This week on the winery playlist...


The Flames - Everytime

Some songs just stick in your mind. When I first heard this I was driving to Weingut Max Ferd Richter in Mulheim, in the Mosel, to deliver some Lingenfelder wine (where I worked) that was to be consolidated in a shipment of German wine to the USA. Dirk Richter, the owner, let me taste through his barrels of Riesling in the underground cellar. An amazing day. I just drink the last of the wine I bought from there, a 1992 Auslese, earlier this year.

This song, by German band The Flames, featured in a the above TV commercial for AfriCola and was a massive hit in Germany, spawning a popular dance craze. Check out the full song on youtube.
