Thank you so so so much for the love and support! I love your idea too! I will definitely put together a beginner’s guide to varietals video! I think like “Every Wine Varietal Explained in 10 Minutes” type of thing. What do you think?
Seriously amazing video as always! I would love to see you with 100x the number of subscribers because you deserve it! I would love to see a video comparing cheap, mid, high priced wines of the same type of wine in the same region so we can understand the differences! (hopefully wines that are very easily accessible so we can taste along)
My friend, thank you so so so much for the kind words and the support. It really means the world to me! Also, I would be more than happy to make this video! I think it’s a great idea for a series! I am curious, what do you think should be the max prices for cheap, mid, and high?
Awesome video. I appreciate how comprehensive and fun it is (like all your videos). Well done, thanks for doing it. I'm hoping you get back to another TJ video, maybe Cabs (please)? Thanks, keep up the great work.
@@wineguydustin well I did pay Total Wine a visit after watching your video, and they had it there for $269 a bottle, but went for a more affordable Champagne instead.
So glad to see a new vid! Have honestly been waiting for it. Haven't watched any of the vid yet, i'm predicting JayZ's Champagne to be very expensive for the quality. :) Edit: 1 min 20s in this is not going where I thought it was, am super intrigued hahaha hype is real.
Wow, that was very interesting and I truly was surprised, that you we're this euphoric with the Jay-Z-bottle. But you have a point in describing, what a bottle of this appearance can mean. Im looking forward for the Champagne-Video 🤩
Thank you so much for the kind words! I honestly was surprised too! It was WAY better than I expected. They are genuinely running a top-shelf operation over there. I can’t wait to share the champagne video with you too! Thank you for being a part of this wild journey with me. I can’t wait to see where it goes!
I thought it was funny that Cristal sales INCREASED after the whole hip-hop boycott. It helped Jay-Z to sell his champagne, and it didn't hurt Cristal, so I guess it was a win-win situation.
Have you tried Cristal. It’s actually very good! Made by one of the best champagne houses, with one of the best chef de caves at the helm. The rappers only drank it because of its price and unavailability, it is a stunning wine. They don’t know what good wine tastes like. Yeah it’s great for the brand but it doesn’t dilute how good this wine actuallly is. The current vintage is 2015, hence the price and the acidity is razor sharp with richness behind it. Get a grip. And how to compare a $300 bottle of champers with a $30 bottle of Prosecco. Click bait. Stupid American.
Another banger!! I Purchased my first Champaign the other day.. a cheap one I got at Aldi (Monsigny $30). Have you had this one? Will this purchase give me an idea of Champaign or did I go too far down the cheap ladder? Monsigny is made for Aldi by philizot & fils,in case that helps.
Aw buddy, thank you so much for the kind words! I am beyond excited that you found it to be a banger! I’m so happy to hear you picked up your first champagne! As for your question, not at all! That’s the beauty of champagne! Since the wine laws are so strict, the minimum quality is really high. So it likely is a great option! In my experience, the more expensive champagne tend to behave like more expensive liquors. In other words, they become smoother. Champagne can be a little bracing. It has a lot of carbonation and minerality. Higher priced ones tend to manage both a bit better by providing you with smaller, more delicate bubbles and a bit more roundness from oak again. So if you don’t like the Monsigny, it’s still possible you will like a more expensive one. And if you do like the Monsigny, then you definitely will like the more expensive ones! You have to let me know what you think of it when you try it!
Thank you so much for the kind words!! I am definitely covering a few grocery store champagnes in the part 2 of that video, so I think you’re going to have your answer very soon 🙂
Nice, wasn't expecting the journalistic deep dive which was done very well. Sense of humor is fantastic as always. However 36 months lees ageing and hand riddling doesn't explain a 200$ price tag, this is quite normal in Champagne. Palmer & Co brut reserve is 36 minimum and is like 50$(I recommend this btw if you like big creamy champagnes with like 8gr res sugar). I am sure Goldy's quality is legit as you say but the winemaking specs on their own don't really explain the price tag for me. For 200$ you can buy Krug... KRUG!!! :P Roederer vintage is also fantastic value premium Champagne, around 75$ I think. I totally understand your point though that JayZ's bubbles are a product that has real craftsmanship and thought put into it while the other bottle is just a gimmick. The real issue here imo is 30$ the prosecco which is not even particularly well made. That is an 8$ wine being sold for 30$ because of an ugly bottle. It makes me sad that it exists hahaha. Excited for the Champagne video :)
Dude you are supremely knowledgeable. And even more, you have exceptional taste. Krug is hands down my numero uno champagne. It is simply magnificent. It would go beyond an A and is definitely S territory. I hadn’t ever heard of Palmer & Co! Thank you a million times over for the suggestion. I’m ordering a bottle now! I can’t wait to try it! And I totally agree with you about the Prosecco. It is truly low-rent wine living in a pricey, downtown high-rise.
Cases of gold plated bottles of wine? I am a 50 year old man on a fixed income,born into a life of Lone Star beer and trailer parks who has never purchased a wine that cost more than $30,not for lack of want,I am just forced into QPR... All that said,a case for me,a few to give away,find a way to sell the rest,lol.
As the son of an auto mechanic living in Texas, I feel connected to a lot of what you shared! Although, my Dad was a staunch Miller Lite guy (without exception lol). I think this is the most reasonable use of the cases of gold plated bottles we’re likely to hear. Stick with me though, my friend. As this thing grows, I promise I’ll find a way to get a few higher end bottles of wine in your hands! I definitely want you to have a chance to try them!!
@@wineguydustin lol,yep,Miller lite is another one I saw/see everywhere.. Awe,that is so kind of you to say,I'm not going anywhere,this is a great channel.. Also,another quick question.. Being a Texan,I can't help but snap up inexpensive Texas wines whenever I see them but tbh I have disliked most I have tried.. I am sure there are many really good wines made in the hill country at higher price points but are there any Texas wines that are worth trying that are A- fairly easy to find B-decent if not good I realize that the answer here may well be no..
What would *I* do with a bottle of gold-plated Ace of Spades, you ask? Throw it in my cellar near the bottom with the rest of the cheap wines, of course!
Very entertaining and proper comparison between a vanity Prosecco and vanity champagne. No question about the difference. Great video
Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m so glad the video was entertaining and valuable for you!
Love the video, can’t for next one to come out soon. I would love to one day get a beginner’s guide to varietals, cheers to you Dustin!

