🌟 The Weekend Vibe You Didn’t Know You Needed (Until Now)

Let’s be honest—your week’s been loud: endless emails, that group chat that never stops, maybe even a Zoom call or two that definitely should’ve been an email. But here’s the thing: life’s too short for noise that doesn’t move you. Welcome to your weekly reset button, powered by music, wine, and coffee. 🎧🍷☕

At LmLw Radio, we don’t just press play—we curate moments. We pair a glass of something bold with a track that lingers, a groove that lifts you up, or a beat that carries you late into the night. This week is no different: from the swinging masters of jazz, to the shimmering energy of 80’s New Wave, to gospel house that soothes the soul. And our wine of the week? A powerhouse from Spain’s Priorat region that will make you rethink what a red blend can do. Trust us—you don’t want to miss what’s coming.

📢 Schedule Update

📅 Aug 18–24 → LmLw Radio will take a short break. No live shows that weekend. Don’t panic. Great things come back stronger after a little rest. 😉

🍷 WINE of the WEEK | Aug 25-31

Secret del Priorat 2022

When a wine is bold enough to carry the soul of an entire region, you know you’re in for something special. From the rugged terraces of Catalonia’s Priorat DOCa, Familia Torres brings us a blend that is as intense as it is elegant. Born from ancient llicorella (slate) soils, this red is a snapshot of Spanish power and beauty in a glass.

🍇 Grape Varietal: Garnacha, Cariñena, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot (percentages vary vintage to vintage)
🌾 Producer: Familia Torres
🌍 Region: Priorat DOCa, Catalonia, Spain
🪨 Terroir: Rugged, terraced vineyards anchored in Priorat’s iconic llicorella (slate) soils
👃 Nose: Ripe blackberries, cherries, violets, spice, graphite, Mediterranean herbs
👄 Palate: Bold and concentrated; juicy dark fruit, cocoa, mineral edge
✨ Finish: Long, silky, elegant, lingering freshness
🧱 Structure: Firm yet polished tannins, balanced acidity, aging potential
🎶 Music Pairing: 80’s New Wave – Depeche Mode, The Cure, New Order

This isn’t just a bottle—it’s an experience.
