last night he passed by my house I was
about to go to the gym and I told him
that that I'm meeting you please come n
I'm not coming I don't want to spoil
this because you inv inv surprise this
is a all right now let's start all over
again over very interesting we just did
10 rules for kos.com for P I said a rule
he said a rule and then we
put and it was very interesting what is
your
rules I got to come up with 10 when you
guys
come on let's see how many you going to
repeat it's so easy because we're about
to go into 40 okay first of all don't
over complicate things okay no my first
rule is no rigid rules I don't believe
in rules in general I struggle with
rules that's why I don't fly certain
airlines because they're really rigid
with rules so I'm I'm the guy that
believes in no rules you close your
speed belts or you don't well let's not
get too detailed I I want to be I want
to be a continued fly I don't want to be
kicked off any of my memberships so the
first rule is you can't be too rigorous
out the rule this is meant to enjoy wine
is meant to en enjoy it's not like Ackle
gamuda and a wine that you don't enjoy
no matter how good it is is the wrong
wine for you big believer for beginners
and many of us always still like to do
this shabas for example I saw him in a
mood of white I was just not in a mood
of intensity I had a Russian River white
but I have to tell you that I was
Thursday night at an event in the city
and I had the
RMA um saon Blanc proba the best exactly
you can't not like that wine find that
wine that you can always enjoy and
always go back to it when you're not in
the mood of thinking and overanalyzing
your wine find that Rim up PA find that
Baron herach shanon Blan wine that you
could just love without having to think
the other rule is I think you must have
said that is you know wine is is
something that you don't drink you sip
it you sip it slowly and you enjoy it
I'm sure you went through that um You
probably talked about opening the wine
and letting it breathe didn't we
actually not at all you didn't do any of
that okay wine develops as the meal
develops but sometimes it develops
because the wine is breathing but the
truth is sometimes developed because
you're eating I really really find that
as you're eating and as you're you're
you're you're enjoying your food the
wine becomes more tasty and and it talks
a different language like when you're
having a conversation beginning
conversation hey M how you doing and
then as we get more intense in the
conversation we're talking we're
debating that same conversation happens
to a glass of wine so the first time
you're tasting the wine after kidish
it's very light like hey how are you I
think I know you I'm not sure I
recognize you from anywhere and then 15
20 minutes in when you having your third
course having a great conversation with
the one you're into it he's talking to
you you're talking to him or she's
talking to you you're talking to him
it's fun it's enjoyable but like I said
the Second Battle is when the harmony
starts yeah yeah but but you know and
and you don't have to drink a lot people
always ask me Joseph and you know this
most people in the industry it's time
for you to leave Mo most people in the
industry don't over consume don't
overindulge wine is a luxury that's true
wine is not I'm not talking perm which
is the one day in year when where
overindulgence is welcomed and
encouraged but we don't overindulge it's
more important to enjoy the wine than to
have as much of it as possible one main
thing don't gulp wine is not meant to
gulp talk about drinking water slow but
I I really find the number one thing
that I find is that as the meal loosens
as the conversation loosens the wine
loosens along with it and wine is not
black and white I bought you know um
Josh Greenstein our friend bought me
this Aroma kit okay yeah have of
different of different Aromas and yeah
and actually works so one of the things
that my kids are now having fun and I'm
seeing as they play the game and they're
having fun I always tell this is more
important for beginners than for experts
always open up two bottles at a time put
two glasses side by side regardless of
whether you're an expert or not when you
have two glasses and you smell a nap and
Alexander you will I'll add something
now not for every shabas there's so many
great battles that come out more and
more in 375s and Pines so I always tell
people get a white get a Ros get a red I
like what I'm saying is if you want to
learn I spent two years doing this if
you want to learn wine the best way to
learn is to differentiate it's the best
best way to learn take a lineage lineage
sh and Rush River Shard but before they
do the two battles and do this
test do yourself a favor take the same
bottle and pour in a wine glass and then
in your regular 16 oz tumbler or
whatever other glass you're using and
pour those two glasses and smell them
side by side you'll see that there's a
difference so do that first and then go
up to to the next step of two different
ones so and and and when you do two
differ not necessarily White and the red
it could be Baron herach shanon Blanc
which don't tell anybody but is one of
my favorites and baron like Chardon
right it's a $7 wine and one is a $12
wine put them side by side and then you
you won't ask people like is there
really a difference you'll see the
difference 100% you'll see a difference
exactly I always tell people that so
where are we rule number four I
think what are you drinking on P what
are you starring
you Thursday night after Milla you're
thirsty you're hungry you come home what
do you do I told you I'm a man without
rules I'm a man without plans I love
spontaneity like this guy does I love
being spontaneous I go down and I
literally you find the you become in the
mood of a certain battle 100% as I look
as I shop again wine has to be fun it's
to be very very open to exploring you
have to be loose I think the biggest
mistake and the reason people who like
wine never really enjoy wine is cuz
they're very fixated on what they need
to taste and how they need tast and if
they don't find the taste that mimay
said yeah we're part of this if they
don't find the taste that Joseph herach
said on his video you're going to taste
apple and I'm like I don't get apple and
they
feel it's like I'm learning I don't get
it something I don't I don't get it so I
must be learning the G get take out an
oscal I don't get it it's not exactly
the way it is everybody has different
different different ways gets credit for
this because Moshi one of the things
that Moshi has accomplished and he's
done in a mass way he took snob out of
the wine exactly the wine used to be
this whole snob appeal and this and that
you took snab out of wine it's
approachable to anybody you could
everybody could relate It Do Your Own
Thing find your own thing smell your
time I smelled green pepper and seagull
D Mero 2004 I remember where I bought it
I was like finally because everybody
says they you smell green pepper and I
remember I remember I remember it was
like 25 years ago I was I was in The
Vineyards with Peter Stern and we had
saon Blanc and it peeled a peel of saon
Blanc the original Baron her Savon Blanc
the original her the original the Peter
St The Legend and I I bit into the into
the peel of the Savon Blanc and I had
jalapeno I had jalapeno peppers in the
saon Blanc I was like yeah it's
unbelievable and then I remember once I
was with Yi FR who and we we had a
pinotage Baran Superior page and we
had and it had rubber it had
like yeah rubbery things so every once
in a while you'll have that don't look
for it don't make this like oh it's not
a riddle no but I I I think it's
opposite I think you have these
different things and the certain moments
you call them light switch moments that
they click there certain moments that
click and you remember that all of a I
now get it but but if you spent 20 years
looking for you 20 years not enjoying
wine I have a blind taste for you you
ready I'm ready let's do it yeah okay
