Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:03):
Hello again, Welcome. This is Connoisseurs Corner and I'm Jordan Rich.
We talk about everything from food to restaurants to wine.
We're doing a little wine talk today with Matt Robinson
of Matt's Meals m atts dash Meals dot com. I
love the name of this one, Purple Pacoderm Winery tell
us more well.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Before I promoted eateies and drinkeries on international radio, I
was a contributor to Rolling Stone and Billboard and was
covering the music scene. One particularly memorable assignment, I got
to interview my bass idol Less Playful of the band Primus.
Been a fan for years, and so I was really
thrilled to find out that I had another way to
connect with him. He has a winery in California called
Purple Pacoderm in the Russian River Valley, about an hour

(00:40):
and a half from the Bay Area and is run
by Less and his wife, and they have a lot
of friends and neighbors in the wine industry that they've
taken inspiration from. Their product is really pretty spectacular. Their
pin Arnoir is their leader, but they also have a
rose and they're coming out with a champagne pacaderm that
will make it even more fun to bring on the
Pink Elephants as it were. They have a League of

(01:03):
Extraordinary Slurpers l e S Spells Last, which is their
wine club, and if you're in the valley you can
go buy their tasting room and try their latest wares
while checking out some of Less's a really incredible memorabilia collection.
More information is at purplepachoderm dot com. Whether you're a
Primus fan or not, the stuff is great and the

stories are terrific, and hopefully you'll check it out.
