S2 Ep.2 A Night at the Opera by Queen Artwork

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.

S2 Ep.2 A Night at the Opera by Queen

April 17, 2022 • Chris, David and Christian • Season 2 • Episode 2

Join us, as we fight and laugh our way through this record of wildly differing styles of music but always maintaining their unique ‘Queen’ sound.

“I just don’t get it.” “I love it.” “It sounds like musical theatre.” Can you guess who said which quote? As always, Chris and Christian bring a couple of delicious wines to match the album. Who wins this episode’s competition? Listen and find out.

To match this album, Chris brings a bottle of The Musician 2020 a perfect pairing of Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz from Majella Wines in the Coonawarra, South Australia. The colour is vibrant deep ruby red with a crimson hue. Fresh mint, eucalyptus and spice make up the lifted nose. The palate is soft and well balanced, with blackberries and cassis flavours with supple soft tannins. At $16 a bottle this wine is fantastic value. https://www.majellawines.com.au/our-wines/the-musician

Christian brings a bottle of $45 Palmer 2016 Malbec from Margaret River in Western Australia. An exciting variety of wine featuring intense vibrant colours and rich flavours with a soft velvety textured finish. https://www.palmerwines.com.au/
