Ep 522: 8 Top Wine Movies with Patron Bevis S.

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:  Smithsonian video on the Judgement of Paris from 2016    Somm: Elite Wine Group Suspends Master Sommeliers Six Master Sommeliers Can Be Terminated After Sexual Assault     The Wine World’s Most Elite Circle Has a Sexual Harassment Problem     Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon. Become a member today! www.patreon.com/winefornormalpeople _______________________________________________________________   Check out my exclusive sponsor, Wine Access.  They have an amazing selection -- once you get hooked on their wines, they will be your go-to!

Om Podcasten

A podcast for people who like wine but not the snobbery that goes with it. I talk about wine in a fun, straightforward, normal way to get you excited about it and help you drink better, more interesting stuff. About half the shows feature guests and are informal but educational discussions between me and a passionate wine friend –they aren't interviews. All guests are personal friends or friends of friends in wine so like any conversation between friends, we’ll talk back and forth, interrupt each other, laugh and have fun, debate tough questions, voice our opinions, and most of all, enjoy sharing our time together and with you! The Wine For Normal People book is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and many local booksellers. Back catalog available on Patreon.com/winefornormalpeople
