The Weekend Binge: Hello Again 'Rebel Moon' & 'The Jinx', Travel With Conan & Orlando, Lily & Riley Together 'Under The Bridge, An Aprés Ski Chardonnay + An Artsy Doc
It's the weekend, let's binge!
Hello Weekend!
Ready to binge your way through an adventurous lineup of shows including Orlando Bloom and Conan O’Brien starring in their own travel reality series where they take viewers on exciting trips across the globe? 🌎
If you’re looking for thrills, but one that follows a script, check out Killers of the Flower Moon’s Oscar Nominee Lily Gladstone and Daisy Jones & The Six’s Riley Keough in the crime thriller Under the Bridge.
Two familiar titles back for a second go is Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon: Part Two and the chilling Robert Durst Docuseries The Jinx: Part Two.
Keep scrolling to see my sip & stream pairing for the week which includes a Chardonnay I actually like (I’m so incredibly picky about my Chards, crisp and cool - yay! - buttery - yuck!)

Sip & Stream: Kusama Infinity + Rombauer Chardonnay
A few years ago my sister Jennifer and I got a chance to go to the Botanical Gardens in the Bronx and see the gorgeous Kusama exhibit. Absolutely beautiful larger-than-life sculptures from the top selling female artist in the world. A 2018 documentary is now available for streaming on Hulu about artist Yayoi Kusama who overcame impossible odds to bring her radical artistic vision to the world. You might have experienced the wonder of her artistry if you’ve been to her mesmerizing Infinity Mirrored Rooms at museums across the world.
2022 Rombauer Vineyards Chardonnay
I’m up in Mammoth for the weekend enjoying the gorgeous spring weather (65 degrees!) in beautiful snow-capped landscapes. The perfect wine for this weekend is a Rombauer Chardonnay. This is not your mama’s Chardonnay. This Chardonnay’s buttery texture comes from vanilla. You’ll get aromas of yellow peach, mango, vanilla, and spice on the nose while the palate is rich with both mango and vanilla dueling it out for the smooth finish.
Happy Streaming! 📺 🍷
