  • S3 Ep6. Ready for the Weekend by Calvin Harris
    Mar 14 2023

    No one can agree about the music this episode, but we do all agree that the drinks are terrific. We learn about Calvin Harris’s Twitter tirades; Bonnie pays a visit and quizzes us on strange rapper’s names, and the accompanying Spotify playlist is a banger!

    To match Ready for the Weekend, David brings a modern classic the Cosmopolitan cocktail

    Recipe: 2 shots vodka, 1 shot Cointreau (or ½ Cointreau and ½ Grand Marnier), 1 shot fresh lime juice, a dash of simple syrup, and 2 shots Cranberry Juice. Shake over ice in a cocktail shaker and serve in a martini glass or coupe glass. Garnish with an orange twist.

     

    While Christian brings a $46 deliciously funky 2018 Dr Mayer Remstal Pinot Noir from Germany. https://wineexperience.com.au/wine/mayer-remstal-pinot-noir-germany

  • S3 Ep4. 1999 by Prince
    Feb 7 2023

    Join as we match a couple of wonderfully strange wines to 1999 the album that launched Prince to superstardom. We get down and dirty with his wonderful music and ‘The Edge’ from Edge’s Hedges pays us a visit for a quiz. 

     

    W&VC SPOTIFY PLAYLIST – S3. Ep4 Prince: 1999. This is a collection of songs from the album, along with some of the recommendations we made in the podcast episode.  https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6XaeMvPSql41Hp2W432jPf?si=354a72a97e2349a7

     

      

    To match 1999, Chris brings a $26 crunchy, fruity red blend 2021 Rude Boy produced by Brave New Wine from The Great Southern wine region in WA. https://bravenewwine.com.au/index.php

     

     

    While Christian brings an unfamiliar $30 Italian red called Terre di Vita Decimani Perricone 2021 from Sicily.

     

     

    MUSIC RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THIS EPISODE: 

    Obviously more Prince – Sign O the times, Come, Controversy 

    Stevie Wonder (Talking Book (1972), Innervisions (1973), Fulfillingness’ First Finale (1974), and Songs in the Key of Life (1976)

    “Give Up the Funk” Parliament Funkadelic, 1975

    “That’s Good” by Devo, 1978

     

     

    WINE RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THIS EPISODE:

    Chris suggests trying another Italian red, Nero d'avola which should be easier to find in Australia than the Sicilian Perrecone. 

    Also try an organic or biodynamic wine with minimal intervention. If you can get two bottles see if there are any differences between them.
