Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:03):
Hello and welcome. This is Connoisseur's Corner. I'm Jordan Rich
and joining me today is Ken Hoggins of Ken'swineguide dot
Com with some Halloween wine suggestions and no, unlike Dracula,
I don't drink wine. I do drink wine, and so
do you. So, Ken, what do you have for us?

Speaker 2 (00:18):
Well Halloween? I like to recommend drinking some red wine
while you're passing out the candy. And I've got two
scary good petite surahs for you to enjoy while doing that.
The first one, a great producer known to make a
lot of wines with scary names, is Anarchy, and they're
twenty twenty two heretic petit Serraz, just terrific midnight purple colored,
which makes it spooky just to begin with, full bodied,

(00:40):
nicely balanced, velvety and seamless and BlackBerry and fig flavors
in their little cherry cola and stewed plump, well managed
for fine tannins that are nicely sustained. It's a very
impressive wine to enjoy while you're passing out that candy.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
Let's have another treat in the trick or treat pile.
What do you have for number two.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Well, when your friends show up after the trick our trading,
why should they get the only treats? So try the
twenty twenty three Robbert Biali Royal Punishers Petitzarat. Full bodied, balanced,
round and mouthwatering. Got a little bit of a freshness
in there for a petitzera with some mulberry and black
plum flavors, well managed, moderate dry tannins are nicely sustained,
and like I said, both these petitzeras are a nice

(01:19):
treat for the adults, So why should the kids have
all the fun.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Indeed, and I love the names on those labels. Thank you,
