU, BROTHER.

Wow I did not know Andre was the sommelier at the French Laundry, huge respect. Not that I wasn't impressed by his well of knowledge in wine and his enthusiasm already.

I've done sabering twice with a real sword, it's really fun. I was told that as well as the bottle being cold, you want to run the blade down the barely visible seam where to two halves of the bottle are fused together, where that seam meets the lip is where most of the stress gets concentrated and you get a nice clean break right below the lip.

I have no wine “knowledge” whatsoever and I’m truly not much of a fan. That said, CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF HIS VIDEOS. Whenever you see someone who’s this good at their craft, its great to watch.

I look forward to these so much! I learn a lot and they are truly enjoyable!

Andre is like a good animation - the kids (wine beginners) and the adults (wine pros) will both enjoy the cartoon, and for enthusiastic amateurs like me he is just solid gold. If he doesn't get his own Netflix show soon the there is officially no justice in the world.

He is the only reason I am subscribed to this channel

I remember seeing a Coravin for the first time several years when a supplier brought one in. Gamechanger.

The durand can be used to remove a cork without damaging it such that it can be recorked with a proper seal, provided you don't use the screw combination.

DAMNIT. I'VE WORKED IN A FEW FINE DINING RESTAURANTS AND A DURAND WAS NEVER MENTIONED FOR OUR OLDER BOTTLES OF WINE. THANK GOD I'VE NEVER MADE A FOOL OF MYSELF OPENING THEM.

Just found you and am loving all that I am learning. Not new to wine, but there is always room for more knowledge! Thanks for sharing your knowledge in the world of wine!

Great video André !

This series is delightful!!!

I love him! I’ve learned so much by watching him! 🙌🙌

The fact a sommelier not only endorses saber-ing, but starts the video off and has a waterproof transport box for his kit to do it is incredible! I approve!

The first cool sommelier on KZread. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🔥🍷

Excellent video! Thank you!!

Very kool to hear ya talk about this profession. Super interesting and fun. Great video my mannnn

I really want to see André rate wine “tools” that people use that are either awesome or completely useless or frustrating to use. If that already exists, please let me know.

I was working for Total Wine when the Coravin first hit the market and it really was a game changer for high-end consumers. My store had extremely wealthy clientele that would come in once or twice a year or so to stock their cellars, pretty much only dealing with myself or my manager directly literally dropping well more than my annual gross at a time, sometimes even 3 or 4x my annual, and when the Coravin hit pretty much all our high end clients each got at least one and began coming in much more often to see what was new that they could use it on to see where things were at for themselves and then commit to larger quantities later.

Okay but can we talk about the bottles in the background? Dirty and Rowdy, Bow & Arrow, looks like some Swick and Jolie Laide. And then Fernet on the left? Not only does Andre like good wine other than his own, but great beverages all around.

What about the ultramarine???

Today Sabrage only works well on Champenoise bottles due to glass in other bottles being generally thinner and not suffering the typical stresses produced by the disgorge freezing.

A good wine friend went to portugal and got into port. Hooked. He brought back some port tongs. Check that out some time. Super cool and fun to do. Works like a charm

Some non-alcoholic wines and drinks next. An explain how to taste a wine, like what are we looking for.
