Very well done work, congrats You understood orography of Chile, the cost mountains range and the vineyards near to the Pacific ocean Andes Mountains range and the valley in the middle and wineyards by everywhere This is Chile Like
Hi Jimmy, I am an absolute fan of your videos!! I have Passed my WSET3 with MERIT 🤩🤩🤩 and I credit it to your videos. I wish I had had accessed your portal - that would probably get me the Distinction. Anyway, when the borders will be open, I ll pop up in London for a glass or bottle !! Great stuff!! Aga
I love your videos Jimmy. I am using them for reviewing material for my level 3 test and I find them very valuable. I am finding the lack of consistency of material between each video a bit saddening. For example, you went into great detail for German, yet Italy, which seems to have a completely different format as you named the videos by varietal instead of region which didn't cover the regions as much. Then, here in Chili, nothing mentioned about the varietals. I understand you need to save some information to attract the subscriber, but again, the lack of consistency of information is confusing. Then here in Chili, no mention of the varietals at all.
Hi JoJoIsland S - thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed comment. You have answered your own point on this - I upload FREE content to RUclips (which I work tirelessly on) and then upload the greater remainder to my online portal which also lists all the free content in order in folders. If you wanted the full structure - then please if you area able to sign up to my portal. In terms of the format that you mention - this is due to the fact that for the L3 certificate on Germany you need to know more about ONE varietal, Riesling, and then regions, then labelling/grading. With somewhere like Chile, there is very little to know on labelling/law and more on regions and varieties. For Italy - I actually haven't completed this section completely yet (as you can imagine I have filmed L3 and L4 content now for 7-8 months, filming over 80 hours of content and counting) - so this is on the agenda - and when the channel started the structure was focussed on regions that I believe are the most pertinent to the L3 syllabus. Above all, being the WSET Educator of the Year in 2018, I passionately structure these sessions with the student in mind, to help gain the confidence to pass the exam. But I cannot stress these two points more - firstly it is up to the student to structure their own revision, read the book and study - my presentations are here to help that process visually and passionately. Secondly, this is excellent and informative free content - but it is very much that, free. Jimmy
Hi Jimmy, just took my level 3 exam and had a huge written question about Chile climate, their Chardonnay, Carmenere and different questions about their wines and sites. Thank you for this video, it was essential for my exam now looking retrospectively , along with all your “understanding “ videos ! Moving on hop fully to Level 4 soon , please guide me again 👏, thank you
This is hugely helpful as a learning tool! I do much better with visual/auditory media than reading alone, so it's been a great way to help material from the book to stick. I have one comment that might come across as nit-picking, but which I bring up as a way to show these cultures the respect they deserve - please take the time to pronounce these names correctly. It's a common theme for us to work on our pronunciation of French words, for example, but then skip over words in other languages (Aconcagua, Colchagua, Maule...) which is, unfortunately, a colonial thing. And as an educator, you have a huge influence on the rest of us! Thank you again, and I'll continue enjoying your videos :)
Hi Katherine thank you greatly for your kind words on these free videos and I am glad you are finding them useful. Thanks for the constructive feedback too - one thing to note is that I am not a expert linguist by nature, and the nuances of the variety of languages covered in wine is vastly large, so there will inevitably be words or pronunciation that will not be perfect. For example, in one day I may switch from teaching a session on France then to Spain then onto Italy, then Hungary and then Chile etc and this is difficult to maintain the exact pronunciation every time, especially when I am more focussed on conveying the important vinous points that professional students are required to understand in order to pass their exams. I am certainly not trying to disrespect any culture and I apologise if that is how it comes across. Honestly, I just don't have enough time to research every linguistic detail in order to produce several WSET L3 and L4 videos a week for @winewithjimmy, teach a few live classes @westlondonwine school and @south_london_wine school, consult for a variety of clients and fulfil my duties as a wine buyer for @streathamwinehouse and the above wine schools and study my masters in viticulture and vinification. Perhaps I will look to hire an editor to fine-tooth comb the videos in order to increase the accuracy, and perhaps jazz up the production too. The channel is only 9 months old, so there is time to grow. I shall investigate.
Another great video, my friend! Thank you for the - free - lessons, they’re awesome and very helpful! Just wanted to make a note about this video: I believe you switched the concepts of “la niña” and “el niño”. La niña means more rainfall and el niño means a super dry weather condition. Cheers!
Great video as always, thanks so much for the depth on our wines. 👌💕
Any time!
