I am from Sri Lanka and have watched close to 100 videos on KZread trying to lean about wine and all the technical jargon. But none of those videos came to at least 40% near this. This is the best beginners wine guide that I have ever come across. Great job and thank you so much for sharing.

Agreed this is a fantastic video is you work in a wine bar and want to learn how to sell wine to people of any background or just want to figure out how to buy wine for your taste

this video is extremely helpful. I love the way its laid out. very organized.

I really appreciated this break down of wines

Got more from this beginners tutorial than others...nice bonus at the end, ordered from them right away! Practically one of each red varietal to try out. Figured it’s time I did something nice for myself for a change LOL So I appreciate this video!

the only introductory guide to wine worth watching on KZread. Very good lecture, thanks :)

Thank you for making this info available online! Really helpful for a wine novice like me!

Just a little note. Bordeaux allows 6 grapes to be grown instead of 5 with Carmenere as the main grape varietal. However due to the Phylloxera (1869-1880) wiping out most of the vinyards, winemakers decided not to plant the Carmenere because it's extremely difficult and it's a late riper than the other grapes, prone to disease, fragile etc.. They chose to the plant Cab Sauvaignon, Cab Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot instead. Malbec is mainly grown in Cahor.

I really enjoyed watching this video, I am a general manager in a fine dining restaurant and is always interested in learning more about wine. Your presentation was very helpful and I was able to understand old world wines a little better. Thank you

INVALUABLE info, thank you!

I leaned so much from this. Thank you so much

Thanks for posting this very informative and organised video, I don’t know if I’m getting into wine, but sure appreciated the incredible culture behind it.

Can’t wait to show off my new wine knowledge. Thank you

If you get anything out of this lecture, he recommends Cameron Hughes and I would urge anyone new to wine to try them. I chose a wide variety and every last one was very good quality! I even found out I can like white wine after all, although previously didn’t care for anything I had tried. Some of their red ones are soooo gooood...practically pennies on the dollar

I been working in bars for a while, but didn't know much about wines until now. Thank you for the great video ! Cheers

Thanks. I’m working at the LCBO and am taking a viticulture course. Your presentation was useful. Does you wife now like Italian red wine?

Thanks so much for your work

Thank you, this is very informative, I've learnt a lot. I'll have to watch it again to memorize everything better. And, I need a Coravin now! 🤔👍🏼

laughed at his “somme” puns in the first half minute. Sadly not a peep from his students. You can even hear him wait for a brief second hear any laughter after the fact, realize nobody is laughing, then chuckle to himself about it. The somber first class is sometimes awesome.

This is an awesome video explaining wine. Just curious if someone could leave a link for the PDF slides that were on the video. Thank you

Thank you sir for the lecture

Got my first big girl job at stags leap in Napa 🖤

"... that's why they don't make wines in the central valley" - Actually they do, and much more of it than in Napa/Sonoma. From the foothills of the Sierras, to Lodi, down to Paso Robles. And for some wine varietals, it is a superior environment.

21:50 Had thought the last wine on the right would be an "orange" wine from Italy.

awesome JOb!!!

great basic info to know. wheres the pdf?

Very useful information about wines

Let's pick a random Burgundy wine, like for instance the most expensive and renowned domain in the entire region! You can find expensive wines anywhere, for instance, a 1992 screaming eagle from California will set you back $7000.

...old world does put varietals on their lables...yes even France....(plus back labels ) also: theres really good dry (non sweet) Riesling. What he said about the variety in Chardonnay also goes for Riesling!

I am really enjoying your straightforward presentation. However, I would like to respectfully remind you that a "varietal" is not a type of grape. A "varietal" is a "wine made primarily from one type of grape." A "variety" of grape is Cabernet Sauvignon. A bottle of Napa Cabernet Sauvignon is a "varietal".

Make sure you “remind” us with correct information. A varietal is indeed any subspecies of Vinus Vinifera. A varietal wine is a wine made from a single varietal, rather than a blend.

Does anybody use the aroma wheel when tasting wine? A friend of mine actually requested it when tasting. He thought it helped him get more flavors from the wine.

I love this

Good one 💎👍👍

Amazing information.

Does anyone have the pdf of this to share? :D

I've enjoyed this, thank you!

Very helpful video. I'm going to add it to my "Learn about Wine" Playlist on my channel. Cheers!

Merci beaucoup!

can I get some of the cards from the classes. I need help to organize information so I can access it

Are there any pdf related to the video as he mentioned in the beginning?

Decorking a wine is another audible association.

Link to the slides?

With respect to opening a sparkling wine, e.g. champagne might I suggest holding the cork securely and twisting the bottle.

Bordeaux wines tend to be ones that need aging before they open up while California wines are more fruit forward. That could explain the 1976 blind tasting. (I did see "Bottle Shock" BTW). As for the Stag's Leap, it was most likely the Cask 23, and no way you're getting a bottle of that for less than $175.00. Even their regular bottling is well over $80.00. Sangiovese is pronounced san-juy-vay-zee. There is no ' on the last e like in, cafe'. .

Any way of posting the slideshow in the description?

Sounds like Guillermo from What We Do in the Shadows

Mkay...

On old world wines the label on the backside of the bottle usually by law will state the grape varietal and give additional information on location of vinification and bottling. In addition old world wines are governed by strict laws contained in DOC or DOCQ regulations. New world wines can vinify wines paying no attention to traditional ru;es.

regarding new world vs old world: Old world = Europe. everything else=New world

Great.. Just the pronounciation of 'Sangiovese' ;).. And the 'montepulciano'

Wine is not that subjective. Quality is quality wathever you liked the wine or not.

surprisingly he did not mention Shiraz/Syrah as one of the dominant noble grapes

Yes they are. The taste that is missing is "salty", which to be honest is not very frequent in wine.

Very helpful video and thank you for that. Though, you were in between the lines very suggestive in favor in New world wines, specially US. In the manner of teaching I think you should be more objective and less suggestive.

Wines from the US are the best of the world, Riesling is sweet, in Europe wines are named by the region... Some of statement in this lecture... I would call them strange...

Beer is. Not wine. Says Benjamin Franklin

Some of the info are biased from someone from very limited knowledge

Saying "... wine is really subjective" is not helpful in understanding the world of wine - better to consider: the characteristics from "smell & taste" (data) vs evaluations/like-dislike of the "smell & taste" ...
