The White, Rosé and Red Trip

Wine expert Harold Hamersma and writer Ronald Giphart have been friends for years and are both wine lovers. They make a road trip through California to visit some of the best wineries.

Ronald learns how to combine wine with food. The gentlemen go out to investigate. The question is how well different grape varieties can be combined into a wine.

Harold and Ronald meet a pioneer of winemaking in America. They eat a wine pizza and get a glimpse into the kitchen of one of the most influential restaurants in the world.

Harold and Ronald enjoy burgers, bacon and cowboys in America and wonder whether fast food and wine are a compatible combination. Do cowboys drink wine, for example? And what is the secret of a good all-American steak?

Luxury, luxury, luxury is the theme of the tasting as Harold and Ronald test whether a very expensive wine tastes much better than a cheaper one, and they find out what kind of breakfast a celebrity chef serves.

Harold and Ronald test whether the same wine tastes completely different after the first sip than the second sip. Later, they put their new tasting talents to the test in a food competition.
