In this episode of Cabernet Queens, Deb Lee and Matt Morgan sample a mystery red wine while catching up on travels, hotel surprises, and awkward holiday encounters. Matt returns from a red wine–fuelled cruise to Miami, while Deb shares the hilarious tale of accidentally booking a swingers resort in Cancun. They also answer a listener’s question about the most unexpected place they’ve enjoyed a great glass of wine.

Key Takeaways

Matt’s cruise comes with jet lag and melatonin gummies. Despite suffering from jet lag, Matt recounts a luxurious work trip involving sun, sea, and red wine by the pool (at 11am, no less).

Deb’s accidental stay at a swingers resort is pure comedy gold. Thinking she’d booked a quiet, adults-only hotel in Cancun, Deb finds herself at “Temptation” – a nudity-friendly, flirtation-fuelled resort with themed bars, chainmail bikinis, and some very forward poolside conversations.

Wine of the week scores highly. A deep, plummy red with a smooth finish earns praise for its drinkability, colour, and unexpected elegance.

A listener's question sparks sweet memories. Matt reminisces about sipping wine at KFC in Barcelona, while Deb recalls a scenic vineyard visit in Myanmar after a chaotic mountain bike ride.

Best Moments

“We didn’t get turned away for being underdressed… we were overdressed!”

“I compliment everyone on their shoes, who knew it was code for swinging?”

“It’s got to be a really shit wine for us to say it’s awful.”

“Deb, you've never been to Barcelona? Right, we're going for your 60th.”
