WORLD OF WINE WITH ANDRE MACK
In his wildly popular World of Wine with Andre Mack video series on YouTube, André Mack breaks down wine culture, defines wine jargon, takes blind tastings, and demystifies the beverage world by tasting budget wines, popular brands, ultra-premium luxury bottles, spirits, and more. Through his humble charisma, Mack opens the doors to a world that often feels overly exclusive.
THE BEST WINE KEY
Designed by Craighill in collaboration with sommelier André Hueston Mack, the Best Wine Key is more than a hunk of articulated steel with a boastful name. This wine key boasts a substantial presence in the user’s hand, a tactile reminder of its oenological authority. Its foil knife is precisely angled to keep the serrated blade on task as it makes its rounds, and the ratcheted swingarm mechanism transforms the once tedious chore of cork extraction into a smooth, satisfying ritual.
99 BOTTLES: A BLACK SHEEP’S GUIDE TO LIFE-CHANGING WINES
In this entertaining, informative, and thoroughly unconventional wine guide, award-winning sommelier, winemaker, and wine educator André Mack presents readers with the 99 bottles that have most impacted his life. Instead of just pairing wines with foods, Mack pairs practical information with personal stories, offering up recommendations alongside reflections on being one of the only African-Americans to ever work at the top level of the American wine industry.
