  • S2 Ep7 - English Wines
    Sep 9 2023
    We've all heard about(and most of us have enjoyed) an English sparkling wine or two, but what about the non-sparkling? Has England really progressed to the point where we are able to produce quality still red and white wines? To find out for themselves, Richard and Oliver, together with producer Mike, travel to the heart of the Kent countryside to meet Henry and Helen and explore the delights of "The Simpson's Wine Estate". Oh and did we get to try the wines? Yes. Yes, we did.

  • S2 Ep6 - Simply Red
    Jul 24 2023
    After a bit of a break, we're back at Gordon's and this time Richard is determined to get Oliver "into" red wine. And in this endeavour, Richard is very successful and lines up a Beaujolais-village, a Côtes du Rhône a South African Syrah and a lovely Nero D'Avola for them both to sip against a backdrop of very excited and "refreshed" American tourists!

  • S2 Ep4 - Value Part I - Up and Down the Wine List
    Apr 6 2023
    How bloody much? This is a phrase Oliver is not afraid of using as a proud Yorkshireman who is very keen to get exactly what he paid for, if not substantially more. This has inspired Richard to devise an two-parter on "value", starting, as ever, at Gordon's Wine Bar. The chaps try a range of wines from the house white to the most expensive on the wine list (which is a fabulous Puligny-Montrachet, Domaine Pierre Bourée, Burgundy) and are joined by a young Gen Zer by the name of Charlie Turnbull, none other than Oliver's son, who decides not to go Dutch.
