Wine Slang: Keep it on the D.L.
Sigh. The things I do in the name of research. Hunter S. Thompson I am not, however. I just traffic areas of the web better leftto folks a decade my junior.
Iwas researching a recent post and came across urbandictionary.com. In the event that you think you’re missingout on the lingo of today, I present a selection of wine related slang (pleasenote that some <most> didn’t pass the Good Grape censors).

WineSpodiodie
Foundin the song "Drink’n wine spodee-o-dee" by R&B artist StickMcGhee, and later covered by Jerry Lee Lewis. A wine spodiodie (also spelledSpodiodi) is a shot that has a layer of Port Wine on the bottom, then a layerof (cheap) bourbon, finished on the top by another layer of Port. It can alsobe made simpler by just combining port and bourbon in a glass. Some people alsocall jungle juice Spodi. The film Rolling Kansas has actor Rip Torncarrying a skin of Wine Spodiodie, defined in that film as fox urine and flatbeer.