Fantastic video! I’m learning so much from you. Waiting patiently for the next !
Aw thank you very much for the love and support, Momma Bear!
Awesome video. Great production quality. Really informative content delivered with humor. Thanks!
Thank you so much for tuning in again! And thank you for the encouragement! I am so glad you enjoyed the video!!
Loved this! Super interesting to learn the difference between champagne and Prosecco. Best explanation I’ve seen so far!
Aw thank you so much, darling for being so supportive. I can’t believe how lucky I am to have you as my wife 🙂😘

@@wineguydustin I think something like $10-25 for cheap, $25-50 for mid, and $50-100 for high!
I appreciate how you teach us without over complicating the information. I actually learned a lot from you today! Great video!
Aw thank you so so so much for the kind words. I can’t tell you how much they meant to me. I’m so glad the video was valuable for you!
Awesome video. I appreciate how comprehensive and fun it is (like all your videos). Well done, thanks for doing it. I'm hoping you get back to another TJ video, maybe Cabs (please)? Thanks, keep up the great work.
Dude thank you so so much for the support and the encouragement! I may or may not already be working on a TJs cab video… stay tuned!
@wineguydustin Will do, thanks for the response.
Love it professor keep up the good work
Thank you so much for the support, buddy. I really appreciate it!
Love your videos, this was fun
Thank you so so so much for your support! You’ll have to let me know if you decide to take the plunge on a bottle of Ace of Spades 😬😬

great video, was in the grocery store with my girl today and was wondering if id find anything ace of spades quality lmaooo
Thank you so much for the kind words!! I am definitely covering a few grocery store champagnes in the part 2 of that video, so I think you’re going to have your answer very soon 🙂
When you removed the blindfold, how did you know champagne was on your left? Was it written on the base of the glass?
Basically, yeah! I put a little color coded sticker on the base of the glass so I knew which one was which!
