Show Notes
This week on Bottoms Up! Alan and Lee go head to head with their biggest nemesis… orange wine! Will the boys FINALLY find one they don’t want to pour straight down the sink? They’re joined by wine expert Charles Cornelius from Barks Wine in Sheffield, and he's asking them to give it one more chance.
Charles also shares some advice on the ideal date drink and tries to convince us that English sparkling wine goes perfectly with a pork bap (thanks to Rogue Sarnies for these DELICIOUS sandwiches).
Plus, the boys discuss their run-ins with the press as Lee’s been making national headlines this week, for all the wrong reasons.
