About this listen
In today’s episode, we chat with André Hueston Mack, acclaimed sommelier, designer, and founder of Maison Noir Wines, whose journey into the wine world started far from the vineyard in a corporate office at Citicorp.
André shares how a bold leap of faith led him from finance to fine dining, where he trained as a sommelier in San Antonio and eventually led award-winning wine programs at The French Laundry and Per Se. He discusses the importance of storytelling in wine service, his mission to make wine more approachable through design and media, and how his diverse experiences continue to shape his unique voice in the industry.
Join us as André reflects on following passion over convention and the creative path that made him one of the most respected figures in modern wine culture.
