ARCHIVE TASTER: Singapore locks down

from Wine Blast with Susie and Peter Hosted by Susie and Peter

As Singapore goes into lockdown, renowned writer and publisher Poh Tiong Ch'ng reflects (from a beach) on the local and global implications of coronavirus. Including some eye-opening thoughts about the prospects for the global restaurant and hotel trade. He also has a somewhat surprising choice as his ‘quarantine wine’. We then cheat when it comes to finding a wine for delicious porcini pasta, committing heresy by looking beyond Italian wines to things that are both left-field and pretty indulgent. This episode even comes with a free book download… Wine Blast Season 1 Episode 5 (originally published 8 April 2020)
