    Always a delight to watch André explain wine and the culture in such a casual way. I'd love a wine session with this dude!
  • @brynt.miller
    I'm still blown away that he worked at two restaurants with not one, not two, but THREE Michelin stars each. Even aiming for 2 is a really bold move. Talk about experience.
  • @KRayxKodessA
    I could listen to André talk all day. Like, I don't even really drink wine... but dude knows his stuff, and exudes passion.
  • @volliballgrl115
    As an amateur wine drinker, I deeply and thoroughly appreciate these videos. Andre is a real treasure. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
  • @Ord3ith
    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.
  • @Cwrigh25
    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!
  • @SaltyPenguin255
    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.
  • @tiacho2893
    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.
  • @isaacchavez7121
    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!
  • @cydneyisom3120
    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!
  • @shaukuduo
    This is a formal request for much more Andre Mack content. Best thing coming out of BA right now.
  • @carrisaamado
    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 !
  • @Winefolly
    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!
  • @itsclurg
    Learned how to correctly use a wine key today.... thanks Andre! More more more of this man please! :)
  • @steepology5985
    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.
  • @Jiggy609
    Love Andre. Give him his own show already!!!
  • @chrislarsen2684
    I just love Andre....I would love to drink a bottle of wine with him...
