In this episode we talked to André Hueston Mack of Mouton Noir Wines.  Despite having a successful career with Citicorp Investment Services, Mack decided to leave his “desk job” to pursue his passion for wine.  While working as a sommelier in San Antonio, Mack discovered the joys of introducing guests to the little known vineyards that first attracted him to the business and “the instant gratification of a guest’s reaction.”
While still in Texas, Mack was awarded the prestigious title of Best Young Sommelier in America by the highly regarded Chaine des Rotisseurs.  This recognition led to a job as sommelier at Thomas Keller’s world-renowned French Laundry in Yountville, California.  Mack went on to accept the position of Head Sommelier at Keller’s equally famed Per Se in New York City, where he managed a 1800-selection award-winning wine list and consulted regularly with Chef Keller on menu and pairing development.  Winemaking had always been a dream of his and came to fruition in 2007 when he founded Mouton Noir Wines.  Throughout his career, Mack has forged special relationships with star growers and winemakers from Oregon  and it is with this luminary group that he is currently making his most exciting wines.  Mouton Noir wines are served at the best restaurants across the United States.  He recently began curating wines for Club W, a wine club for a new generation of drinkers, to continue his mission of making wine more accessible.
Based on the success of his own wine labels, in 2011 Mack established Get Fraîche Cru, a boutique graphic design firm, for which he serves as creative director.  He was worked with clients such as Joel Gott, Palm Bay Imports, and Charles & Charles.  Most recently, Mack authored and designed Small Thyme Cooks, the world’s first culinary coloring and activity book.
Mack has been married since 2008 to author Phoebe Damrosch, whose New York Times notable book, Service Included: Four-Star Secrets of an Eavesdropping Waiter, detailed their courtship and collaboration in opening Per Se restaurant.
Mack has been featured in major publication such as Food and Wine, Wine and Spirits MagazineNew York Times, The Huffington Post, and The Wall Street Journal.  Mr. Mack has been recognized for his outstanding contributions to business.  He was honored in 2007 with The Network Journal’s 40-Under-Forty Achievement Award.  Mack is an ardent wine educator who has been invited to host seminars as well as lead panel discussions at several of the country’s most prestigious food and wine gatherings including Aspen Food and Wine and Newport Mansions Wine and Food Festival.

Winemaker/Founder Phil Long of Longevity Wines, began his journey making wine in the garage with his wife Debora.  Now with over a decade of winemaking experience, and a list of awards too long to print, Winemaker Phil continues his journey with the constant of always improving in place.  "In the business of winemaking, the minute you think you know it all, it's time to get out." The cellar practices and techniques that Phil uses in the production of wine are constantly re-evaluated and improved, to ultimately elevate the quality of the wines produced.  The grapes are personally sourced and chosen by Phil.  "Great wine starts with great fruit, there is no way around that."  Grapes are sourced from only the best vineyards for use in the production of Longevity Wines.  Phil began making wine in the Livermore Valley in 2006 under the Longevity label, using other facilities.  It was only a matter of time before production was moved from other facilities to Longevity's own facility in Livermore.  Yearly production has grown from 500 cases per year, to the current production of 2500 cases per year.  Phil enjoys the challenge of making many different wines, and continues to strive for wines that are high in quality instead of high quantities.
