The Rider / Cruse Wine Co. Monkey Jacket
Episode 21, Nov 05, 2021, 07:00 AM
The Epic Conclusion of JAMIE’S HISTORY OF AMERICAN WINE
Jamie swears the name* ‘Monkey Jacket’ has a connection to sea shanties, but his co-host is skeptical. Scott promised himself he wouldn’t go off about Marvel movies when discussing Chloe Zhao’s ethos, style, and filmography on an episode that just so happens to be dropping the day Zhao’s latest, MARVEL’S ETERNALS, hits theaters; Jamie’s got $20 says otherwise. This California red blend and this quiet, contemplative Western are both supposedly sunny; will our hosts adequately defend their pretenses, or is disorder and disarray a foregone conclusion? And just what exactly is “Jamie’s Terroir”? Smash that play button for all this and way too much more!
*Calling anything ‘Monkey Jacket’ is objectively hilarious and we’ll hear nothing to the contrary, thank you very much.
