It’s called Bon appetite you bonehead…. And the video won’t reach a million views so going solo ain’t in his best interest

I would love for him to go through the different types of sparkling wine (Champagne, Prosecco, Cava etc) and explain their similarities and differences because a lot of people mistake champagne being the best just because of its name, when there are loads of amazing sparkling wines that rival champagne but cannot be called it as they are not made within the Champagne region.

He did just happen to choose one of the highest snob value, double barrelled Hemel en Aarde wine farms. The wine is, quite frankly delicious and well worth a trip in that direction. Don't forget Spookfontein!

i could listen to andre talk about wine for hours. he talks so passionately about it in a way that makes it accessible and easy to understand 😄 big slay

You chose a great region for Pinot Noir in Australia, however you need to go more south to Tasmania. The colder climate produces some truly outstanding pinots and the basalt / dolerite rocks high iron content allow for deeper colours where age doesn't necessarily match it's colour / hue.

It’s a bit of a misnomer that just because tassie is more southerly it’s cooler, ie Central Otago would always market itself as one of the southernmost wine regions which makes you think cool, where the Martinborough vineyards on the North island are consistently cooler - elevation, mountain ranges, ocean currents & winds have a lot to do with it. Check out photos of NSW’s Orange region’s vineyards in autumn & winter - not uncommon to see a blanket of snow over the vines

Having Andre teach me about wine has really helped me please continue to do episodes of wine!

Had me at "drunk uncle pour." Love this series. Love Andre. Got gifted his book "99 Bottles" for Christmas. Great read.

Great explanation on Pinot Noir around the world, loved it! One point about colour... we grow Pinot Noir on our property in Marlborough, New Zealand, and regardless of the differing seasons and sunshine hours, we always harvest the grapes fully purple - no green at all. In fact, during harvest we are careful to avoid any small green bunches (or second set) as they do not have the required sugar content to make a drinkable wine and can add an unpleasant 'green' flavour character to the end result. However, sometimes our wine is deep and dark and sometimes it is very light in colour - it all depends how much water the plants received during and leading up to harvest. The more water, the bigger the grapes and the less colour the wine will have, as the skin to juice ratio is less. A long dry summer and lots of wind will produce small berries with thick skins and a very high skin to juice ratio - and these will result in a dark coloured wine, even though the grapes are produced off exactly the same block. One year we produced bunches so big the resulting 'red wine' was like a dark rosé! Our friend who's a winemaker saw the fruit and asked what the hell it was because it was "too big to be Pinot Noir!" 😂 Our wee vineyard is far up the valley and received a lot more rain that year than the lower blocks.

I would LOVE to see a video about him describing the different types of popular wines and what they pair with. Like, what's the difference between a Cabernet Sauvignon and a Cabernet Franc, or what's a Merlot, a Pinot, etc. What should I eat with these wines, what's a good wine to just drink by itself? I think that would be great for beginners to get started

I'm not even into wine but I can easily listen to this guy drop knowledge. He demonstrates a real passion for his interest. I'm glad our NZ wine came up strong too.

As an Australian I have to say after years of heavy wines (cab savs etc) I've become less adventurous and settled on pinot noir as my preferred red. It's easy to drink and hard to get a bad choice.

André is the best - can't get enough!

Andre makes wine so fun

That Kiwi wine sounds like my type of wine. Delightfully earthy and complex. Hope I can find one here.

I would watch this man everyday

Love this series, Andre makes it so fluid and easy to understand that I could just watch this forever.

You have taught me so much about wine! This is a wonderful series, can't wait for the next one!!

Thank you for highlighting Central Otago, which, in my biased patriotic opinion, produces the best Pinot Noir on earth. I wouldn't mind that being kept a secret, but for the fact it's so hard to find here in the US.

There are lots of examples of Australian shiraz and cabernet that are lovely, soft and complex. Just have to know what to look for. As for pinot just leave Aussie pinot alone, never review it. You don't need to know about it.

I have a severe anxiety disorder yet André’s approach and personality and the content just calms my mind and I feel like I can escape. These are my comfort videos.

I would love a whole video explaining more about why certain places have great wine and some can’t grow wine grapes at all.

I really like this series with Andre. Like it’s great to have a standard (in this case the varietal-Pinot noir) and the variables is different regions. This a great set up!

Really appreciate Andre's down to earth view and interpretation of how the wines taste. I've always wanted to learn more, and he really helps me understand so much. Thank you for finding him and allowing him to share his knowledge. Thank you Andre' for opening new eyes to what you love and sharing that love.

That was fantastic! Pinot Noir has so many nuances. This was the most informative video I’ve seen.

That Germany section was the nicest put down ive ever heard

Great video. I’d love to see this as a series with other varieties of wine

Excellent idea. Andre always delivers the best content when it comes to wine :)

Personally I love an Oregon Pinot Noir. I think it has the best mix of old world and new world styles. They’re tart, earthy, and kinda weird. I love them. Burgundy is great too as are German Pinots, but Oregon has my heart.

Thank you so much for this video. Super helpful and well-presented. Your time and effort is most appreciated!

You're right about the thyme in Central Otago pinots. Thyme grows wild everywhere and I swear it flavours the soil!

Andre’s tastings have been helping me study for my Somm 1 and WSET 2 courses. Bravo sir

Never disappoints 😊 I always enjoy his educational approach to wine 🍷

Great watch as always. Quick one as an avid South African Pinot Noir drinker - Hamilton Russell is great, but definitely not the best out of the Hemel en Aarde Valley. Try Storm Pinot Noir. Also, HR retails for around $30 per bottle.

Excellent as always. We want more Andre Wine Videos.

Don't about the other parts of the world, but in South Africa we generally serve our pilot noir like white wines, chilled in an ice bucket.

We need these more often! and bring back more through the grape vine

I love funky, earthy, mushroomy Pinot Noir!

Thank you for explaining wine in understandable terms I like how you give an insight into interpreting a wine

Great educational session. Really enjoyed

Go André!!! Keep the videos coming, he's so great. Cheers! 🍷

Refreshing . I like that you give each wine its due. They're all different expressions of the cultivar and they each have their appeal. Too often, people have a rigid measure of what "good" is (Burgundy every time!). Really articulate and knowledgable.
