  1. Madeline, you did it again! Excellent intro to wines. Despite my being sort of "intermediate" in my wine knowledge and experience, I learned new things from your talk.
    Thanks! I'll look into the Wine 201 deal.

  2. Great stuff. I've really been enjoying Paul Hobb's offerings, especially his pinot from Goldrock Estate.

  3. I love sherry (vino de Jerez) and some other wines from Spain like vermouth, cava, Rioja and Rueda. ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ˜

  4. Thank you for your efforts. If I offer only one suggestion, please don't use that music in the background. I found the constant beat distracting and actually a little annoying. I'm sure others don't mind but it really wasn't necessary. Other than that, ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

  5. Thanks Madeline, good refresher on the 5 different types of wine!

  6. Hands down the best wine channel on YouTube, great book as well full of good info as someone who's just getting into wine it helped me a lot

  7. I work for a major National Beverage Retailer, and I use your videos, books, and other media to keep myself up-to-date and educated on all things wine. I also am constantly pointing co-workers and customers to your YouTube channel, because it is, IMO, the BEST place on the internet to get educated on wine, regardless of someone's level of experience or knowledge. Your videos are so accessible, so fun, and so packed with great info, that ANYONE can learn from them…

  8. Excellent Video, you are very Motivated and have loads of energy and passion.
    Yep Aussie Shiraz can be Excellent. Pinot Noir – Central Otago New Zealand, simply incredible wines. Try a Peregrine Pinot, itโ€™s a ripper for sure.
    In Western Europe Red Wine is often consumed with Fish, Sardines for one. As you mentioned, Fatty Fish and itโ€™s typically very salty. Touriga Nacional (a Grape used with Portuguese Port) and is also very popular in Red Wines including blends.
    Moรซt and Chandon is made from the Syrah/Shiraz Grape, simply remove the skin, wine is amazingly complex and intriguing.
    Port wine is of course from Douro Valley the oldest Grape Growing region in the World thousands of years.
    A great starter Dows 20 year old aged Tawny Port, not silly expensive but wow the smoothness and flavour.

  9. Another GEM of education Madeline! We often forget that basics are not just for learning once, but are made for revisiting time and time again. Great work!

  10. Great video. I have to say that your book was the first wine book I bought and I still use it today. Oh, and all wines you showed today I have hadโ€ฆ. I always recommend your videos, books and content, and other than one MW and one other wine expert I look at frequently youโ€™ve maintained your lack of snobbery since the first video. Iโ€™ve not found that to be the case pretty much every where else.

  11. I love and admire your passion, knowledge and enthusiasm about wine. You really love wines and everything they represent, and it's evident from all your clips! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Maybe you can broaden our knowledge also about spirits like whisky, rum etc? Anyhow, keep up your good work๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

  12. How can I live without pure wine? Impossible! How can I carry the weight of my body without wine? Impossible!
    Oh I die for the moment when Saki asks, to offer one more cup, and I just say…Impossible!

  13. You inspire me to become a somm. Iโ€™m still undecided but I love the wine community and culture. I have a dry palette but appreciate everything and the passion put into making it. I was surprised to find malbec rose from Crios. and Zuccardi A and Q are very different. I love the Q. I really love a good dry and spicy Chianti classico and if a superiore is available then yes please. Guigal rose is also a staple in my wine rack.

  14. Sour
    Vinegary
    Gross
    Nasty
    Disgusting
    … no one EVER took their VERY 1ST EVER DRINK OF ALCOHOL AND LIKED IT.
