When I google "white wine and beer new orleans" I get this blog post as the top result:

http://psycho-gourmet.blogspot.com/2014/06/boozing-with-brod...

which suggests that besides one line in a movie, this isn't a thing that exists in reality. So... what else should be returned? Other websites that describe how this combination doesn't exist?

It doesn't have to return anything else. Just the entry you listed would be fine. But for me, and for my wife, that is not in the results.

Remember that your Google results are not the same as anyone else's. It's spent billions to "tailor" the results for each human on the planet. At the same time, making the results worthless.
