We finish the season with a truly iconic band and an album full of bangers, or is it?

Kate’s back in the club and does her best to reign us in (with little success). A lot of alcohol was consumed during the recording of this episode, which likely explains why we get a bit slurry. We hope you enjoy listening and look forward to doing it all again in season 5.

Every episode the podcast has an accompanying Spotify Playlist. Below is a link to 30 tracks made from a selection of tunes from this episode’s album, plus additional artists we think you might like if you enjoyed listening to this album.

W&VC SPOTIFY PLAYLISTS – S4 Ep10. ABBA: Voulez Vous

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5Qw9DsDZvWPpeWNUgXUDSm?si=ab8e74cc22ef4f6b

To loosen our vocal cords David brought a bottle of $39 MeiJian Umeshu (Japanese plum wine).

To match ‘Voulez-Vous” Christian brought an $80 bottle of Pangea 2011 Apalta Vineyard Syrah (Colchagua Valley), Chile. https://www.wine-searcher.com/find/pangea+sra+apalta+colchagua+valley+chile/2011/australia?srsltid=AfmBOoogJy2vpZePoN8-b_yluBobkWU9cAKL98vli26stTjFXfO_NN5B

For our value wine Kate went to COSTCO and bought a $19.00 bottle of Oyster Bay Pinot Noir from Marlborough, New Zealand. https://www.oysterbaywines.com/au/our-wines/marlborough-pinot-noir/

WINE RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THIS EPISODE:

David strongly recommends finding some Umeshu (Japanese plum wine) and trying it on the rocks, or with soda or ginger ale.

Chris suggests trying some South American wines such as Malbec or Carmenere particularly a bottle from Ventisquero. Also, why not try a ‘Pinoff’ between a Pinot noir from New Zealand vs one from Australia.

INTRO/OUTRO MUSIC: “Go With You Darlin’” by All Good Folks https://uppbeat.io/track/all-good-folks/go-with-you-darlin

SOUND EFFECTS: https://www.zapsplat.com/

A huge album and a huge wine to match it. Do Chris, Christian and David agree on this album? Definitely not! But no matter our differences, we all agree the wines are stunning and the Gallagher brothers were funny as f*#! Apologies for all the swearing in this episode, but it’s hard not to when quoting Liam and Noel.

W&VC SPOTIFY PLAYLISTS – S4 Ep9. Oasis: (What’s the Story?) Morning Glory

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/42aDxuyk5m7ZGQvjF5J18J?si=8ab63c810a0a4cc1

To match ‘(What’s the Story?) Morning Glory’ by Oasis, Chris brought a $110 bottle of 2019 Clos Saint Jean, Chateauneuf du Pape in France. https://closstjean.fr/

For our value wine Christian went to COSTCO and bought a $7.99 2017 Faustino Rivero Ulecia, Reserva from Rioja in Spain. https://www.bodegasfaustino.com/en/

WINE RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THIS EPISODE:

Although Chris likens the Chateauneuf du Pape blend to an Australian GSM but they are not really comparable. Perhaps try one of Chris’s favourite Australian Shiraz blends, the Yarra Yerring Shiraz Viognier. However, if you are in the market for a stunning wine and your price point will stretch to over $100, get this wine the 2019 Clos Saint Jean, Chateauneuf du Pape. We don’t think you will be disappointed.

Rioja’s in general tend to be good value, and for $7.99 its unlikely you will find a better value wine than the 2017 Faustino Rivero Ulecia, Reserva from COSTCO.

INTRO/OUTRO MUSIC: “Go With You Darlin’” by All Good Folks https://uppbeat.io/track/all-good-folks/go-with-you-darlin

SOUND EFFECTS: https://www.zapsplat.com/

This episode the W&VC is joined by Riley who also chose the album. X was definitely outside our comfort zone but as always there were lots of laughs and plenty of good booze.

Every episode the podcast has an accompanying Spotify Playlist. Below is a link to 30 tracks made from a selection of tunes from this episode’s album, plus additional artists we think you might like if you enjoyed listening to this album.

W&VC SPOTIFY PLAYLISTS – S4 Ep8. Ed Sheeran: X

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2dBYKibs3EIAC3BDCHZFdy?si=ec1d9a39ce0248d9

To match ‘X’ by Ed Sheeran, Riley brings a classic cocktail, an Old Fashioned: 1 and ½ shots of bourbon or rye whiskey, 1 cube of sugar or ½ shot of simple syrup, 2 dashes Angostura bitters, orange peel for garnish and a splash of water over ice.

David brought the value wine for this episode. He visited Commune Wines in Maylands, Perth and Daisy recommended a bottle of Wilyabrup Chardonnay 2023 from Fairbrossen Wines, WA for $28. https://www.fairbrossen.com.au/

To match the album Chris brought a bottle of Galway Pipe 12 YO Grand Tawny fortified wine. https://galwaypipe.com.au/products

WINE RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THIS EPISODE:

If you are partial to a more modern style of Chardonnay, then Chris recommends Margaret River and Yarra Valley as two Australian wine regions to explore. Or if your bank balance allows, try a French Chablis or something from the Mâconnais.

Fortified wines such as Muscat from the Swan Valley are fantastic. Chris recommends wineries such as Taliancich or Sitella. Or you could try some real Port from the Douro Valley in Portugal.
