    I’ve had the pleasure of talking with Andre and he is just as kind and friendly in person as he is in these videos. If you’re ever in NYC, I’d highly recommend the wine bar that he owns and operates in Brooklyn called & Sons. A very cute intimate and warm wine bar with a fantastic list that focuses on US wines. They also have a great menu of charcuteries which they hand slice with these cool vintage flywheel slicers. I’ve heard great things about his restaurant Kingfisher as well, but haven’t been yet.

I read some comments below and it appears he owns a wine bar, so start there! Have some "real people" taste and comment about his suggestions!
    I used to watch a show in the UK when visiting my dad that had sommeliers compete and it was the greatest thing "this was crown in Chile, the southern coast, a west facing side, picked by Jose and his burrow Charlie, on a Wednesday when it was 72 degrees and it's X brand". It was the best!
