This week I welcome long-time Patron and listener, Bevis Sydney, who is not only a wine educator in the UK, but also a movie buff. He and I give our views on the top 8 wine movies, according to a poll of the Patron community and general consensus from the press on the top wine movies.

 

We discuss:

·      Sideways (2004)

·      A Good Year (2006)

·      Wine Country (2019)

·      Bottle Shock (2008)

·      Somm (2012)

·      A Year in Burgundy (2013)

·      Sour Grapes (2016)

·      Mondovino (2004)

 

Remember – movies, like wine, are subjective. You don’t have to agree with us, but you do have to be respectful in your comments! You can always skip to the next movie if you don’t like what we’re saying. It’s just wine and it’s just a movie.

 

Here are some links that we discuss in the show:
