Harley & Lara Pair the McDonald's Big Mac with Wine -- Wine and Cheeseburger

[Celerity]

On the premier of Wine and Cheeseburger, Harley Morenstein and his sommelier (he just learned that word) friend, wine whisperer Lara Amersey, are coming out buns blazin’ to find the perfect wine to pair with a McDonald’s Big Mac. Not only will Harley and Lara scrupulously sip and swirl to determine the best grapes for the job, but they’ll share some laughs and wine hacks to boot. Literally — Harley will show you how to open a bottle of wine with a boot. If you’ve ever wanted to pair wine with a burger and fries or see Morenstein with sauce in his beard, raise a glass!

Thrillist presents: Wine and Cheeseburger, featuring fry-gobbler and good dude Harley Morenstein. Wine, when not served from a box or being slapped in a bag, has a pinkies-out intimidation factor. Harley’s joined by professional wino Lara Amersey to swap all your food-pairing pains for champagne. In each episode, Harley brings an iconic fast food meal to the table, and Lara pulls up a chair with three prospective vinos. Learn all about mouthfeel, tannins and other fancy wine-speak courtesy of Lara while Harley mostly counters with chaotic energy and hacks he learned from the internet. It’s the perfect mélange! Does this mean they’ll start serving wine at drive-thrus?
