Today we’re pairing the iconic Vietnamese banh mi with three very different wines in a blind wine pairing challenge with legendary chef Dan Hong. You’ve seen Dan on MasterChef, The Streets, and at Mr. Wong, Ms G’s and El Loco — but today, we test his love of wine in the most unexpected way.

We each choose a bottle under $200 and put it to the test with a classic Vietnamese banh mi to see which wine matches best with pâté, coriander, chilli, pork and pickles. Will it be a white, sparkling, or a red wine? The result surprised all of us.

In this episode, we talk food, Burgundy, childhood snacks, Asian flavours, and Dan’s wine journey — along with his thoughts on wine and food pairing, collecting Burgundy, and why wine shouldn’t be taken too seriously. Come hang out, grab a banh mi, pour a glass, and enjoy the ride.

If you love wine pairing, Asian food, banh mi, Burgundy, Champagne, or Dan Hong, you’ll love this one. 

Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to  ⁨@TheWinedUp⁩   — and tell us in the comments: What wine would YOU pair with banh mi?  👇

Thank you to Dan Hong for taking the time to chat with us and share his love of wine and food.  We had a great time and a lot of laughs.

Also try Banh Mi Bay Ngo at 49 Bankstown City Plaza, Bankstown, New South Wales 2200.  It was delicious!

Today, we’re diving into history you can taste—wines crafted from 120-year-old vines with roots stretching back to Roman times. Welcome to our unfiltered wine journey, where we explore the stories, tools, and techniques behind the glass.

In this episode we’re reviewing Curtis Family Vineyard Wines from McLaren Vale. These bottles don’t just carry flavor; they carry centuries of tradition, tracing back to 1471 Italy and even the Roman Empire.

Stick around for our Fast Five Fun Facts on Curtis Family Vineyards, and join us as we sip through a lineup of Grenache, Shiraz, and Cabernet Sauvignon from the heart of McLaren Vale.

We’ll also put the Ah-So wine opener to the test—live—showing you how it stacks up against traditional corkscrews. Plus, we break down the science of how to properly smell wine (yes, even the double-nostril vs single-nostril debate) so you can level up your next tasting experience.

This week we ask the question of whether you can get great wines at great value? We get it, times are tough and wine is a luxury product, but that doesn’t mean that it all must cost an arm and a leg. We have a bit of fun with the price is right style blind tasting to identify to see if Jase can value the wines correctly.

We reflect on our visit the “Exhilarating wines from Western Australia” event at the Rocks, Sydney. We chat about why more and more people aren’t discovering aged white wines? We discuss wine games to hone our tasting skills.
