Putting together our appointments at primeur, I had to smile when I was on hold at Mouton, the music was so perfectly attuned to the wine: Mozart’s Magic Flute. Began to wonder what music would go with other great estates. Ideas?
Angelus: AC/DC, Hell’s Bells…
The Patricia Green Cellars theme song is “Truck Song” by Warren Zevon.
Not French nor a great estate but I’m struggling to limit Naked Winery down to two or three entries. My top picks would be Ida Maria “I Like You So Much Better When You’re Naked” or Alex Chilton “Take It Off”.
Jay-Z at Cristal?
Bevan Cellars… “Land Speed Record” - Husker Du
Scholium Project…“Free Jazz” - Ornette Coleman
Ch L’Evangile…“Jupiter” (The Planets) - Gustav Holst
Ceritas…“Moonlight Sonata” - Beethoven
Veuve Cliquot… “Pimpin’ Aint Easy”- Big Daddy Kane
Palmer - back in black (ac/dc)
DRC: Material Girl
Lafite: I Think I’m Turning Japanese
Jenkins’ alegretto - petrus
If you call the Baron de Philippe de Rothschild négociant firm you get Figaro…
Alex R.
Cheval blanc - Offenbach’s infernal gallop (god I’m like a snotty bordelaise marketing machine)
There are far too many wineries that could appropriately use “Money” by Pink Floyd.
Sorry, dupe post.
Or, staying with the theme, “Perfect Sense” by Roger Waters (“It all makes perfect sense, expressed in dollars and cents, pounds, shillings, and pence”).
DRC = Lawyers Guns and Money by Warren Zevon
Back to reality: haut Brion 4 seasons by Vivaldi
Speaking of which, any first growth (in terms of pricing):
“Snap back to reality, oops there goes gravity, . . .”
Hmmm. To me, Beethoven seems much more Mouton’s style. Mozart brings to mind Burgundy for me.
