The best TV show of 2022, sez us! This is the first in a 5-part series covering all of Severance Season 1, the show created by Dan Erikson, directed by Ben Stiller and Aoife McArdle, and starring Adam Scott.

Part 1: How Did This Get Made?
Part 2: Episodes 1-3 (and wine pairings with those episodes)
Part 3: Episodes 4-6 (and wine pairings with those episodes)
Part 4: Episodes 7-9 (and wine pairings with those episodes)
Part 5: Interview with Chris Black, Executive Producer and Writer on Severance

In this episode, we cover Episodes 7-9, the final episodes of Season 1, all directed by Ben Stiller, and cover the wine pairings for these episodes.

THE WINES:

DALLAS' WINE
No new wine pairing from Dallas! He says stick to the Cab Francs from the previous episodes:
2019 Red Newt Cellars Cabernet Franc, Glacier Ridge Vineyard, Finger Lakes, New York
or
2022 Domaine des Sables Verts Saumur-Champigny "Glouglou"

DAVE'S WINE
Brady Vineyard Paso Robles Cabernet Franc 2021
A warmer weather Cab Franc compared to Dallas' picks. Dave says you need the greater intensity for these intense final episodes - more extraction, more "sweetness" (not literal sugar sweetness, but jamminess), yet still with Franc's acidic and green pepper bite. The wine featured in the show is from the Lorimar Winery but that Cab Franc is not currently avaiable, so Brady Vineyard's also from Paso, is an excellent, available alternative!
