Transcript

That free wine brings you the case book of Gregory Hood. Tonight's the Petri family, the family that took time to bring you good wine, invites you to listen to the story of the sad clown.

Another exciting adventure from the case book of Gregory Hood, and from the recipe book of Petri Wine, comes a wonderful suggestion for dessert. Serve canned peaches in Petri, California, must-get-tell. Believe me, there's a perfect combination for you.

Juicy, sweet, golden peaches with the perfect wine for peaches, Petri Muscatel. And talk about easy to fix. It's simple. Open a can of peaches and boil down the juice until it's slightly thickened. Then mix that syrup with twice the amount of Petri Muscatel, pour over the peaches and chill for two hours.

And wait till you taste that dessert. It's absolutely delicious. Of course, it would be with Petri Muscatel, muscatel because petri muscatel is something special in wine. It's a clear golden wine with a full rich flavor that's wonderful with peaches or any kind of fruit. And remember, you can serve petri muscatel proudly because those five letters, P-E-T-R-I,

fell the proudest name in the long history of fine wine, Petri. Well once again it's Monday night in San Francisco and time for our weekly visit with Gregory Hood and his friend and attorney, Sanderson Taylor.

Tonight, our rendezvous is at Greg's apartment, high on Knob Hill overlooking the Golden Gate. Let's join him there, shall we? Oh, Harry Bartell, good evening, Mr. Taylor. I want to ask you where Greg is, I can hear it.

He's working on some ideas for his new sweep. I hate to disturb you. Oh, and answers, he's expecting you. Come along, Ian. Harry, you sneaked in so quietly, I didn't see you. Evening, Greg, don't stop playing.
