Absolutely love this. Seeing your opinion on the sub $10 wine is super helpful. And the blind is just fun. Thank you, please keep it up!

@@MasterSommelierPeterNeptune I should have added "Well done" on figuring out what you were drinking. Very impressive even for a Master Sommelier.

I worked at TJ’s for 9 years, with my specialty being wine. There were a few “Really Good” wines, but no “Spectacular” wines. In my later years they finally acquired some Grand Cru Classe Bordeaux wines which were excellent, but not in the $20 range.

Definitely not at that price point any more.

Mr. Neptune, I watched 3 of your video's today. Enjoyed watching them and how you break down each wine. Super fun and informative. A long time ago I attended a couple of tasting you hosted at Wine Club in Santa Ana and those were a blast. I live way up north in El Dorado Hills these days so I don't have in person access to all the great wine resources that exist in your area for the last 3 years. I am subscribing to your channel. Very educational. ........thank-you....Chris

excellent video, great walkthrough of tasting notes so we could play along on the guessing. Appreciated the additional commentary on southern Rhone appellations. In contrast with other commenters, at this depth of discussion, 3 wines in 20 minutes feels sufficient to me and I wouldn't want double the duration or half the depth to accommodate 6 wines. I would be interested in this blind tasting at a higher price point, perhaps sub $25 or $30 - with audiences that are looking for this level of discussion, I'd expect they're shopping for wine at a higher price point that $10. A few video ideas: regions/varietals that offer outsized value, how to find quality & value among popular regions with far too many producers, varietal/region specific video showcasing typicity/classic vs more new or experimental producers within the same appellation. That said, I would also happily marathon more videos just like this one, blind tasting within a price bracket.

Peter, great video. New fan and subscriber here. I appreciate your blind tasting of very inexpensive wines with your impressive credentials and rating them. As a wine hobbyist and value-seeker, I enjoy this content. I have a rule that you seem to subscribe to as well: If a wine has an animal or kitchy name (think Marilyn Merlot or Sin Zin), I won't try it. My take is that the wine is sub-par and the marketing folks behind the label feel the need to draw in consumers with a catchy name or cute animals.

Already on a roll, but I do miss the solo cup. I was wrong about the suit jacket. It gives you a professorial air. Keep up the good work. Love your descriptions.

Over the years I’ve found you get what you pay for with wine. At that price point I don’t find that you get much and most is just ok. I’ve also found that California can really mess up a wine at that price point with a tendency to over oak it, or more likely …wood chip it to death. But, at any price point you should at least get something drinkable so kudos for tasting these and steering folks in the right direction.

At 16:00 I burst out laughing when you were commenting on the tribunal with unicorns on the label! 😂 I also really dislike these Frankenstein, manufactured, manipulated California wines. They have no substance to them and have that artificial, effusively fruity character. But they try to sell themselves with silly labels. They're sort of the Dr. Pepper of wine. And even Dr. Pepper is a superior beverage, which says a lot.

Another informative video. Agree with more choices. Konstantin Baum does 6 occasionally. Just have to comment on the camera angle. Even at full screen on an iPad, I see more of your office artifacts and degrees on the wall than I see of your face. Occasionally , there is a focus into you and tighter but the angle from high to low is not pleasant for the viewer.
