EPISODE 0410: A Song of Wit and Wine
Manage episode 459575237 series 2884628
DEFENDANT: George R.R. Martin
EVIDENCE: House of the Dragon Cabernet Sauvignon
SCENE OF THE CRIME: Westeros
--
Welcome back, my fellow wine aficionados and Westeros wanderers! In today’s True Crimes Against Wine, we're popping the cork on a special edition for all you Game of Thrones and House of Dragon fans. Picture this: the lush vineyards of Oregon meet the mystery of the Iron Throne. Are you intrigued yet?
We’re diving deep into the heart of the Willamette region, dissecting its finest Pinot Noir while musing over what makes this grape the 'heartbreak' of wines. Expect nothing less than a silky, seductive sip with just a whisper of vanilla and a gentle caress of French oak. Sounds like a perfect smooch in a glass, right?
Stay tuned as we fumble our way through tasting notes, discuss the athletic prospects of netball (British listeners, isn’t this a hoot?), and, oh yes, our vigorous debate on costumed characters from the Seven Kingdoms! Whether you’re more of a Stark, Lannister, or Targaryen (or like us, just trying to not spill the wine), there’s something in today’s episode for every type of fan.
