Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc (feat. The Matrix)

Part 3.2 of IT’S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT (AND I WANT WINE)

The thrilling conclusion to our epic two-parter THE MATRIX VS. CLOUDY BAY!

If Cloudy Bay Sauvy B is so ubiquitous, how has Scott not heard of it before? What is “plonk” and why doesn’t New Zealand make any? Why is Jamie so tickled by his choice to pair this landmark New Zealand wine with 1999’s THE MATRIX? How many minutes will our intrepid hosts spend arguing yet again about cat pee? What is objectively the best flavor/color of Starburst? How do YOU think Jamie would die in a Matrix-esque machine apocalypse? To find out if any of these burning questions are answered at all, you gotta take the Red Pi-  ohh shit wait, that got co-opted by assholes. Uh, follow the white triangle button? Just push Play, okay? Thanks, friends. #jamielovescatpee
