Wine & Vinyl Club

Welcome to the Wine and Vinyl Club. A podcast for people who love drinking wine and listening to good music. Once a fortnight David, Chris and Christian discuss an album from an eclectic mix of classics from the Beatles through to Harry Styles. Then the fun part, we attempt to match a bottle of wine to the album and also sample a value wine and occaisionally a cocktail too. We hope to encourage our listeners to try something different when drinking or listening to music and most importantly have a laugh with us.

S1 Ep.8 Make it Big by Wham!

February 12, 2022 • Chris, David and Christian • Season 1 • Episode 8

Show Notes

Chris, David and Christian attempt to match 3 different drinks to Wham! - Make It Big. The British pop duo’s 1984 sophomore album. An 80’s pop confection that delights and disappoints in equal measure.

To match this album. Chris brings, Big and Bold Shiraz. A $5.50 quaffer that is exactly what it says on the label. The Big & Bold Shiraz was made for the Australian supermarket chain, Coles by McPherson Wines in Victoria.

David brings, a ‘Careless Whisper’ cocktail, which is really a rebranded Pornstar Martini. Recipe: https://www.amytreasure.com/pornstar-martini/

Christian brings a delightful Henry Fessy, Morgon Crus Beaujolais. A $27 light summer red. https://www.henryfessy.com/en/
