Surrealist Sauvy Bobby, or Grgich Hills and Un Chien Andalou
Episode 64, Apr 21, 2023, 07:00 AM
Part 3 of our Court of Master Sommeliers Curriculum miniseries
Can Jamie adequately describe the flavor of a gooseberry to his co-host? What about this iconic piece of Surrealist cinema does Scott find so nihilistic, and why does that attitude appeal to Jamie so much? Since neither host likes the thing they picked, did they accidentally make a good pairing? Grit your teeth and guard your eyeballs for a wine and a movie that are equally hard to love as you press play on this action-packed episode!

- The Grgich Hills Fumé Blanc is available from Grgich Hills Winery for $31 USD. We mentioned Crush Wine Co. in the episode and they are out of stock as of this episode’s release.
- UN CHIEN ANDALOU is a 1929 film by Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí. You can stream it legally many places online, though the print on the free purchase from Alamo Drafthouse’s VOD service is particularly handsome.
