Essential Work with Andre Mack Aug 07, 2020

Show notes

Richard and Jazmin sit-down (virtually) with Andre Mack; renowned sommelier, winemaker and, most recently, essential worker in Brooklyn at his newly opened &Sons wine bar and market. The guys wears a lot of hats and we get in to all of them on this episode. Not to mention he finally settles the controversy over Taylor Pork Roll/Ham. Plus, geek out with Richard as he asks those questions you always want to ask a sommelier from a Michelin-starred restaurant like: what's the oldest bottle you've opened or what was the most expensive bottle of wine you've sold? Come along for a inspiring talk and walk away with two solid sub sandwich recipes too.
