Why you hate the wine your friends love #bighammerwines #wine

Ever pretended to like a glass of wine just so you didn't look uncultured at dinner? You aren't alone. 🍷👀 We’ve all been conditioned to think that if a wine is expensive and our friends like it, we must taste the "crushed violets" and "wet stone." And if it just tastes like burning alcohol and bitter dirt? We assume our palate is broken. The truth? Your tastebuds just work differently. Wine is not a one-size-fits-all beverage. Stop forcing yourself to drink heavy, overpowering wines just to fit in. What is a popular or expensive wine that you secretly think tastes awful? Confess in the comments. 👇 Hit subscribe to find the wines your tastebuds will actually love. #winelovers #wineforbeginners #winesnobs #relatable #dinnerparty

Stewardship: André Hueston Mack | Cultural Architect of Wine

In this episode of our series, we explore how one of the most recognizable disruptors in the industry went from the French Laundry to founding Maison Noir Wines. Stewardship: André Hueston Mack | Cultural Architect of Wine is a deep dive into bow he uses things like design, hip-hop, and skate culture to make wine relevant for a new generation. From his early days watching Frasier in Texas to running the beverage program at Per Se, André Hueston Mack has always been willing to learn the rules in order to break them. Today, he is redefining what it means to be a "steward" of the industry by shifting the focus from the vineyard to the culture. We discuss: • The "Frasier" Catalyst: How a sitcom gave him the courage to walk into a wine store. • Mouton Noir: Embracing the "Black Sheep" alter ego as a source of power. • Disrupting the Industry: Why wine commercials need to stop walking through vineyards and start showing up at the cookout. • Maison Noir Wines: Building a creative tent for d

3 Stuck Ferments. One Easter Weekend. No Day Off.

It's Easter weekend. Most people are off. We're not — three tanks of Fiano have stuck in ferment, and we need to bring them back before they spoil. This vlog runs across the long weekend and into the following week. We restart the Fiano with a yeast culture, warm the tanks with heat jackets, and check the Baumé daily to see whether the yeast are actually metabolising the last of the sugar. Jess walks Henry through how we measure free and total SO2 with the aspiration-oxidation method (and why we'd rather not use the ripper method). Then it's out to the vineyards for a quick Nebbiolo clone comparison — 111 vs 230 — and a check on the Sangiovese before forecast rain. This is the stuff that doesn't make the highlight reel. End of vintage is when the problems you didn't have time to notice during the chaos finally surface, and you spend six weeks quietly working through them. If you want to see how a small winery actually deals with stuck ferments, low YAN juice, and the slow grind of f
